The game would include computer geneated situations in which you would do chores, this is most sutable for the old as it involves no parts where they would become afraid and therefor, they would not have a heart attack.

Flow http://trumpet.sdsu...304/web304/flow.htm
A psychology professor with the wonderful name of Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (chick-sent-me-high-ee) has been writing popular books about happiness while playing or working, a state he calls "Flow". Being adequately challenged is an important part. [jutta, Jul 08 2000]

       My favourte game for the elderly is to sit comfortably with a packet of chokkie-bikkies and flick "random" in the Halfbakery. Best part of it. Congrats to the member who thought of it.

       Makes me think of the Nintendo game "Harvest Moon". Or, to a certain extent, any non-combat-oriented sim game (Sim City, The Sims, etc.)
