Abstract
Social interactions motivate engagement with physical activities. This paper extends existing work on software generated partners for exercising from single-user settings to a multi-player social exergame. Initial results suggest that our Wizard of Oz agents in our game StepQuest may prolong player engagement with the game, increase their participation in moderate physical activities, and are preferable to idle human players.
