I'm not a gamer and I would play. This would be a great way to introduce people to woodworking and it could be a learning experience at the same time. Build your skill level slowly from boxes to book shelves to that Maloof styled chair. Tom,

As I lost the opportunity to install the fence on my new table saw last night because I was setting up my kid's Wii, a woodworking game would be a great way to get into the shop without ditching the family! Tom,

In fact, you can't even 'smell' what you are cooking.... one of the pleasures of working in the kitchen. Ahhh, yes, but in the Cook or Be Cooked game, you never put a morsel of food on a plate.

First thing that comes to mind is sketchup with points. However the real achievement you get when you make something is that you can look at it everyday and be proud that you made it. I don't know if a video game could do that. That’s an interesting idea. First thing that comes to mind is sketchup with points.
