13 - Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge

E-Ticket

Must be 40 in.

Take on Team Bowser in this interactive race based off the popular video games.

QUEUE:

In the back of the Mushroom Kingdom is where Bowser's Castle is located. Guests walk up some stairs and then head towards the intimidating structure. From here, they can get a good view of the whole land before they go inside.

Once within the room, guests will pass through many rooms. This includes a foyer, Bowser's throne room, a trophy room where all the Mario Kart trophies are stored, Bowser, Jr.'s workshop, and then, a room for Team Mario. In the last of these rooms, guests will see racing equipment for the members of Team Mario: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Daisy, and Toad. In the meantime, two guests in a vehicle will take the last two spots on the team. Meanwhile, Team Bowser consists of Bowser and his Koopalings.

PRE-SHOW:

Soon, guests will enter into a room where Lakitu gives them instructions. Aside from a safety spiel, he also teaches them how to play. After this video, guests will exit the room and board one of many carts. There, they pull their lap bars down and put on special Augmented Reality visors.

RIDE EXPERIENCE:

Guests pull up to the starting line, where all of the members of Team Mario and Team Bowser are. When Lakitu counts down, the racers go. They go through recreations of the following races from Mario Kart 8:

• Mario Circuit
• 3DS Piranha Plant Slide
• Dolphin Shoals
• Twisted Mansion
• Cloudtop Cruise
• Wii Grumble Volcano
• Bowser's Castle
• N64 Rainbow Road

As they ride, guests can gain coins by attacking screens, Team Bowser members, and turning when instructed to. If they get 100 coins and above, then Team Mario wins. If they get below 100 coins, Team Bowser wins. A different ending will play either way, showing the winning team.

POST-RIDE:

When getting off their vehicle, guests proceed through a passage and end up in the Mario Motors gift shop. Here is where they can find all things Mario Kart.

14 - Yoshi's Adventure

B-Ticket

Any Height

In this interactive family ride, guests travel through the Mushroom Kingdom in search of three glowing Yoshi eggs.

QUEUE:

Guests find the attraction advertised at the bottom of Mount Beanpole. Here, guests enter and pass through some scenes reminiscent of Yoshi's Island. They also pass by a Toad House, where Toadette explains that Captain Toad has gone looking for glowing Yoshi eggs and he needs your help to find them. They will soon ascend to the top of the mountain, where they board their Yoshi.

RIDE EXPERIENCE:

These Yoshis are omnimover-type vehicles that guests can turn to face certain scenes. They can also collect eggs by pushing the buttons when they approach them.

To start things off, Yoshi crosses a bridge and moves through the grasslands. Here, they move by some koopa troopas and pass next to a thwomp before going into a cave. There, they find the first Yoshi egg, a red one. Guests collect it and narrowly escape a piranha plant.

Then, guests go into a desert area. After dodging a conkdor, they proceed past some pokeys. They then cross through a cave, where a yellow Yoshi egg is seen. They take it from a bouncing fireball.

Finally, guests cross another bridge into a mountain area. There, they see penguins sliding on icy slopes above. They venture through some ice caves and see some unsteady-looking icicles. Using screen effects, some of them begin to fall, but the Yoshis escape just in time. As they return to Mount Beanpole, they run into Captain Toad, who gives them the last Yoshi egg, a red one.

POST-RIDE:

After the ride, guests get off their Yoshis and go down some stairs. There, they exits into the 1-up factory gift shop.
