Definitely need to warm up and stretch before some of the games haha! A few games are not recommended for certain individuals with physical limitations as they require some form exercise, like the jumping one, there’s a skipping one! But these games are all optional, you can just walk around and play some of the other games instead :) Great fun for me and my younger sister! Would definitely recommend 10/10 the best game was the Valo JumpRead more”
