Game Gets Families Active Indoors

Posted: 11/12/2010

You and your family can run, jump, play and explore exotic locales from the comforts of home.

(NAPSI) - It’s getting colder and wetter and the days are getting shorter, but that’s no reason the whole family can’t relive the fun of being outdoors all year-round. Even if caught snowed-in you don’t have to be caught hibernating when you can turn your own living room into an active life room.

A new game, ACTIVE LIFE EXPLORER, can help. Players take on the role of a treasure hunter and explore exotic locales. Stop a getaway train, catch a bandit on horseback, run across a falling bridge, escape a dark mine on a cart and more. You control the action by running, jumping, hopping and skipping so it can be a fun way to get everyone active and their hearts pumping.

The Game

Here’s a look at some of its fun features:

• There are multiple modes of gameplay. You can play themed tours in the story-based Treasure Adventure mode or take on individual challenges in the Free Play mode for lots of replayability.

• There’s a lot to explore—24 action-packed activities that can get the whole family moving with jungle, Western, underwater, flying, snow themes and more.

• There’s plenty of fun for plenty of people. You can play with up to four players simultaneously with both cooperative and competitive challenges or take turns exploring with as many as eight players with the game’s Party Mode.

• There’s an ACTIVE LIFE Mat Controller, a specially designed mat controller bundled with the game so you can jump right into the action with a Nintendo Wii. The game is also available as a stand-alone.

• Using the ACTIVE LIFE Mat Controller to play is also a great, functional fitness tool, which you can make part of your family’s fitness routine that’s both a great workout and enjoyable for all skill levels-in fitness and gaming.
