SHOW PREVIEW
VEQTOR Veqtor will be showcasing two new
attraction experiences at EAS – Lazer Maze and SniggleHunt. Lazer Maze transforms a darkened
room into a challenge, as players have to negotiate their way through a space criss-crossed with a seemingly impen- etrable mesh of lasers. Music, sound effects and pulsating lights add to the excitement. Players have a limited time to get
through the maze. The quicker they get through without breaking beams, the higher their score. Guest capacity of the walk-through Lazer Maze is 100 people per hour. The maze is fully mobile via the Lazer Pillar, so can be rolled into an empty room when required and, when not in use, doesn’t tie up the fl oor space. SniggleHunt is a treasure hunt game, which can be played in a vari- ety of areas, from a large soft play structure, to several acres across a park. Visitors to the venue are given a magic Sniglet, which communicates with Sniggles. Every time they fi nd a Sniggle, they get points, which are stored in their Sniglet. At the end of their visit, they take their Sniglet to the SniggleHunt kiosk and redeem their points. The aim is to build up the best score they can over several visits. Lazer Maze is due to be installed
this autumn in a well-known UK soft play and SniggleHunt will be going into sites in the US and Europe.
A recreation of the Tardis is among the attractions at The Doctor Who Experience SARNER
The best way to showcase a project is for people to visit it. And that’s precisely what guests to EAS will be able to do with Sarner’s Doctor Who Experience, as the attraction is based at Olympia Two. Featured in AM Q2 11, the interactive, 25-minute experience is an immersive, timed, dark walk show that uses fi lm-mak- ing techniques and 3D to plunge visitors into the world of the cult sci-fi tv series. Sarner will also be profi ling its latest
projects, which include the recreation of a cramped gun turret with its crew at
action stations. The project is a permanent addition to the historic ship HMS Belfast, a branch of the Imperial War Museum. Sarner uses lights, imagery, sound, smoke effects, movement and smells to recreate the atmosphere and conditions of what it would have been like to fi ght at sea in 1943. The company is also creating an immer-
sive exhibition aboard Norway’s most famous ship, the FRAM, which recreates the freezing conditions and extreme emo- tions that the famous Arctic and Antarctic explorers Adamson and Nanson had to endure in the early 1900’s.
NORTHERN LEISURE GROUP / KIDDY RIDES
Now in its 25th year of business, Northern Leisure Group / Kiddy Rides will be exhibiting its latest coin-operated children’s ride, Joey JCB. Licensed from JCB, the digger ride is made from high quality
gel coat. It has an entrance on both sides to allow easy access and ease positioning of the ride on site. An 17” LCD touch screen offers the choice of two videos,
which are selected at the beginning of the ride. Interactive push buttons are simulated onto the screen featuring six of Joey’s coolest phrases. Two joysticks with sound effects help replicate the sensation of digging in an actual JCB. Video clips refl ect either the driver’s point of view or show footage of the ‘Dancing Diggers’ routine. The company will also be showing its Scalextric
