Aqua Nova is a large attraction simulator product from Sega, and designed through their AM5 division, with Digital Universe providing additional support.
The ride is an interactive 3D CGI-animated ridefilm, featuring moving and tilting seats. Guests wear 3D glasses as the ride simulates a submarine which is attacked by a large sea squid that intends to destroy a city. The film has over sixteen different endings depending if the monster is "shot" enough using the on-seat controls.
Completed attractions
At least nine installments were produced, which no longer operate or exist. One of these installments was relocated to the Player's Arena game center in Shanghai for its opening in 2007, but it's unknown which installment it was.
