Owned and operated by the OCT Group, Fabland Valley resort includes six themed areas. The Walktrough attraction is located at the “Alien Port”, and part of the land of the Fantasy Valley Resort. Triotech designed a thrilling walkthrough experience covering more than 1,000 sq meters called ‘Hive Break’. This 12-minute, highly immersive and interactive attraction features two parallel pathways with intertwining narratives. Therefore, guests choose to battle as pirates or bounty hunters in an epic sci-fi battle over ancient alien technology!
Each parallel path consists of three unique zones: a Motion Simulator, a Training Facility (Interactive Projection Mapping), and an Interactive Theatre. This double walkthrough attraction offers high throughput and encourages repeat visits as guests experience a different narrative depending on the path they choose in the queue line. Triotech designed, developed and manufactured each component of this multisensory attraction, including using its proprietary Illusio interactive projection mapping. The interactive custom media content has been entirely created by Triotech’s own studio in Montreal on the UNREAL game engine.
Evolving Collaboration
Ernest Yale, president and CEO of Triotech, said: “OCT and Triotech have a long collaborative history with a dozen projects completed over recent years. OCT Group understand their guests very well and recognise the importance of creative attractions that feature advanced technology. This is what Triotech delivers combining the expertise of our teams in Montreal, France, and Beijing.” Mr. Wang from the Equipment Management Department at OCT added: “During the execution of this project, Triotech’s teams worked closely with us to overcome the adverse impact of the pandemic on the dispatch of workers, the arrival of goods, on-site installation and commissioning, and ensured that the attraction opened on time.”
