It’s full of Guardians, traps, cave-ins and of course an ever-increasing risk of getting your bottom burned by lava. There are no awards to be had here, this only means defeat, time to reshuffle those tiles and try again!

Various trees were felled and cut back during the following weeks to improve safety in future bad weather. materialised meaning the only thing new in 2011 had been some Japanese Spider Crabs in Sharkbait Reef. Reveal all the tiles from the bag in a Carcassonne-esque manner, find the three keys, grab the artefact from the sanctum and boot it the hell out of there.There are eight diverse characters to pick from and each has two unique skills, so choose wisely as these skills can make a big difference in an emergency situation as the tension rises closer to the end of the game. If a horror lands on the same space as a caver, the caver immediately loses all health and becomes unconscious. Marketing also involved the newly appointed ‘Director of Fear’– Jack Osbourne, who was said to be involved throughout the attraction’s development stages and was supposedly the first to test out the new attraction; “guaranteeing that every element is as scary as possible”.

John Wardley who designed Nemesis, said passengers should sit at the front of a rollercoaster for the most "disorientating" experience. Now you must locate the 3 weak spot tiles, place your bombs on them and escape the way you came in before the time runs out and you are left lost in the darkness. Since the end of the 2015 season, Nemesis Sub-Terra remained standing but not operating with no indication as to when, or even if, it would reopen. Sub Terra is a co-operative game for 1-6 players that has players create a network of caves through laying tiles like an underground Carcassone. Riders are then instructed to watch a pre-show video, which outlines the story of how one of the Nemesis creature's eggs has been made safe for viewing by the public.And to top it off each tile is printed with UV ink, so you can sit in the dark with nothing but a black light, some atmospheric music and enjoy one of the most atmospheric horror games available. After a quick setup and some wrangling over what character to play as, you are plunged into the opening of what can only be described as the most accident-prone, horror-filled volcano of all time. Your success in Sub Terra is determined by how many cavers successfully make it to the exit before you run out of time.
