New interactive dark ride concept by Alterface
POSTED 16 Sep 2013 . BY Kate Corney
Alterface has developed a new concept of compact interactive dark ride - GameRide.

The turnkey dark ride solution takes up just 650sq m (7,000sq ft) of space with four screens in 3D and two theming zones, which mix interactivity and video projec­tion mapping on the scenery.

At EAS 2013, a scale model of GameRide will be shown plus real size interactive theming from the ride, so that visitors can test the game with the guns and decor.

The ride's theming and content is designed to be easily adapted to provide new experiences using the same area and technology.

The current content, called African Magic, is produced with a Real Time engine and isn’t pre­determined. The story leads the players via four back-projected media screens, taking them on a safari through the jungle, to a tribal village and the savan­nah, before ending with a final fight against ivory looters in an elephant cemetery.

Moving between two interac­tive theming zones, players are immersed in the experience as props react to the shooting and come to life and through the use of light and sound.
