New Interactive Adventure
Coming to Adventureland in the Magic Kingdom This Fall
A
new interactive quest called A Pirate’s Adventure: Treasures of the Seven
Seas will debut in Adventureland at Magic Kingdom Park this spring. Guests
will use a pirate map and magic talisman to help them complete five
different pirate raids throughout Adventureland. The goal is to help locate
different Treasures of the Seven Seas and fight off pirate enemies like the
Royal Navy and Captain Barbossa, among others. If guests help Captain Jack
succeed in all the missions, they’ll be welcomed as part of his new crew. If
not, they’ll face the wrath of the cruel sea alone.
