Advantages: Lots of Unique & Fun Rides. Great Fun For All The Family
Disadvantages: A bit expensive, Small queues.
Welcome to Disney's Theme park of the future. The highly interactive & entertaining DisneyQuest.
The indoor park has five floors all with various attractions. All the video games, rides & attractions in the park are free & included in the entrance fee.
First I'll start with the arcade games. There are hundreds of them. They all cost nothing & you can always find one unoccupied.
There are five main draw attractions:
These are PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN - BATTLE FOR THE BUCCANEER GOLD, This is an attraction for up to 6 people. You step inside a simulator surrounded on all sides by screens. You then shoots cannons at boats that appear on the screen destroying them & protecting your own vessel. This one is lots of fun & great for families.
VIRTUAL JUNGLE CRUISE takes place on a raft which inflates to make you feel & give you the sensation of actually riding a raft. You are in front of a screen which shows a Jungle Cruise. You paddle your way along the river. This is quite fun & you even get sprayed with the odd bit of water. It can take 4 people but they will let one ride. I tried it alone. It was very comical.
CYBERSPACE MOUNTAIN is a virtual rollercoaster. This is great for the Thrill Seekers. You design your own rollercoaster. Then once completed you step onto a simulator to ride it. Good Eh? Believe it. I really enjoyed this although I get travel sick so couldn't manage more than one ride. You can also buy the footage of you riding on DVD. Good Souvenir.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR'S ASTROBLASTERS is High tec dodgems. Two people ride each dodgem. One is the driver. The other is the Gunner. Gunner i hear you say. There are cannon balls scattered around the floor. Driving over one catches it in your dodgem. You can the load it into the cannon & fire it at the other dodgems. If you hit the target on one, they even spin round. As will you. Great fun.
ANIMATION ACADEMY is where you get a class in learning how to draw Disney characters. Each class teaches a different Disney character. I didn't do this but it did look fun.
If you are in Disney World & get a 14 day ticket, you can go in here for free as often as you like. Well worth a look & great fun. Although $40 entrance fee if not is quite expensive. Especially if you've been in already.
Summary: A really good & unusual attraction. Well worth a look
