Here are some pics from Encounter Zone at the Wafi Mall in Dubai. As usual I will let the photos do most of the talking here. If you have any questions let me know.

They have a Crystal Maze, based on the UK TV show and a kiddie fl yer called Komet, sadly it was closed.

When it opened this was the longest indoor slide in the world, so they claimed.

Not very good pic, but the track dips through the rock facade here.

Here you can see the track on the roof

The Komet was closed, the ride op said they were fazing it out because it was too old.

Encounter Zone consists of Lunar land and Galaxy Land, separated by a food court, No McDonald's here though.

It was made by a company here called select contracts. here are some details from them

 

"We designed and built the Komet in 1997 when Encounter

Zone was built specifically for that site, it is a gravity fed sky

coaster so only has the 7ft uplift at the start and the rest is managed

by gravity. Quite an engineering feat."
