"Wish I'd thought of that..."

Maybe it's just me, but rubbing my mouse on the desk felt almost exactly like scrubbing a plate. Story-wise, no, SilverSurge was right, the kids will see right through this edutainment crap. But on a subtler, more insidious level, well... kids are scrubbing and earning experience points for it. If they grind on this 5 days a week at school during computer lab to earn wogs, it just might form a habit. Sure beats the "talk to the NPCs and then choose to do the right thing" paradigm. This invokes muscle memory! The only way it could get any purer would be to combine this with Chore Wars.
