In the VR Coaster, you have the chance to design your very own VR roller coaster ride. You and your finger design the ride; it’s entirely up to you how long and how thrilling the ride will be! The complete ride can be experienced along with the rest of your family, as total capacity is for 4 people.
Other activities
You can also test your abilities within a range of fields such as memory and motor skills. With regard to the latter, the Segway course is particularly popular.
You can learn a great deal about the world of technology at Universe. Science becomes a game through fun experiments, in addition to which you have the chance to build things yourself.
Although the majority of the park’s activities are action-packed, there are also quieter sections, thus making Universe an ideal destination for a day trip for adults and children alike.
