Fun:
What can I say? The biggest waste of £20 I've ever spent. This game is dreadful, unimaginitive, unchallenging, unresponsive and you can cheat to your hearts content.
Within half an hour I guarantee you'll be bored to tears. Apart from measuring your weight the balance board plays no other part in any of the exercises, you just stand on it basically, shuffling from one leg to the other.
Most of the time you'll spend your time jogging. I don't recommend using the balance board because then all you can do is move your arms around. Without the balance board, well you can run on the spot as fast as your little legs can go but it won't make the person on screen go any faster. If you're feeling tired or just plain bored of running on the spot you could sit on the sofa and just wave you arms around, as long as you've got the controllers in your hand the avatar will keep on running. Rowing the canoe is a joke. Wave your hands in any old direction and the canoe will just sail along no problem, same goes for the monkey swing frame. Jumping through the tyres is just plain daft, you jump with your arms! Firing the canon? search me how that one works, I can't make head nor tale of it.
Do yourself a favour, keep your money in your pocket, put on some fast, funky music and wave your hands in the air like you just don't care, you'll get just as fit and have loads more fun

Fun:
This has to be the biggest waste of money I have made on the wii so far. It is very frustrating, the graphics are very poor & the response to your movements are terrible.
Like others have said you can cheat as using the Wii board makes the exercises more restrictive as you can't jog on it.
I certainly wish I had read the reviews first before purchasing this & doesn't come anywhere near close to the Wii active or any other Wii exercise programme.

Fun:
I purchased this today and will be returning it tomorrow. The graphics are amateur and i couldnt get it to work properly.
If you want proper workouts go and buy wii-active - it works, I would definately recommend it!

Worst wii game ever
I'm sorry I didn't read the reviews first. I trusted too much the brand so I bought it. Big mistake. You can't do anything. It doesn't recognize your movements, whatever you do. Read more

Big disappointment
This game is no good, too cartoonish, even if you're a big fan of Jillian Michaels don't waste your money.

Absolutely appalling
This was utterly dreadful.
It was boring - with no sense of doing anything useful. If you are looking for a game to help with fitness - then give this a wide berth. Read more
