It is quite good not quite as good as oblivion in my opinion, however it is quite slow throughout its layout and isn't that intense. It's not as good as the flying coasters in the USA but it is definitely worth riding if you visit Alton Towers

An extremely fun ride. Lots of airtime and lateral forces. Theming is a huge positive. It does not need a large layout to be fun. Would recommend to both experienced enthusiasts and those just starting out.

My new favourite rollercoaster!!! The g-forces were extremely intense, inversions were very fun and there was even some airtime. Recommend to anyone visiting Alton Towers.

It has some brilliant theming in the queue and an amazing soundtrack that doesn't get annoying, unlike a certain other roller coaster (Smiler). The ride does a great job of building your anxiety up, as you approach the drop. Slowly pulling you up the hill, then slowly taking round till you come face to face with the world's first vertical drop, at a staggering 90 degrees. Oh sorry, 87.5 degrees, oh well, it's not like you're going to notice the small difference when you're hurtling towards the ground reaching and going into a dark tunnel reaching a speed of 68 mph and a g-force of 4.5 times Earth's usual gravity. And what better way to continue after this amazing drop then with... A bank turn into the brake run? Yeah, the ride is a bit short, but Alton Towers were limited what they could do considering the height restrictions and space they had to work with. There are definitely better rides out there, even at Alton Towers but that doesn't mean you should give Oblivion a miss.

It is a good family spinning coaster. Good ride for children who aren't tall enough for the rides like Oblivion and Nemesis but have grown out of Family coasters like Octonuats. The only problem is 25% of the ride are break runs to increase capacity but even then that's not the best, I went on a school day and there was still at least a 10 minute wait when all other coasters were walk-ons
This ride is OK. The launch is good, I have heard you get airtime on entry to the brakes but I didn't notice any. Its cons are hard to ignore first th...
This ride is OK. The launch is good, I have heard you get airtime on entry to the brakes but I didn't notice any. Its cons are hard to ignore first there's the fact that the harness is one of the worst Intamin has made and that's saying something, second there's the fact that there is little theming around the ride especially compared to other coasters at the park such as Nemesis, Smiler and Wicker man which are extremely well themed and lastly the thing only lasts 25 seconds making it one of the shortest rides by duration in the world. In my opinion Alton Towers should replace it with either an Intamin Blitz coaster similar to Taron at Phantasialand or a thrilling flat ride which Alton Towers seems to be lacking
