I hypothesise that adventure land is going to get a retheme sometime in the future. Its a long running area and it only has spinball now.

Never really existed in the first place to be honest. Areas like that are just a name really because they can't just call it Zone 2 or Tarmac Land. Spinball never belonged to an area really.

True, but it'd be cool if they made something out of it. Having a new themed area would be nice since the last major retheme was dark forest in 2010

Spinball Whizzer? No thanks, I prefer CBeebies Pinball MachineI think CBeebies Land might beg to differ....

It did appear under Adventure Land during the Christmas event.
Don’t think towers really know what to call it tbh.

How does one gain Alton Towers XP? I could do with leveling up.

I suspect this is what it will feel like when walking into Alton Towers this year for me and my wallet. His head is obviously bigger after his amazingly good report a few weeks back.

Whoah there, let's not get too excited throwing M bombs around when describing so called Dark Forest's "retheme".

£1429 with MAP discount I believe.

Whilst I am not one to complain about less arcades, on my visit last year I felt the multiple closed/boarded up stalls, restaurants, kiosks etc gave the park an almost abandoned feeling in places. This will only add to that.
Ps - the state of that roof and mismatched wood though.

I hope they have some of that green wood preservative in a tin somewhere

I always felt the one place that would thematically fit an arcade (Spinball) is the only place they didn’t bother putting one.

They might add some of those nice posters to the walls before opening like the ones they added in 2016, for all we know.
Or maybe a potential idea would be to replace the arcades with internet cafes/gaming lounges, as stuff like Fortnite seems to be all the rage at the moment. Could be a good way for Towers to provide activities for non-riders and it would embrace modern technology.
