Trainer gives players the responsibility of caring for creatures who all have dietary and fitness needs. Unlike any other title currently on the market, the Player actually trains with the creatures. When one of the creature exercises, so does the Player! Both benefit from this shared activity.
The primary goal of Trainer is to give players the opportunity to discover, seek and share health information. Through experiential learning, Players will quickly gain insight into how nutrition and fitness impacts their daily lives - removing many of the stigmas surrounding diet and exercise. Furthermore, through a customized gameplay experience, Players will be encouraged to exercise on a regular basis – attaining their fitness goals both in-game and in real life!
