An Egyptian temple which is inhabited by alien presences is the setting for a new laser battle attractions at Italian amusement park Gardaland in Italy.
Using special weapons that shoot rays of light, visitors have to hit 184 targets scattered through 15 rooms to stop the aliens awakening inside the Temple of Abu Simbel.
Guests will face increasingly challenging settings as they make their way through the temple, including a giant cobra and a room of mechanic beetles, until they face Ramses himself.
Bruno Lancetti, Gardaland Group's marketing assistant and ride specialist, said: "The adventure aims to tie together history and the future of technology, playing up to the contrast between ancient civilisations and science fiction alien creatures. Undertaking the adventure of Ramses: The Reawakening will be a way to discover the most surprising mysteries."
Lagotronics and Alterface supplied the attraction, which uses devices with infrared sensors. "It's a true laser game for dark rides where everything is automatically controlled, from lights to scores, animatronics to surrounding audio," Lancetti concluded.
