The Malaysian Fantasy Theme Park Review


It has been a month since the grand opening of the Malaysia Fantasy Theme Park, graced by the honourable Village Chief Malek. After the initial snaking queues to the world-class multi-billion meso theme park during the first week, the hype has more or less died down now.

While many Maplers have commented that the decor of the new extension was excitingly refreshing, other reviews have been less positive. The park seemed to be plagued by a series of calamities, with the most recent being the short circuit of the Booper Aeroplane Ride, resulting in the crashing of two Booper Planes.

Five Maplers riding in the affected Booper Planes were sent on a free trip to the nearest town as a result and were later on sent to Kerning’s Niora Hospital to check for internal trauma. The casualties have since been discharged and declined an interview with Newsbytes.

Other Maplers have been giving immediate feedback about the rides, usually in the form of puddles of puke just outside the ride disembarking area. Additional feedback includes poor customer service by the service staff and insufficient safety measures undertaken in the theme park.

Fantasy Theme Park Sdn Bhd have since tried to remedy the kinks and hiccups and even engaged veteran fengshui master Yai Bua to give some pointers on how to beef up the positive energies flowing through the world-class attraction.

"You see ah. According to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, the mobs of your park are lacking 'earth’ and 'fire’. Currently you've got the metallic Booper Scarlion planes for 'metal', the Jester Scarlions running on those dented barrels as your 'wood', the Vikerola for 'water', but you’re lacking the earth and fire.

This causes an imbalance in the yin and yang of the energies channelled by the northwesterly winds flowing through the park, hence bringing in the unclean ‘qi’ from the Muddy Banks. As a result you should plant more trees to around the park to balance out the ‘earth’ energy and perhaps consider incorporating some element of fire around the park.” The park had since heeded the fengshui master's advice and increased the amount of greenery in its premises and lit some torches outside the Dinorama Nightmares ride.

But have their efforts paid off? How does the Malaysia Fantasy Theme Park measure up now? Our resident Newsbytes reporter agrinomy, armed with anti-nausea pills takes a day trip to find out.

The final verdict? Our resident reporter feels that the Malaysian Fantasy Theme Park is more suited for 3rd jobbers and above. Maplers who are 2nd job and below should be accompanied by a qualified 3rd or 4th job buddy. It's a good place to visit for its novelty effect but not really for repeat visits. Be armed with potions, anti-nausea pills, burn creams and other forms of medication in case of unforseen injury. Take care, have fun!

ROFL...btw how old are you? I will surely join yr guild if I have a character in Cass - pity I play in Aquila.

We definitely need more maplers who have real humour and are not lame. I have enough of the Hokkien expletives spewing players!
