    This is definitely not an app that should be charged for. If it was, it wouldn't be worth more than 59p

    It's basically the convergence of games into modern day life. There's a lot of interesting stuff by Jesse Schell about this concept. I believe that the extreme idea is to turn every day anything into a form of game, not strictly a video game, more just a digital game because we are a digital generation. Foursquare and GoWalla are the other examples of this.

    Intellectualizing over, EPIC WIN Cheesecake! Fun app, room for improvement but damn do i want another 100 points for doing my washing...

    Yes, absolutely! That Jesse Schell talk is amazing. I did want to talk about that kind of stuff in the review, but it just got too long and unweildy for what's basically a short blog on an iPhone app. I think a feature on everything becoming a game is probably needed :)
