Author here: I'm curious if anyone took the time to complete the text adventure?

I got a bit stuck.

(I got the 5 items. Somehow lost :key-code. I think I inadvertently duplicated :close-paren and :unlock-function, though I have no idea how.

In :utility-room, the "bookcas " is missing an e.

When the mouse is over one of those inline-eval boxes, "scroll up" works, "scroll down" does not.

edit: oh, I was trying to play the whole game before the rest of the article too … so that was probably harder than it needed to be ^_^

edit: (pop) seems to be what screws up my inventory, dropping multiple items from the stack, but if :a :b are dropped, they end up as like :b :b ?

edit: I think I beat it? I got to exit-to-freedom, which I'm assuming is the end.

I probably made the puzzle harder than it needed to be...

I fixed the sp error in the utility room.

I think I beat it, assuming reaching exit-to-freedom is the win condition.

I think it's (pop) that screws up my inventory? Seems like it pops two things, and one becomes the other.

Is it possible to ^r on iphone?

I believe you may be able to do it with a 3rd party keyboard app. I was able to use one for my Android phone, just unsure what's available for iOS.
