Once completed, the kids can then play online and socialize with their friends. Once their playtime is exhausted, thay get "pulled back" out of their online game and need to completed additional exercises to earn more playtime.

And assuming you even get done before that warning goes off, where's a save point?! I mean, sure, there's usually one right near a boss, but where?! Heck, it doesn't matter. I'm just gonna have to hurry up and get to the world map and-

What was that suggestion you had? A hammer? Ah, yes, that will do.
