Ring Fit Adventure comes with one of the weirdest weird JRPG -style turn-based combat games you’ve ever seen.

The game is structured like a classic Final Fantasy RPG —think a very basic Final Fantasy .

The following simply reflects my personal experience using these so-called “exergames”.

Nintendo Switch's Ring Fit Adventure is one of the few games to use an IR sensor on the right Joy -Con controller to track your movements.

Each battle has you perform multiple repetitions (reps) of one of six equipped exercises.

The more time I spent with Ring Fit, the more it had me move muscles and muscle groups in ways unaccustomed to.

Fitness Boxing 3 is a more cardio-intensive option than Ring Fit Adventure .

It's a more fun way to kickstart your fitness journey, especially during the bleakest points of the year .

Nintendo says it's a far more accessible and fun way for those struggling to get started.
