My son and his girlfriend constantly play this game at her house. It was so exciting when I gave it to him for his birthday. He's sucking it, so he's enjoying the workout! This is a different brand but almost the same. This is a great cardo+ for kids. It was so easy to set up. I honestly like it for the whole family because it makes training less of a chore. Make sure you have AAA batteries, an open HDMI port on your TV, and enough space. However, you do not need a controller. Everyone appreciates it, so I would definitely recommend it.
