The Battle For Kings Dominion
BY HOLOVIS Kings Dominion theme park in Virginia has launched the Battle for Kings Dominion, an Extended Experience app developed by Holovis. Building on the success of the award winning Battle for Cedar Point, the Cedar Fair and Holovis teams have created a next generation app with more ways to play, intensified competition and increased personalisation. The Battle For Kings Dominion gamifies activities that guests are already doing, giving them points for riding coasters, the vertical miles travelled and the number of inversions. Traditionally passive experiences such as waiting in a queue line, seeking refreshments and even physical merchandise are transformed with Augmented Reality, from interactive mini games to hidden elements to discover, which can then be shared on social media.
Amy Steele, VP of Development at Holovis explains: “Extended Experiences
are the future of entertainment, where every element is connected together allowing guests to discover hidden narratives and gamify what are traditionally passive moments. One thing we noticed is that people are still interacting with the app when they get home so we’ve built more features in so the game play can continue as they prepare for their next visit. From waiting in a queue line to having refreshments and even within purchased merchandise, everything now becomes a chance to connect with other members of the park or share the moments with your wider community on social media.”
