The first drop is the best of the ride, its amazing and very long. The first half of the coaster focusses more on drops while the second half more on intense curves. The mid course break slows you down a bit too abruptly and is a bit of a buzz kill. Then follow some curves and an intense helix which gave me a short grey out. The layout is not the ride's strongest feature, its is very smooth though. Thrill: 4/5

The coaster might have some rough transitions and 2 dead spots (strong mid course break, straight track near the end) but its one hell lot of fun to ride. It has a weird, unique layout and some cool intense inversions, like the batwing. The ride is also pretty long and smooth for an old Arrow. The seating was ok, not too uncomfortable. Thrill: 3.75/5

The ride's layout was pretty standard but fun as all B&M coasters. It has some nice inversions and a good pace. The theming was a bit of a joke, you could call the coaster "Car park - The ride"

It looks cool winding around that lake. The ride throws you into the curves and is fast paced but the uncomfortable seating and the lift hill to the station ruined the experience a bit. Thrill: 1.5/5

The track is nicely bound to the terrain but the layout is not the best. It crawls over some hills, has some abrupt transitions and became a bit uncomfortable. The loop is pretty good and intense, the rest of the ride is decent but not bad. Thrill: 3/5

Even though the ride was a bit rough and seemed like its gonna break down at any moment it was pretty fun. The layout nicely uses the terrain and has a decent length, it also gives a bit the nostalgia of an old school coaster

The ride was pretty smooth for its age I thought, the first drop was nice, also the double up, not very forceful, but the overall layout was a bit bland and had some dead spots (long slow curves)

Even though many wouldn't agree with me, I think this ride was ahead of its time and an engineering masterpiece. The ride anticipates as you climb up ...

Even though many wouldn't agree with me, I think this ride was ahead of its time and an engineering masterpiece. The ride anticipates as you climb up the lift hill backwards not knowing when it goes down, in the background you hear Enter Sandman - Metallica. Then suddenly you arrive on top and the seats rotate so you face the ground as you drop down. The vertical controlled rotation of the seats was amazing, also on one spot flames come out. It has nice intense inversions, not rattly or uncomfortable. One of the most amazing coaster experiences I ever had! Thrill: 4.75/5

The waiting for this ride at a "quiet" day at disney was atrocious, like the queue didn't move at all. The pre-show and storytelling of the ride is well done. The ride it self is an old Vekoma launch. It builds up some nice anticipation before the launch. After the launch the is a "sea serpent corkscrew" and after that it get tamer with some curves, a final corkscrew, some curves and then the end. The ride has no head banging and is not too rough. Thrill: 3.25/5

Now I was surprised of the amazing theming of this ride, was even better than Poseidon. It has a nice dark ride section with story telling. The ride is like Poseidon pretty long has an intense straight drop and an indoor coaster part. The whole set up of the ride is appealing, like the building, the first drop etc. Thrill: 2.5/5

The ride is in a very deeply themed swiss area with love to detail. If you have a car alone you have a comfy seat in which you almost lie inside. The ride is very smooth itself, the fast paced twists and turns are fun but thats already it. The ride in my opinion is waay to short, just when you think it starts getting awesome it just ends.

This coaster is also a cult attraction of Europapark and very nice to look at. The queue line is heavily themed so doesn't even get boring, but due to the high capacity and fast dispatch the queue goes pretty fast. The ride itself is only half a coaster, its very nicely themed, it has The Gladiator soundtrack running but its Greece themed haha, it has two lift hills: the first one has a small coaster part with some curves which are a bit rattly and medium thrill, the second one has just a straight drop with some more intensity. I always enjoy the ride, you don't get that wet, it has long duration and has some good thrill in comparison to other water rides water ride. Thrill: 2.25/5

Very nicely themed coaster with a cool layout. The first drop is like dropping into a dark pit of wood, the ride is very fast paced, fast transitions, not too rough and a good intensity. One of the better rides at Europapark. Thrill: 3.75/5

As all B&M Hypers very enjoyable, comfortable seating, no rattle (only a bit on the first curve up after the first drop), amazing first drop, typical out and back layout, airtime was a bit missing though, very fast and intense curves at the end. Theming was only in the station and queue line. There is also never long waiting, since the trains hold a large capacity. Thrill: 4/5

This is a very interesting bobsled coaster with some nice theming. It has an elevator lift up, a nice first drop, nice layout and lots of smaller fun drops. Its also a very smooth ride. Only con is its capacity and has therefore longer waits than Silverstar sometimes; Thrill: 2/5

Back when it was space themed I loved the ride, especially its soundtrack you hear during the spiral lift in the pitch black up. The theming was mediocre. Also note that its one of the few coasters worldwide with a spiral lift. The ride doesn't really have an intense first drop but is very fast paced during the course, fun and rushes forcefully through those curves. The only con I got was that the train's seats were a bit uncomfortable and got your legs cramped in. Thrill: 2.25/5

This ride is cult at Europapark, its Mack's first spinning coaster and is pretty unique. It has a nice space theming, even though it got old after some time. It has a very long spiral lift with a space station in the middle. While on the lift there are always some funny people playing with laser pointers or scream funny things. It takes like 5min up and is a bit of a dead spot. On the top the spinning get activated and you circle a bit around the towers and before the drop the spinning stops and you go down. The part after the drop is much more intense and faster paced. It has some very intense curves, a very intense final break but sadly no airtime during the ride. It also has some rattle in the second half. All in all its a unique fun medium intensity family coaster with some duration and lots of variation, Thrill: 2.5/5

I thought this ride was pretty pointless and didn't fit in, there are enough family coasters in the park. It was also very short and lacked any theming.

The queue line is nicely themed also the pre-show before the launch is cool. The launch is not very forceful, also the large curve after the launch lacks any forces or airtime, the loop gives some good hangtime though. The zero g rolls are mediocre but the last roll was the best element of the ride. Because of the smoothness and the very comfortable seats and lap bars the ride was fun. Dispatch is really fast and only lasts like 30 seconds. I advice to take the single rider line, its very quick, Only con of it: you can't choose your seat, the operators tell you where to sit; Thrill: 3.25/5

Since there is already Poseidon, why did they install a second water coaster? Its still fun to ride though. The backwards part is ok. Theming is nice ...

Since there is already Poseidon, why did they install a second water coaster? Its still fun to ride though. The backwards part is ok. Theming is nice but only in the station area Thrill: 2/5

This ride is not about intensity and is more of a dark ride. I'd say its one the best family coasters out there. Its incredebly well themed, a good story telling, very modern (I was really surprised), runs very smooth, very comfortable seating and a high capacity (with moving loasing platform)

This might be right now the best themed coaster in the world! The theme Klugheim is amazing and immersive. The coaster has 2 launches, very fast paced curves, very smooth, some intensity, nicely interwoven with the scenery and very fun to ride. There is really nothing bad to say about this ride, (a barrel roll might have been a cool addition though, but thats bickering on a high level) Thrill: 3.5/5

So this coaster is unique and with Winjas Force a one of a kind and were ahead of its time. If you never rode them, you're in for a surprise. They are dueling spinning coasters with a tilting elevator lift, a seesaw, a drop track and a hinging track. Elements never seen before on a coaster! The rides are also very nicely themed (they are indoor), very fun to ride, smooth, mediocre intensity and they have an own soundtrack (on the first drop and on the special elements an anticipating soundtrack plays before letting you drop). Thrill: 2.75/5. Fun: 4/5 Layout: 4.5/5

Very beautifully themed coaster. The coaster is pretty long and has a nice varying layout, not much rattling. Thrill: 2.5/5 Cons: the seats are uncomfortable and hard and the small indoor section in that mountain looks like in a warehouse

The best themed B&M invert out there. Very immersive theme! The ride is pretty fast paced and rushed very fast through these trenches. Its very smooth, has some intensity and is very fun to ride and even nice to look at Thrill: 3.5/5

My fav. ride at Universal Studios. In my opinion the best indoor-themed-horror coaster. It has amazing scenery in the queue line, during the ride its fantastic. It has cool animatronics, effects (even fire), story telling and some cool (or scary) surprises for you if you ride it for the first time. It has a launch section and a backwards part. This coaster is a must-do! Thrill: 2.75/5. (concerning the coaster part, not the scary aspect)
