As someone who spent their entire life being extremely athletic and active, I love being back in the swing of things again. I actually look forward to my Ring Fit workout everyday. I feel like people of all fitness levels can hop into this game and benefit from it. When I started this back in January I was as out of shape as it comes, and Ring Fit Adventure eased me back into things at a pace that felt comfortable. The combination of walking, Ring Fit, and elliptical has shredded pounds off of me, and I couldn't be happier about that!

It would be easy to dismiss it merely as a novelty, as other peripheral-based games certainly have been in the past. But that would be doing a disservice to the ingenuity with which the designers have found a way to get players to try out a workout routine and, even more impressively, stick to it.

I can rightly say that the Ring Fit Adventure is probably the best fitness game so far that console players can buy. In the past there were a lot of things you could already burn calories with, but they weren't as fun as this great piece of software. So if you want to take care of your fitness a little more and are not averse to the role-playing genre, you should definitely get this title. Even I now train regularly every other day and that will probably remain so until I am through with the story. However, you should keep in mind that you shouldn't expect proper strength training, more like endurance training. But the playful access to fitness is very successful in my opinion!

Ring Fit Adventure is an excellent cross between fitness and action/adventure. Nintendo manages to create their best exercise game yet while weaving in classic adventure tropes to gamify the experience.

Ring Fit Adventure copes with its sports task perfectly! It can be treated like a game, but it's more of a universal motivator for an active lifestyle, awakening your body in a fun way to play. The project can serve as a kind of push to buy a gym membership and make you go for a run more often. If you are already engaged in physical activity, it will be able to diversify your program for a while and definitely cheer you up.

Ring Fit Adventure is by far the best fitness game of the last years. The hardware makes perfect use of the joy con capabilities and it works surprisingly good in the different exercises. The game loses its grip a bit after some time but besides that it is probably the best way for your upcoming workouts during the cold winter months.

The RPG element has been overblown, but it provides just enough incentive for you to get up and move. More importantly, it's engaging enough to keep you on top of it well after you'd've lost interest in other exercise apps. The Ring-Con itself is a quality accessory that's easy to use, and the whole package provides mostly accurate readings and feedback.

Ring Fit Adventure isn't for everybody, but for Gym-a-phobes looking to add a bit of activity to their lives, it's a far better attempt at the gamification of fitness than Wii Fit ever was.

In that sense, Ring Fit Adventure simply hits it out of the park and never looks back. I couldn't believe how well it scaled to my needs, which Nintendo deserves a lot of praise for. Spectacular stuff through and through.

Two weeks of a workout regiment is not nearly long enough to give a full assessment of how effective it is, but it is enough time to see that Ring Fit Adventure is one well-crafted exercise game. Will it be good enough to help me overcome this lifelong struggle? Ask me again in a month and then five months after that.

The developers of Ring Fit Adventure have really thought outside the square and have delivered an enjoyable yet interesting fitness game that actually works. It's not clichéd or forced like some other console fitness games but one that uses the Ring to truly immerse you into the game that tracks your movement and in essence, turns it into real-world exercises… but more enjoyable! It's gaming meets exercising!
