Want to be a Master of Shinjitsu? (A form of close combat martial art). Be able to throw lightning bolts, more shockwaves, send ice soaring and emit fire balls? Well you can be one and put your skills to the test in LEGO NINJAGO WORLD, featuring the LEGO NINJAGO ride with technology that never before see at any other Theme Parks in the World.

Was invited as a Media Blogger by Legoland Malaysia Resort and Gaya Travel Magazine to attend the unveiling of their new section in the Theme Park, NINJAGO WORLD. LEGO NINJAGO The Ride (indoor), is an interactive attraction with an investment of over RM40 million. It's set to open to public somewhere in November 2016.

NINJAGO Ride was first launch in Denmark, followed by California and now after LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort been in operation, it's the first ever in Asia, in Malaysia.

The 4D dark ride is inspired by the popular LEGO line of toys and TV Series. Manufactured by TrioTech, the interactive attractions gives one a chance to train like a ninja under the guidance of NINJAGO character, Master Wu, to vanquish a legion of enemy from Snake Tribes, Ghosts and Skeletons to the The Great Devourer.

How LEGO NINJAGO works interactively

Through 3D imagery, with high-tech sensors and the use of hand movements in a striking motion, up to four riders per car, traveling through dojos, one can master one skills before heading into battle via animated fireballs, lightning, shockwaves and ice. Riders collect points from their training and battle efforts and full scores are displayed when the quest is completed. While the 4D effects gives the guest the ultimate interactive experience such as heat, smoke and wind which is incorporated in the adventure.

Personally I believe these is going to be a fun one. Since LEGOLAND is all about family, a very fun family activity. You don't just get to train in a martial art interactively, you get to spend time with family as well. Interactive is the IN thing now, and for children's development it's the most effective way to enhance their skills whether from focusing, understanding, listening or imagination.
