Oct 16 – News on the new Kim Possible game at Epcot …
The new Kim Possible interactive game will be opening soon at Epcot (no definite date has yet been released). Guests will volunteer to be an agent for Team Possible by visiting the recruitment centers that will be stationed at World Showcase Plaza, Innoventions East or Innoventions West.
Agents will be given a Mission Pass that will tell them where to report and at what time. Agents will report to Field Stations in Norway, Italy or the International Gateway. This is where agents will be given the Kimmunicator which is similar to a mobile phone but its only job is to make events happen around the park. Agents will leave the Field Station and go to one of the seven pavilions (Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Japan, France and United Kingdom ) where there will be a mission to solve which should take 45-60 minutes. “It brings technology — without being invasive — from the Future World environment into World Showcase,” said Jim MacPhee, Walt Disney World’s vice president for Epcot.
Once at the pavilion interesting things will happen if buttons are correctly pressed on the Kimmunicator. Agents can erupt the volcano in the Mexico pavilion, blow a puff of smoke from a chimney in Norway or make a jade monkey appear in China.
Just one mission or all seven can be completed but at the end the kimmunicators are left at "Kimmunicator decommissioning drops". Interestingly when the test phase was in operation the Kimmunicator was a real mobile phone so a deposit had to be paid first. The device has now been modified so no deposit will now be required.
