When I saw these great walk-through pictures of "Le Defi de Cesar", I must say that I was more than impressed!
Parc Asterix, the French park that is build around the very popular (except for North America)cartoon characters who resisted the Roman Empire, has revived the Madhouse-concept with fresh ideas and lots of state-of-the-art-technology.
The visitor is recruited to join Cesars army to finally conquer the small village of the hero rebels. So far so boring! But check out the pictures, I am sure that you can get the story.
The final idea of putting the actual mad-house inside an ancient galley is brilliant and makes great use of the imaginary universe of the cartoons.
The pics are of course one big SPOILER! If you plan to visit the park I would recommend to click the back button now:

People are not happy with the ride, calling it a waste of time and they already voted... At 1 pm, on a busy day, the ride is a walk on while the coasters each got 1-2 hours waits.

I´guessed that using screens as windows is a great way to enhance the madhouse illusion.

For example: "Wo ist der Flugplatz?" (Where's the airport?)
"ein kalt beir danka." (A Cold beer please.)
And the most important one: "Wo ist der klogen?" (Where's the bathroom?)
