People will have an enjoyable day and love the experience for the deep sea navigators will climb aboard four-person submarine-inspired ride vehicles and embark on the four-minute, 4-D interactive adventure into the Iron Reef.
Voyage to the Iron Reef’s™ 4-D experience integrates high definition 3-D animation with creative place making props and scenery. People will have a direct impact on the outcome of the experience, and ensures that no two voyages are ever the same.
Iron Reef is the newest interactive 4-D ride on the West Coast and it is also the only interactive 4D ride in the dense So Cal theme park marketplace featuring an entirely original story and characters. Riding the equivalent of two football fields all while battling 4-D elements and mechanical minions
To create sound effects for each specific character, the creative team began with an image of that character (or scene, or gun blast) and created a sound that matched the unique look. Definitely, one of the best parks boasts a lineup of breathtaking rides and entertainment so in few words there are good selections of rides which satisfy most ages and thrill level as well as games.
