    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally praised for its engaging and energetic soundtrack, which enhances the workout experience and keeps players motivated. However, some users find it repetitive and express a desire for more music options or the ability to stream personal favorites. Overall, while the soundtrack contributes positively to the game's vibe, its execution leaves room for improvement.

    • “Good soundtrack keeps it interesting for long enough, gets you fit, nice that you've got a counter on one of your wrists so you can check how many you've done so far, achievements, what more could you ask for?”
    • “Music is non-offensive and gets meditative after your first couple hundred squats.”
    • “Who would have thought that being in a low poly 80's gym with electro pumping music and a scoreboard comparing me to the world would make squatting fun.”
    • “Great concept, great presentation, banging soundtrack, but awful, awful execution.”
    • “Music is a bit repetitive, but at least you can turn it off.”
    • “I kept thinking there has to be an end, but it seemed like it was going forever; the music and body-shaped tunnels still haunt my sleep...”

    The humor in the game is derived from its absurd and challenging mechanics, leading to hilarious situations that provoke uncontrollable laughter among players and spectators alike. Users find the experience both amusing and torturous, often describing it as a "sadistic punishment" that becomes a source of entertainment when shared with friends and family.

Overall, the graphics are considered adequate for a free game, contributing to the fun despite their simplicity.

    • “The game's graphics are great and totally immersive.”
    • “Very fun, very well-functioning little pain-in-the-ass. It does as it says brilliantly, and despite the rudimentary graphics, there's an immediate upswing: it's working and it's for free!”
    • “The graphics are rudimentary and disappointing, which detracts from the overall experience.”
    • “While the gameplay is enjoyable, the graphics leave much to be desired.”

  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is engaging but can be confusing at first, as players may struggle to understand the mechanics, leading to initial losses. However, once the mechanics are grasped, the unique challenges, such as navigating inverted hurdles in a surreal environment, become clearer and more enjoyable.

    • “The only quibble I'd mention is that it's not immediately clear what the mechanics of the game are, so you're likely to lose a few rounds without quite knowing why. However, in retrospect, it becomes obvious that you're doing inverted hurdles in a room full of telekinetic amputees.”
