Performance

Vs. other coasters at Six Flags New England

But overall its a smooth ride and a great coaster to do with the whole family.

Isaiah White

I rode alone in the back left and it has a lot of hard left turns so I was going slammed into that bar in the middle of the backseat.

Kellen Grady

Longer than other mice layouts I’ve ridden, which is a positive if you’re into these, but it really just prolonged the pain.

Dyna Mo

This is one of the most uncomfortable wild mice I’ve ridden but it also is more forceful than most wild mice I’ve ridden so I do rank it higher than a lot of them but the ride is still nothing special...

Carter Eckhart

It is very very violent and throws you all around and it is painful.

Inverted Thrills

The only positive was the time in line was short, but I can see why.

Christine Jean

The line was very short, and it’s extremely re-rideable.

Desmond Camell

For some reason you can only sit 2 to a car resulting in a longer line than expected.

Clayton Latone

...see that there are many carts going at once you would think that the operation would be quick and the line would move quickly, but the line moves very slowly to be honest, that’s the main con for me.

Leeroy Osama
Airtime

The airtimes were great and the size made it take up so little space.

Desmond Camell

The hill gives no airtime at all and the brake run causes you to jolt into the restraint.

Great theming

Criticised for

Painful or bruisingOverratedLong waitsUncomfortable restraints

It is very very violent and throws you all around and it is painful.

Inverted Thrills, Captain Coaster review

Just never been a fan of the tight lateral turns at the top that zig-zag back and forth.

Max S., Captain Coaster review

The brakes on this were very abrupt and uncomfortable but other than that just a normal wild mouse.

Jack Jack J., Captain Coaster review

The ride is ass and just shut down a lot, but I went on with a stranger I saw for like 2 seconds.

Emily Y., Captain Coaster review

I was left with a bruise the size of a grapefruit on my thigh after riding this just once.

Abel, Captain Coaster review

Not fun! I thought it was going to be a good ride and i went up the chainlift but when we got to those sharp turns, i felt like i was going to fly out of the coaster or it was going to derail!
