Peach Blast: Workout Games

Peach Blast is an arcade cabinet that makes you sweat. The only in-app purchase is tomorrow's soreness. Prop your phone against something sturdy, step back until the camera can see your knees, and play. A squat fires the cannon. A step changes lanes. Reach overhead and something usually explodes. There are 15 games in here. In Grand Peach Larceny you're a getaway peach outrunning the law, and your legs do the steering. In Peach Jam Session you play lead in a fruit band by hitting your reps on the beat. Call of Booty sends Private Peach to defend the orchard. There's volleyball on a beach, a zombie night, a pyramid to build one squat at a time, and a very determined peach rolling downhill. Some of these games are dumb on purpose. All of them count real reps. The best way to play: mirror your phone to a TV (Smart View or Screen cast on most phones), then prop the phone up facing you. The phone stays the camera and the controller, and the game fills the living room. Privacy, plainly: everything runs on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no analytics, nothing collected. The camera is processed on the device and never leaves it. The whole thing works in airplane mode. No equipment, no subscription, no controller. You are the controller.
