My Niece Loves It!!!!
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my niece with autism and it was a total hit!!!! This is great for children on the spectrum and great for adults as well. It is great for any person of any age with or without autism. It already came with a few games and it does come with a few plan options to add more games. It surprised us that she’d given up three hours of being on the iPad just to play with the NEX Playground system. She loves to play bowling and wack a mole. It has had such a positive effect on her. This product is pretty pricey, however, I bought this during a prime day sale months before Christmas so it wasn’t that bad. It was well worth the price since she’s head over heals with the games and being that my niece is sensory sensitive we thought she’d be overwhelmed or over stimulated; it surprised us all that it has left a positive effect on her.

Was not prepared for how much fun this would be!
We have grandchildren at our house frequently so I’m always on the lookout for something to keep them entertained, especially in the winter months. We have a Switch console but that has lost its charm and sat unused for some time. The grandkids are active, but there’s only so much you can do indoors. I came across the Nex and decided to check it out and wow was I surprised at how well it works. I am 6’4″ and my granddaughter is about 4′, but we can still play multiplayer games together with no issues. Some games can really make you move, and watching the grandkids huffing and puffing after a video game is awesome. They love it. Get the 1 year pass – so many fun, creative games! I’m getting a little exercise too.

Parent- and toddler-approved
First, as a UX and graphic designer, I love the design of everything about the Nex Playground. Opening it was easy, and setup was understandable and easy for anyone. The onboarding was fun and creative. I wish there were more games in the catalog, but the games available were definitely worth the buy. This is great for apartment living and during the cold winter when your toddlers can’t go outside; it solves many sensory issues. Keeping my kids active and keeping me in shape at the same time with a variety of creative activity games is amazing, and it makes for great family game nights. If you are looking for something fun for your kids that keeps them active, this is the buy for you. As a father of two toddlers with autism, I can honestly say this brings me back to when I had an Xbox Connect as a kid and I am happy my kids will be able to experience what I experienced. Looks good with my other systems.

First video game system for my son with Down syndrome & workout for me!
We absolutely love this thing! This is perfect for our son with Down syndrome, not only so he can play video games with his neurotypical friends but so he can be active at the same time!Unlike other motion based video game systems in the past, the Nex works perfectly! There’s no tricking it with hand motions only. You have to move your body to play the games or dance.Speaking of dance, their Starri game (their version of beat saber) is my new workout routine! They have a decent number of songs that come with the system. But if you get their subscription service, you can unlock all their songs. Starri even tells you how many calories you have burned each dance as well as in total for that session. I haven’t exercised seriously for over 16 years, so this is perfect for someone getting back into the game and so much fun!!The system comes with 5 games: fruit ninja (my son’s favorite game), a whack a mole game (1-2 players), a mini game version of Mario party (1-2 players), a soccer goal game and the Starri beat saber like game (1-2 players).The Starri game is definitely my favorite. Not only does it tell you how many calories you burn, you can see 3 different levels of difficulty so you will definitely get a good workout no matter what. I like the slash versus the touch version. The slash has you slash with an arrow for the direction you have to slash to as well as which hand (yellow for left and blue for right), touch when you see single lines/bars, lean to either avoid the X or to lean into the wide bars of various lengths and a crystal to slash both hands fast at the same time. It’s very difficult for me at the starting level, so I know I will get a lot out of this game.My teenager has beat saber using their meta quest (previously known as oculus) system, but you have to wear a headset. We also have beat saber for the PlayStation. But you need to hold the light based receivers to play. And neither has the accuracy and fluidity of Starri. Plus, you just do your stuff with nothing to hold or wear, which you will appreciate since you will work up a good sweat using this (especially since you can’t trick the system).The system itself is a small cube a bit larger than the size of a Rubix cube. There’s a magnetic cover to protect the lens. It comes with a power adapter and hdmi cord. All you have to do is plug it into an outlet and plug the hdmi into your tv, connect it to WiFi and then finish setup on your phone (there is no app) or tablet using the QR code on the tv. Very easy to setup and you will be playing with no time!We also got a carrying case and a silicone case for the Nex cube and remote. We plan on taking this to friends and family as well as on vacation, so the compact size is much appreciated. With everything inside the case, it’s smaller than most lunch boxes.So far as I can tell, the Nex mainly uses your upper body since none of the games we have played so far uses the legs or feet, which makes sense. The camera is very quick to adjust to where your body is, although you can’t be too close to the camera or else it won’t detect your body. We haven’t gotten the subscription yet but plan to. So I can’t wait to see what else Nex has in store for us!

Smooth gameplay for all ages
I’ll start with the company and their customer service which is exceptional. Needed a replacement cord and the service I received and speed of shipping were better than any company I have dealt with in a very long time. Quick responses, super fast resolution and very friendly and informative.As for game play…. The game itself is very easy to play and the responsiveness to your body movements is very smooth. In our family we have people playing from ages 67 down to 3 and we all are absolutely loving it.Another great plus is that we live in Minnesota and the winters get very long and sedentary. This game gets the energy out for the little ones with the great selection of kids games and keeps us older adults moving with both the games and the workout routines.This little game cube provides ease of use, small and compact size and something for everyone to enjoy.I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants either themselves or their little ones to get up and get moving. It’s fun exercise!
