The Immersive Adventurer will be a major ride at Cartoon Network World Kuwait, which is set to undergo a major redevelopment next year |
|
Simworx, a creator of dynamic media-based attractions, has announced that it will install a Ben 10-themed Immersive Adventurer ride at FutureKid's Cartoon Network World in Kuwait.
Expected to open in 2019, the ride will be a key attraction for the park, and will form part of a park-wide redevelopment that will see all of its current rides and attractions being replaced.
A turn-key solution that offers a unique rider experience, the Immersive Adventurer is designed to fully-immerse riders by combining 4D effects with HD visuals and a surround sound system. A 16-seat vehicle situated on a 3DOF motion base provides dynamic motion, while 12 video screens, surrounding the riders on all sides, will immerse riders in the world of Ben 10.
Terry Monkton, CEO of Simworx, said: "We're absolutely delighted to be working with FutureKid on this amazing project in Kuwait, bringing the first Immersive Adventurer to the Middle East region. We're also delighted to working with Cartoon Network in bringing the Ben 10 brand to life - it's an amazing ride."
