Sarah (7798 KP) rated Ring Fit Adventure in Video Games
Jan 9, 2020
The idea and concept of this game is great. The resistance ring and the leg strap for the joycons are a wonderful invention and a great modern update of the functionality of the Wii Fit. No more balancing on a board! The resistance ring itself is a surprisingly decent bit of kit, I was expecting something rather cheap & flimsy feeling, but it's actually decently made. I wouldn't recommend wearing lycra style pants though with the leg strap as it constantly slides down if you do!
The idea to have a fitness game that actually has a story and plot like a normal video game is also a genius move. The game looks a lot of fun and the inclusion of non story mode gameplay like mini games and normal exercises is also good to mix it up a bit. The problem with the story and the game in general is that the large majority of the exercises are weight/resistance based, even the exercises involving the legs are mostly squats or crunch type exercises. I'm sure this may not be a problem for most people but for me I personally prefer cardio style exercises with a few bits of resistance etc thrown in. The only really cardio you get in this is the jogging around the levels and it isn't enough. The monster battles that involve the exercises too are very repetitive. I can happily spend an hour in a cardio or zumba class yet after 20 minutes on this I was bored senseless.
I bought this so I had an at home exercise option for when I didn't feel like going to the gym, but in all honesty I dont feel like I got much out of it. Which is a shame as I can really appreciate what they've tried to do here. If you're looking for a bit of fun while toning up your arms, legs etc then this game is probably perfect for you. But if you're like me and are looking for a decent workout (and also struggle sticking with exercise in general), then this game probably isn't for you.
Caeli and her small group of friends want to help. They will assist Caeli and her people and their group of resistance mean. Is there a spy along the way for Marcus and his army. You will need to read to find out. Caeli comes back to help her group of resistance friends like Jon. What are they keeping them and what are they doing to the children.
Will the people stand up and fight or will they let some tell them what to do? Will Derek and Cali love survive? A world is torn between them too. Derek loves Caeli enough to stay with her? There are so many surprises and twist along the way, you will be to wanting turn the page to find out.
Tabitha Lord gives you the adventure of your life and a book you will not want to put down. The plot is well written and done. You get a love story along the way. You get to know the crew as well as Derek and Caeli.
I believe this book is good for though science fiction but also I would suggest teens to read it from the age of 14 and up. The parent has the right to decide. It being rated PG 13 so it would be okay for 13 years old if you the parent this your child or children are mature enough for the book. That is up to you.
