Dark Voyage
Dark Voyage is a shooting gallery dark ride with themes of horror and time travel located in the Main Plaza Square, just behind the Dueling Arena.
Gameplay
Queue
Players ride through Dark Voyage on Time Vehicles (carts) which can seat up to 4 players each. There are 10 Time Vehicles on the ride, and a new Time Vehicle arrives at the queue every minute for players to enter.
Area 1: Western Town
After leaving the queue, players are sent to a transition chamber which opens up to a western town set. The cart takes a slow ride through the town while shooting paper ghosts, standard targets, and jack-o-lanterns. Mid-way through the town, the cart rides into a saloon with breakable bottles, haunted paintings, haunted book piles, ghostly piano player, and eyeball vines. The cart leaves, entering the town again and driving into a Spooky Gem Mine with gems, bats, and haunted minecarts. The cart enters a second transition chamber, ending the western section.
Area 2: Haunted Mansion
The second chamber opens to the front yard/graveyard of a haunted mansion in a forest. A werewolf and spiders lurk behind the trees, bats fly by and skeletons and ghosts rise from the graves. After reaching the entrance, the cart takes a right turn into a hallway, just before the lights turn off and ghosts, zombies and haunted book piles appear. The Time Vehicle enters a kitchen with shootable eyeballs and potions, then takes a left through another hallway, finally returning to the foyer, where a ghost lurks on the balcony above.
Before it's able to reach the stairs, the Time Vehicle is stopped by a haunted painting that sends ghosts to swarm the players. After the players take out the ghosts, the stairs shift to reveal a secret passageway to a trap with sawblades and spiders. A door in the trap room eventually opens to reveal a hidden laboratory. A disembodied voice narrates while players shoot bottles, haunted TVs, haunted book piles and werewolves. The Time Vehicle then enters a third transition chamber, ending the mansion section.
Area 3: Hell
After the chamber opens, the Time Vehicle rides up a cavern with flowing lava on either side of the tracks and a shootable pentagram emblem hung at the cave's exit. The Time Vehicle takes a right past the cave, riding past flying demons and a demon wearing a cow skull sitting on a Skelethrone. The Time Vehicle goes down, rapidly speeding up through a winding track and looping around a tall rock with a shootable flesh-hook-monster perched on it. The Time Vehicle speeds through the rest of the track while more demons fly above until it reaches the final transition chamber, ending the ride and sending players back to the queue.
