Theming Comfort Layout Intensity
While seeing this ride as a dark ride, my review would be better than reviewing it as a coaster because the theming is really nice (especially the changes between indoor- and outdoor sections) and the ride feels quite dynamic with the rotations and different speeds. But for a coaster, it is rather slow and nothing really spectacular. I should see it as a compromiss between those two ride types. The capacity itself is not bad and the dispatch time is pretty fast, but lines are still typically quite long, probably due to the broad target group of riders.

Theming Fun Smoothness Capacity
Overall I like this ride: it's a pretty good coaster for families and children and the ride through the cave with the interaction with the flume ride is a nice feature. But with the VR Upgrade, the lines are often longer than before. The ride with VR is okay, but nothing too spectacular.

Theming Pace Intensity Capacity
My favourite ride at Europa Park: it's the most intense coaster at this park (especially in the evening, the night rides here are nuts!) keeping it's speed very well throughout the whole layout and the area and queue is very nicely themed. Also the ride itself with its logo integrated into the lifthill looks fantastic. The station fly-through is a cool feature - but it's VERY loud! The only con is the capacity, lines are typically quite long compared to other coasters at Europa Park, but it's definiteley worth a longer wait!

Airtimes Intensity Smoothness
Very solid GCI. Good airtime in the back with lots of lats in the front. Much smoother then I was expecting and an overall solid layout.

Launch Dead spots Layout Reliability
It’s alright, it does its place in this dreary park which can’t seem to keep their rides open throughout the day. Decent launch, couple forceful banked turns but a couple of dead spots and the layout as a whole isn’t great. Only got 1 ride on it as well.

Not really a rollercoaster But it is not bad

Inversions Fun Hangtime Rattle
Quite undderated tbh! Obviously not great but you cannot get any better in this park atm due to rides being down for maintenance all the time as finances are struggling, quite enjoyable as there is 0 head banging and the rattle dosent bother me. I find the trains quite unique and free despite them looking like a glorified saw trap. This creates decent hang time on the inversions and an overall fun ride if you can laugh off the rattle and how strange it is. It is almost so bad it is good!

First Drop Inversions Hangtime Harness Disappointing! Discomfort
The restraint ruins this ride due to their being much more comfortable restraints from this ride type before. There is no need to have a OTS and lap bar which dosent make the ride very enjoyable. Only got to ride once but there was some good hang time and the first drop is very whippy but overall the restraints are completely unnecessary. Also the way you hold onto the restraints is ridiculous ?

Airtimes Comfort Fun
This Gerstlauer family coaster really blew me away. What a solid family ride, it even has floater airtime!

Airtimes Inversions Ejectors Discomfort
It has a amazing first drop and the 270° double inverting stall is such a good inversion, the entire element your out of your seat. It has a ton of violent ejector moments which do hurt after a while thanks to the restrains. The last heartline roll is amazing and your also out of your seat for the intire element. What a ride!
