The House of Hype—a digitalized amusement park—is offering an immersive experience for visitors in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Guests can navigate the park like a video game, unlocking prizes and scavenger hunts in augmented reality using their smartphones. “We like to call it 'wonderverse.' We are trying to get the most out of the creative people in the industry,” says Abdulrahman Abdulwahid, Supervisor at House of Hype. “We have dancers here. We have, we like to call it icons. Icons, which is dancers. We have public speakers. We have just people trained to interact with our visitors to make them feel happy, ask them random questions, give them challenges. We have also an app called Parks. You can download it. You can do missions, get free stuff, and then you can explore the place much faster with it.” Sixteen distinct worlds take visitors through dazzling neon cities, glowing gardens, melting neighborhoods and robotic light shows. There are four primary areas - Immersive worlds, the Gaming zone, Creator zone, and Snacks and Shopping. “So, basically, we have four primary zones. Every zone have its own inspirations. As we said here, this is District X. District X is inspired by social media, memes, fashion and music. So basically, as you can see in this place, we have plenty of AI experience. Here at You Design, you can design your own tunes with your vocals. You can see what your voice looks like. It's weird. And we like here to bring new stuff. So, people get kind of confused here,” says Abdulwahid. There are around 50 exclusive gaming stations featuring immersive games and arcade experiences. In the creator zone, victors can design their own digital shoes using voice technology. If it's interactive gameplay you're after, head to the Hyper K area. The House of Hype in Saudi Arabia opened in January and is a permanent venue and costs 89 Saudi Riyals to enter (approximately $24). This article was provided by The Associated Press.
