Escape the Goblin King is a highly interactive, choose your own adventure, immersive theater experience. You’ve come to explore the newly-opened Goblin King Caverns. Once your tour begins, three tour guides lead your group into an elevator that lowers you all into the cave system. Upon entering the caves, you find yourself trapped by Roark, the Goblin King, inside an underground world of magic and monsters. Each of you possesses powerful magic within yourselves and Roark needs this power to save his kingdom from destruction. He gives you the choice to join him voluntarily or attempt to find the exit. However, while there are many entrances, there is only one exit. If you don’t find the correct door before time runs out, you’ll be stuck in Roark’s kingdom forever. This location-based experience takes place in the depths of a cave system. Cramped, winding tunnels open into cavernous rooms. This particular setting allows for a new type of modular design. The attraction is an architectural octopus in that it can be twisted and molded to fit an existing structure, capitalizing on the concept of adaptive reuse. A sustainability practice helping to keep old buildings standing while reducing construction and energy costs. Eight rooms connected by six tunnels make up the entirety of the needed spaces. Interact with characters, changing the story with every decision you make. Characters like Edred, a goblin adamant about helping the humans, and Maeve, a human who escaped but decided to come back for one particular reason. Learn how to wield your human magic by way of motion capture technology and interactive show elements. Board a boat and navigate a treacherous underground river on a thrilling dark ride. And remember to choose your allies carefully. You never know who is friend or foe within the goblin kingdom.
