 Disney has announced, with very little details, a new interactive experience at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. The new interactive experience is called "Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom" and is a role-play adventure through Magic Kingdom. Merlin the Magician will recruit guests to become apprentice sorcerers and then help them with maps and clues that show where and how to defeat an army of Disney villains. 

This adventure will open in early 2012, but to hold you over a piece of concept art is below.
