The towering Drop Zone features multiple 30-foot drops that overlook the entire arcade. The Fun House is a massive three-story playground that will keep the kids amused for hours. Everyone from kids to adults can also enjoy the LED-illuminated bumper cars.

The Dark Ride is a fully immersive 7D motion ride that will keep people coming back for more with four different movies available. The Hologate is a state-of-the-art VR experience that pits four combatants against a common enemy to see who posts the top score.

Outside, the 20-acre park features Pirate Island Golf consisting of three unique 18-hole miniature golf courses where no two holes are alike. The three custom-designed go-kart tracks are The Road Course, a quarter-mile track for the whole family, The Slick Track that will put drivers' racing skills to the test against other drivers and the new Drifter Track, with its hairpin turns, will challenge even the most experienced of drivers.

If rides are more someone's style, the tea cups and swing ride are two nostalgic rides for all ages. Swinging a full 360 degrees, the high-flying Discovery will have riders hanging upside down nearly 60 feet above the ground. The Mega Disk'O has riders seated on a saucer, spinning and traveling up and down a giant half-pipe.
