MagiQuest Live Game Opens at Tokyo Dome to Large Crowds
TOKYO, Apr. 25 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
MagiQuest, a live-action interactive game that immerses players into a
world of fantasy powered by sophisticated technology today announced the
opening of its newest location in Tokyo Dome City, Japan.
Expecting more than 400,000 visitors annually, MagiQuest Tokyo Dome
attracts families of all ages to play together. "Tokyo Dome has never had an
attraction like this before," said Mr. Kaneko, Project Chief. "We are excited
to have MagiQuest and anticipate high repeat visitation and much success
here."
Unlike anything you have ever done before, MagiQuest is like stepping
into a real life video game. Players, known as a Magi, buy and adorn a magic
wand that triggers over 150 special effects and remembers everything you do
forever. Using the wand like a wireless controller, Magi use clues and hints
to progress through the game, earn points and power, and encounter unique
worlds. When guests return, they pick up where they left off, so the game
never ends.
The entire experience is spoken in Japanese and English, creating a
connection with the guests and making the Magic spread across the world. This
is the first international site offering dueling, a part of the game where
players battle one another using powers they earned in the game, as well as
an on site scoreboard to see where they rank compared to others.
"MagiQuest in Japan has been an overwhelming, instant success just as we
envisioned," said Denise Weston, co-founder of Creative Kingdoms. "The guests
are waiting in lines to own a piece of the magic by buying their magic wands
and are consumed in the game for hours. Kids, parents, and even grandparents
are literally getting IN the game."
MagiQuest debuted internationally to enthusiastic crowds last year at
Lagunasia Theme Park in the Laguna Gamagori Resort in central Japan.
