Ring Fit Adventure is a super fun video game that also gets your heart pumping! It will make you work, but you won’t even notice you are doing it! Thanks Nintendo for sending me a copy to check out for review!
If you have been following me on Instagram lately, you know I am currently on a fitness journey. I don’t need to lose a ton of weight, but I do need to lose some. My main goal however is to just get more fit and healthy in general. I want to be around a long time for my kiddos — what parent doesn’t? So I was THRILLED when Nintendo offered to send me Ring Fit Adventure.
I admit, this was something I always wanted to check out, but didn’t want to splurge on. Well I feel totally silly now because it is well worth the price. And then some. My family immediately dove into playing it and we had a blast! There are a ton of minigames which are perfect for competitive families like us. We are always trying to one up each other and this is a great way to do it — while working out!
Our favorite game to compete in is the Rhythm Mode. There are tons of songs you can “dance” along to while squeezing and extending your ring. Plus, I really like that there are different levels — light, medium, and hard — for the ring so the kiddos can have a good time with it too. Watch out for that torso twist — you might be sore in the morning (which is a great thing!).
Trust me when I say that some of these games are intense. Super fun, yes, but be prepared to break a sweat! That is what I love about Ring Fit Adventure. It is perfect for family game night, and also gets our blood pumping!
There is also an adventure mode which I have started doing. I play for about thirty minutes every morning and have been loving it! A great way to kick off the day and get my body moving. Plus, being the completionist that I am, I am determined to complete all 100 levels.
About Ring Fit Adventure
Traverse grass-swept plains by jogging in place, attack enemies with overhead shoulder presses, and refill your health meter by striking some yoga poses. Two new accessories, the Ring-Con™ and Leg Strap, measure your real-world actions and help turn them into in-game movements. With additional minigames and customizable workout routines, Ring Fit Adventure is great escape for players of all skill levels and schedules.
In Adventure mode, defeat enemies with attacks based on real-world exercises as you traverse more than 100 levels in over 20 worlds. As you work through each level (and possibly work up a sweat), you’ll earn experience points. Between fights, you may encounter some unusual methods of transportation such as squat-powered launch pads. Then, pass around the Ring-Con and leg strap accessories and select from a few minigames: break boxes with gusts of air, craft pottery using squats, and more.
