Now this is FUN for your Wii!
OK, let me start this off by saying I'm a 55 year old woman. I do NOT like "organized exercise" - i.e., going to the gym, classes, videos like Pilates etc. In fact I rather detest them. All THAT being said - I LOVE this game!

It gets me jumping, literally. And I enjoy it. Who would have thought THAT! It's good not only for getting my heartrate up but it's also great for improving my balance. There are a lot of games included, for one person or two - my son and I enjoyed playing together and laughed a lot.

I also have the Wii Fit and between these two games I can get a workout without suiting up, driving anywhere, becoming bored or otherwise irritating myself. I highly recommend it for adults AND kids!

Excellent fitness for kids!
My grand kids love this challenge. It gives them the exercise they miss in the winter months. I highly recommend this and have been in stores this season while others are pondering over buying it and I have recommended it to customers.
My grand kids are 6 and 7, and I have played it with them.

Very fun!
Let's put it this way: this is a very fun game at first. The concept is awesome, most of the games are so fun that you just want to play them over and over. The only bad thing about this game is that, obviously, you get a pretty good workout, so the games (which usually get progressively harder during every "challenge") wear you out. And with up to six activities in one challenge (with no break), you begin to wonder why you're playing the game when you start losing more.

Regardless, however, this game is definitely worth buying. There are only one or two games (out of around ten) that I do not enjoy. Most of the games vary in concept, which helps you get a better workout. The only games that get annoying after awhile are the Sprint Challenge (in which you just act like you're running on the pad), the Timber Trail (same as the Sprint Challenge except you have to jump over logs), and the Roller Skating Challenge (same as Sprint Challenge except on roller skates and you have to look out for segments of the floor that randomly disappear).

Overall, I would say this is a game that deserves to at least be checked out, because it keeps you entertained with a single player mode (the "Outdoor Challenge"), Workout Mode, and Multiplayer mode. It is a good game and I look forward to future Active Life games in the future.
