About

In Muscle March, a team of international bodybuilders find out that their protein powder has been stolen, while they were busy flexing their muscles. They must give chase to the malevolent thief and recover it. The player chooses to control one of these seven bodybuilders, and together with several other team-mates follows the thief as he smashes his way through the walls of the level. While plunging into the walls, he strikes different poses and the bodybuilders must copy them if they want to pass safely. The player can match one of the four poses using the Wiimote and Nunchuk.

One by one, all the other bodybuilders slip on banana peels and fall graciously out of the race, while the thief gets gradually faster. Eventually, the player will remain the last one standing and will have to perform a takedown on the culprit by furiously shaking both the Wiimote and the Nunchuk. If this fails, the race continues until another opportunity arises. Hitting a wall removes one of five stamina points. Once all the stamina is lost, it's game over, but the same stage can then be replayed with maximum stamina. The single-player mode features three levels (City, Village and Space Station) with three stages each. The multiplayer mode (Endless Rush) is an endless rainbow level where the speed increases by 5 or 1 MPH after every five walls. Up to four players take turns to see who can survive the longest.
