About this audio guide
This guide to Warner Bros. World Yas Island follows a striking claim from one of the park's show-control engineers: this was the first theme park designed and rehearsed entirely inside computer software before construction began. It traces what that meant for the ride and show systems threaded through the building, including a curved screen built for one of its flying-theater rides. A tip: watch the screens overhead as a ride begins and think about how many times that sequence was already tested in code.
