Kim Possible at World Showcase

Post by Esmeralda » Jan Tue 20, 2009 8:56 pm

Just back from the world, we experienced the fantastic new Kim Possible attraction. I was a little skeptical at first, but when I saw you get to make special things happen at World Showcase, I was sold.

You don't need to know anything about the show (I've never seen it). It reminded me of Carmen Sandiego (yay!). Our spy game was at Germany and it was a great prezel caper. The cell phone Kimmunicator helped us do all sorts of wild things around the country. It was a blast!!

Has anyone else tried this yet??
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

I haven't tried it yet, and actually wasn't going to until I read a review on All Ears. I thought it was just an activity for kids, but after reading about it, I can't wait to try it when I'm there in March! The guy who did the review did it with his wife - no kids, but it still looked like and sounded like they had a blast.

I am going to the World soon, and I REALLY hope that I get to try it at least once (I know you can do it from different countries in Epcot, though I am not sure if it is all of them or just some of them). I am going to be with a group of friends who I am pretty sure will not be interested, so I will have to see if I can get away from them for a while. :)

I saw this in use at EPCOT. Could have tried it early, decided not to. What I noticed...
(1) I kinda got sick of the kim possible pagers going off... the same sound everywhere.... (I'll listen to its a small world for 12 days straight instead of listening to that for another hour.)

(2) Kinda got sick of family strife connected to it, siblings arguing, parents going off...

(3) felt that some of the locations that people were sent to were badly chosen. Caused a bottleneck more than once as people had to stop and watch the result of their actions. so you have a group that needs to stop right there, with another group that needs to move. Not the best chemistry...

(4) Felt mildly sad that kids needed a boost to get interested in the countries.

(5) Was happy that they are advancing the interactivity of the park, as you know it will be built on and used in something that will eventually blow our minds.

(6) That the thought it there to increase kids interest in EPCOT, making it easier for parents to enjoy it.

How long does it take to do this and is there a certain spot to go to get started?
