Alterface, provider of interactive attractions, announced the grand opening of Action League™ Popcorn Revenge, the first-ever Action League™ attraction in China. Now open at Suzhou Paradise Forest World, this tournament-style attraction combines competitive gameplay with ultra-dynamic multi-axis rotation, offering a new level of interactive entertainment to Family Entertainment Centers and Location-Based Entertainment (LBE) venues.
Recognized with the 2021 IAAPA Brass Ring Award for Best New Product Concept, Action League offers a multi-round interactive experience. Guests form teams and compete in a series of challenges, while the dynamic rotation system keeps the action engaging by shuffling teams between rounds.
This Popcorn Revenge Compact Edition of Action League is specifically designed for LBE venues, making it an ideal addition to Candy World, the three-story indoor entertainment zone at Suzhou Paradise Forest World. Offering a space-efficient, cost-effective solution, the attraction maintains interactivity and throughput, accommodating 240-360 guests per hour within its 200-square-meter (2,153-square-foot) footprint.
Popcorn Revenge lands in China
The ride is brought to life by Popcorn Revenge, Alterface’s mischievous IP. Already known across Europe and Japan, this marks the first time Popcorn Revenge arrives in China.
Nestled within Candy World, Action League Popcorn Revenge takes center stage. Its semi-open layout increases visibility, drawing in visitors. The theming has been specially adapted to blend with the vibrant and colorful aesthetic of Candy World, embracing bold pink tones.
A collaborative success
The launch of Action League Popcorn Revenge is the result of a strong partnership between Alterface and Jiangsu Boren Culture Technology. This collaboration combines Alterface’s expertise in interactivity with Boren’s deep understanding of the Chinese market, ensuring an attraction tailored to local audiences.
“Our partnership with Boren has been instrumental in bringing Action League to life in China,” says Stephane Battaille, CEO of Alterface. “Through this collaborative approach, we’ve delivered a world-first attraction, and we’re excited to see its potential for replication in markets around the globe.”
Mr. Gu, CEO of Boren, adds: “This collaboration has demonstrated the true power of teamwork. We are confident this project will provide endless fun for visitors at Candy World, and we look forward to its expansion to more locations.”
