Fitness Dash: Get DinerTown in Shape for the Tug-of-War Competition!
Fitness Dash is a fun and challenging game that will help you get in shape and have a blast! Help Jo whip DinerTown into shape and lead them to tug-of-war victory at the Mount Olympus Gym!
As the game begins, Jo is jogging through DinerTown when she notices her fellow residents gobbling up double bacon burgers at Flo’s Diner just days before the annual tug-of-war competition. Appalled, she urges them to stop or risk losing to the Meatropolis Mashers, but, alas, they ignore her warning and lose the competition.
Dismayed by her friends’ lack of fitness, Jo decides to take matters into her own hands. She opens a gym and vows to get DinerTown into shape for the next competition. And that’s where you come in!
As a player, you’ll help Jo whip DinerTown into shape by leading them through a variety of exercises. You’ll start off with simple exercises like jumping jacks and squats, but as you progress, you’ll unlock more challenging exercises like push-ups and pull-ups.
Each exercise is timed, and you’ll earn points for completing each exercise correctly. The faster you complete the exercise, the more points you’ll earn. You can also earn bonus points for completing exercises in a row.
As you earn points, you’ll level up and unlock new exercises and challenges. You’ll also earn rewards like new clothes and accessories for Jo.
Fitness Dash is a great way to get in shape and have fun at the same time. The game is challenging but also rewarding, and you’ll be amazed at how quickly you start to see results.
