It is true the instructions are not that great. The kids seem to just go at it and do it where I like to read instructions. :o That's where this forum comes in I guess. Lots of friendly helpful people here and if you check out the stats page you will find out all the levels in games that are available.

Your best guide to the games is this forum. There's usually somebody on here that can answer a question about any game on Fit Plus. We all have different favorites and have picked up tips here and there. Feel free to ask about anything.

Thanks for the welcome and the advice. This seems like a friendly group!

I LOVE the cycling, but I have trouble following real maps, much less finding my way around a digital landscape. I've been known to be so lost I ended up in the wrong state.... three times... (not a joke). So the combination of stepping on the Wii board, steering with the controller, reading messages that pop up, and navigating is, shall we say, challenging for me!! It takes me forever to find all the flags. I end up doing a lot of wandering around hunting for them, never sure exactly where I am. I guess the upside is I'm getting a LOT more exercise this way! LOL

Up to now I've just been doing a 5 to 10 minute warm up before going on to the yoga and strength exercises. Since starting the cycling as my warm-up that's been creeping up. Today I ended up doing 35 minutes of cycling!! My legs were shaking when I was done. I really got a good workout and hardly realized it at the time, I was having so much fun looking for the flags.

Still if anyone knows how to implant a map of the island in my head, I'm all for it. :)

I do think you should look at the map in the manual despite it all. I never realized there was a back side of the island until I did that! Then I went looking for it and it was a whole new world. Well, I found the ruins at least.

And you can see generally where the town is compared to the volcano, the peninsula, the resort, etc. That might, maybe, just might help. :D

I agree that the instructions aren't really great, but the thing is to just try things out, work on them, in the knowledge that whatever you are doing, you are getting fit. :D

I'm now working on Rythm Parade. I had seen my husband do it and thought, that's not for me, but I decided to give it a go yesterday. Yesterday I was at 391 points and today I am up to 448 points. We'll see how tomorrow goes. It's all good fun. :)

I tried Rythym Parade the other day. I'm really bad at it! Apparently I have no sense of rythym whatsoever. I think even the dog was laughing at me. lol.

Hi :)
I've just started to get into rhythm parade and I really like it. I get confused as the thud of the feet seems to lag slightly behind the whistle so I keep getting told I'm out of step - grr!
