Forbidden Valley - The Edge Games

The Edge Interactive Games can be found at the entrance to Forbidden Valley and was first added to the park as part of the development of Thunder Valley way back in 1992. This gives the arcade the honour of being the longest continually serving attraction in the area, not bad for what is essentially a reclaimed mobile office unit.

Games have come and gone over the years but the arcade by and large retains its original look, though the distinctive blade signs were added in 2002 as part of the Dynamo expansion of the area. More recently, the arcade became the haunt of choice of guests who were perhaps a little too timid for Sub-Terra.

In 2024, The Edge got much edgier when it was removed and replaced by R-Cade, a new custom built arcade, a permanent structure around double the height to allow greater diversity in the arcade units that can operate in the building.

The former building was one of the oldest in the park and whilst it might have looked like a permanent building, it was actually a pair of very well disguised Portakabins. The 'temporary' building did very well to last 30 years, but it is great to see the park investing in new permanent infrastructure.
