Watch them come to life in 3D motion! Dancing Puppets Make your own puppet and watch it come alive on screen as it follows your exact movement. Can you teach your puppet how to dance? You sure can! Please Do Not Feed The Bugs Enter a virtual ecosystem with strange beetles, spiders, centipedes and other creepy critters! Beware, these insect-like creatures possess their own personalities and react differently to humans. Put your foot in their path and watch what happens. Mutant Me Create a weird collage of yourself on the wall. By taking multiple pictures of yourself in different positions, you can morph part of your body with previous photos. See yourself mutating more on the big screen. Dry Feet Who can stay dry by staying within the lines of shrinking and moving islands? Jumping over to the other islands is allowed and so is friendly pushing. Video Mapping A new smart video solution that can turn a whole building into a huge screen. Design your own animation and effects, projecting them on our scaled building model. 3D Art Illusion 3D street art is two-dimensional artwork drawn on the street that gives you a three-dimensional optical illusion.
