Nintendo knows how to appeal to a casual crowd. The history and legacy of Wii Fit still rings true with those that remember the years when everyone had a Wii Balance Board underneath the TV.

Impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash.

Ring Fit Adventure is a really nice surprise. What could easily have been a bland experience aimed at the casual crowd is actually a proper video game that’s bursting with Nintendo’s usual charm. On its own, the core RPG element is a substantial offering, so when you add in the minigames and custom workouts it’s actually one of the best all-round packages of the year, particularly as the Ring-Con is an expertly crafted accessory could easily be used in future games. Sure, some of the tracking functionality feels a bit wonky, battles are a bit on the grindy side, and no amount of of playtime is going to earn you the physique of The Rock. But even serial gym-skippers will find something to like in Ring Fit Adventure, and I’m determined to keep crushing that Ring-Con until the world is safe from blusterous weight-lifting dragons.

Ring Fit Adventure offers an inventive fitness RPG that doesn’t quite have all the moves.

This exercise-focused peripheral might not be for everyone, but if you want to spice up your boring workout with a light-hearted adventure game then the Ring Fit Adventure might be for you. It's a great way to fit in some exercise under the guise of an RPG. Just don't expect it to be as effective as the gym.

Surprisingly fun RPG; Targets specific muscle groups; Mini-games galore; Can customize workouts;

Only works with one game at launch; Pricey peripheral; Ring has poor grip; Novelty factor may wear off

Overall Ring Fit Adventure is an enjoyable game. If you enjoy games that encourage fitness then this is one to grab. At no point is this a proper replacement for getting out and walking, or more vigorous exercise.
