Walk It Out! is a unique blend of simulation, action, rhythm and exercise gameplay. The game's main campaign, known as Stepping Mode, exists in an area known as "Rhythm Island", can be played in single player or local two-player simultaneous and challenges players to explore a gameworld that grows with every literal step taken through it. These steps are patterned after the rhythm of the songs of the in-game soundtrack, which are tapped/stepped out using the game controllers supported. These include the Wii Remote/Nunchuk, the Wii Balance Board and the DDR controller for Wii. Tracks are of various speed and tempo, which the player can alter through difficulty settings. The game features a moving indicator line, known as the "Stepping Guide" that helps players keep in tune with the beat, and the displaying of lyrics, which for some can be helpful in keeping in time, can also be suspended as the player chooses. As players walk in synch they are rewarded with in-game chips, depending on their level of accuracy. These chips can in turn be used to unlock "Event Capsules", which hold a variety of elements ranging from new songs, new paths through the gameworld and physical environmental features like zodiac constellations and rainbows. The unlocking/purchasing of events can happen as the user pauses the action to do so, or can be cued to happen as the required chips are collected. Additional features include: character customization and Mii support, your choice of a male or female AI companion, in-game song set lists, map functionality and varied camera controls for improved Event Capsule searching.
Mini-Games
Along with moving through the main campaign found within the Walk It Out! Stepping Mode, players also have the option to take a break and play a range of entertaining mini-games, some of which involve walking and some not. These include:
A take off on the iconic game Whack-A-Mole, here players try to hit as many of the "Slackie" creatures as possible with an in-game mallet, within the parameters chosen for the game. Multiple difficulty settings are available and play is possible during a single run-through of an unlocked song or set list, or by letting the song(s) loop and play as long as you like.
Psycolo is a puzzle game in which you use your ability to walk to the beat to move a cube around a gameboard collecting hearts and avoiding Slackies, all while maintaining your on-screen health through accuracy in play. The game features 3 ways to move your cube.
Another nod to Whack-A-Mole, Smash ‘n Run! again has players looking to drop the hammer on Slackies. The difference here is that players need the right size hammer, if not Slackies can fight back and drain your life. This game also incorporates the Wii Remote/Nunchuk controller configuration with your choice of DDR mat or Wii Balance Board controllers.
Game Features
- Uniquely Motivational Gameplay - Stay active and explore an in-game world where the more you move, the richer your gameworld becomes. Unlockable areas and music tracks tied to the in-game time of day ensure the discovery of new items and goodies every time you play.
- Music to Get You Going - Walk It Out! is the only fitness-focused game that keeps you in the game with great music. Move to the beat of 120 songs, including 20 licensed tracks, including masters performed by the original artists. Hits include: "Boom Boom Pow" by the Black Eyed Peas, "How Do You Sleep?" by Jesse McCartney, "La La Land" by Demi Lovato, and more.
- Track Your Achievements - Get a visual feel for how well you're doing through charts and graphs that show burned calories, distance traveled, steps taken and more.
- Wii Balance Board Compatible - Play with the peripheral of your choice, including the DanceDanceRevolution Wii controller, Wii Remote and Nunchuk or Wii Balance Board.
- Mini-game Fun - Along with exploring and unlocking the Walk It Out! gameworld, players can also engage in a series of mini-games at any time. These include: Whack-A-Slack!, Psycolo and Smash ‘n Run!.

This is my favorite Wii game so far. I have unlocked all of the pathways. I am about 50% through the game so far. I find myself getting on it and cannot stop, at least an hour. It was such great fun for those cold snowy days when I could not walk outside, or rainy days like today. I wear a pedometer and try to get in 10,000 steps a day. This is such a fun and great way to collect my steps without even realizing it. On some of the more upbeat music, I jog to the music and I really do work up a sweat after an hour of playing! Again, this is not 60 minutes on a treadmill, but a great way to get moving with low impact. I also agree with another review that it really is motivating and uplifting. Between the music and the rainbows and the scenery, I just find that it lifts my spirits while doing it and for the rest of the afternoon afterwards. You just can't beat that for the price! My husband bought the Wii for me for Christmas 1 1/2 years ago and this by far is my favorite game, although Wii Fit Plus comes in close 2nd.
I discovered a cure, however, for my boredom and reluctance to work out - and that of course is Walk It Out. When I first got this 'game' I discovered a nice thread/discussion about the software here at Amazon titled 'Share Your Results From Using Walk It Out'. The people have been inspiring, funny, and a strong motivator. I tried then to describe how I was feeling and what I was up against. That wall that I described then is slowly diminishing - the reluctance to move has been replaced by an inability, inexplicably, to STOP MYSELF FROM MOVING. Yes, old dogs can learn new tricks. I offer my initial observations from that discussion in the hopes that anyone doubting the usefulness and fun of Konami's wonderful program will doubt no longer.

I do not know if I can express this well - I will try to paint a picture of the last 5 years in a couple of sentences. I have spent the last 5 years, slowly and steadily, unhappily but on a seemingly unalterable course, of gaining 102 lbs on a frame already 45 lbs overweight. I am 5' 9.5" - I went from 243 lbs to 345 lbs. I bought Wii Fit Plus and found that I was simply Wii Fit Plus SIZE - I couldn't use the balance board; I couldn't use the title. Then I saw Walk It Out on Amazon. I have been waiting patiently, since Wii Fit Plus basically reminded me I was a Wii Bit Overboard.
I got Walk It Out last Sunday. Last Saturday I was an exhausted, overworked, underpaid, non-exerciser. I hated to exercise and didn't do it. I was too tired, too old (42), too fat (345 lbs and climbing), and too embarrassed to have anyone see me. I wouldn't go to a gym; I didn't even want to walk outside at night in my neighborhood. I just didn't want to run into ANYONE I knew who'd not seen me for awhile. But I digress. Last Sunday I got my Walk It Out.
This is now one week later. I have walked 89,000+ steps. I have burned 4,740+ calories. I have spent 6 hours and 30 minutes of game time. I have walked an unbelievable 25.1 miles. I have lost 5 lbs. I have been unable to sleep well for almost a year - the weight causing or contributing to sleep apnea. The past 7 days I would say my sleep time is nearly doubled, in that when I go to sleep I fall asleep quicker, stay asleep a bit longer, and if I wake, get back to sleep faster.
I also notice a flexibility improvement - unsure why because I am not stretching or doing anything outlandish. I just notice when I walk during the day - to my car, down the halls at work - I am not dragging my legs forward like a drowned corpse walking through wet sand but rather my legs seems to be in place as I step more easily, almost 'ahead' of me, if you get what I mean. Anyone that has suffered the burden of massive weight will know and can attest that when a sudden burst of energy takes over, or when a walk that used to be laborious is over and was a pleasure before one even noticed - it is like a shot of electricity, a bolt of hope.
And that is what Wii's Walk It Out has been for me. An invitation to grab a fistful of hope and turn the ship around. I did take a break, Friday and Saturday - and I felt guilty. I felt a bit lazy. But most of all I felt I missed out.
Walk It Out is an adventure. The exercise is an almost unconscious blessing. As you expand your routes and create the scenery around you (think 'walking through Sim City at ground level, pointing and clicking and building your metropolis - to a beat) you get lost in the fun. The music is varied - mostly modern and upbeat, some are death defying if you really try to keep to the beat - I find 'Get Your Freak On' by Missy Elliot requires me to jog in place, arms pumping (yes! Me? Arms pumping? Indeed!) and amazingly NOT STOPPING. Something I would never do if you just gave me an iPod with that same song on it and told me: head outside and jog until the end of the song. I'd get 45 seconds into it and be DREAMING of the end. And then I would stop.
Walk It Out is great fun, great exercise. I look forward to continuing on the adventure, unlocking new buildings and things - getting to 100 miles in just one month.
If someone had told me I'd set a 100 mile walking goal and that I would be more than 25% done with that goal in 6 sessions - I'd say they needed to cut out the vodka with their Twinkies.
Konami - you are giving thousands (hopefully millions) an island full of fun and a big helping of hope. Please promise us the Walk It Out series will be a long, challenging, and fun one. Thank You. From the bottom of my heart.

I really cannot believe the change - in attitude, in shape (the bags are now in my clothes, not under my eyes). I cannot believe after all this time I really CAN change myself - one step at a time.
You must give this program a try if you have ever felt worn, unable to move, unwilling to be motivated. One step at a time and you too will escape the future you thought was set in stone.

SO far I have lost over 18 lbs in a very short time frame...
Its HOW you use the game that helps you lose weight and exercise...
If you just follow lifting the heals on a balance board, you will feel like
its a waste of your time..
I use the nunchuk and a pedometer to keep track how many steps I really have taken and
instead of straight up walking... I DANCE to the music provided.
