Desperados (ride)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Developed by Alterface, Desperados is a collective amusement ride. It presents itsefl as an interactive theater with a western theme.
[edit] Principle
10 to 60 riders step on their individual horses and pick up their six-shooters. All riders play together on the same large video screen but everyone receives an individual score and every horse moves differently according to how good its rider plays. Both the best and worst riders are acknowledged by the system via Doc, the 3D character animating the show.
[edit] Story
Doc is a proud cow-boy and considers himself a real gunslinger. There are two things he really hates: Desperados and trainees... Tough luck for him: he just "inherited" of a bunch of new recruits... Tough luck for the riders too! Because they are part of the so-called bunch of green horns... Just make sure you perform well because the city just relies on you to bring peace back, and Doc won't let you go with it so easily!
