Is that a knock on my laundry skills, Brian?

I like vacuuming myself. It’s quite possibly the only chore I’ll do without being asked. I do my own laundry though too because if I didn’t all my shirts would be wrinkled. And a proper clothes whore like myself shant have wrinkled clothes.

If my husband ever does any chore without being asked, I reward him the good old-fashioned way. In bed ;) He LOVES doing dishes!!

One thing Chore Wars does lack to make things work a little better is an approval system between players to thwart would-be cheaters.

Maybe it’s part of their “premium” package, but the ability to assign approvers per player would be nice. So Player A could be allowed to approve Player B’s tasks but not their own tasks. With the system in place now everyone would have to be a DM-style player which would make big loopholes.

But honestly, this whole real-world RPG engine is an idea I like and may investigate myself.
