Ring Fit Adventure is a motion sensing game (體感游戲) on Switch developed by Nintendo last year. Wearing a sensor (感應(yīng)器) called "joy-con" on your knee and holding a big "ring" can make you start your fantastic journey as a superhero to beat the bad people. It turns a role-play game (RPG) into exercise. What you need to do is to keep moving and do all kinds of motions like deep squat (深蹲) or sit-up (仰臥起坐). If you want to unlock more motions you have to go further of the story in the game.

When you first enter the game, you have to put in the physical information such as age, weight, hours of daily sports and so on. The game will raise the difficulty if you are a strong guy with the habit of doing sports. If you are a girl who never does sports, you don't need to worry, either. The game will become easier. You can be a powerful and magical superheroine in the game as well. Also, in order to avoid getting hurt, every time you start the game, it will give you a clear instruction of warm-up activities. Without warm-ups, you can never enter the game. While you are playing the game, it reminds you to drink water and have a break from time to time. If you play the game for over 20 minutes, the game will advise you to stop the game and replay next day.

Just as Michael, one of the users, said, "Ring Fit Adventure has changed traditional ways of doing sports and playing games. I can use physical exercise to play games in which everything just fits right and I can never put down my ring."
