Mundane chores are all the rage in gaming
Does the forklift driving in Shenmue qualify as one of the first "mundane chores" in video gaming?

The first Harvest Moon, which a lot of these mellow games like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley follow on from, came out in 1996; Shenmue came out in 1999. I'm sure there's even earlier examples than Harvest Moon even.

Surely "Desert Bus" set the precedent for driving a commercial vehicle in video games.
