CSE Entertainment CSE Entertainment: Making an impact that moves!

14/06/2026

We're bringing a new sport to iWall soon 👀

Some of the most successful active games share a common trait: People understand them instantly.
- No onboarding
- No explanation
- No learning curve

Just movement, competition, and participation.
Our next iWall release follows exactly that principle.

Coming soon 🏐

“Easy to start” is becoming one of the most important design principles in active entertainment. Why so?

The moment between noticing something and joining it is extremely short. Especially with kids and families.

If participation feels immediate, engagement tends to happen naturally. If it feels complicated, most people simply move on..

This sounds simple, but it has a surprisingly large impact on:
- dwell time
- repeat interaction
- guest flow
- overall energy inside the venue

The best attractions reduce the distance between curiosity and participation almost completely.

Small children have always been part of the reason why we do what we do.

Over the years, we have received plenty of feedback from families and operators that there are too few high-quality active gaming products designed specifically for young children. We also heard stories about younger children who wanted to join the fun but found the experience was built for someone bigger as the equipment was too large.

That feedback inspired us to create something new.

Over the past year, we have developed two new products designed especially for young children: iWall Kids and cyclo Kids. At the same time, we completely renewed the cycloBEAT bike platform together with local partners in Kajaani.

For us, this project is about much more than new products. It is about making the joy of movement and play accessible to more children and families.

The development work was supported by the Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment, whose support has played an important role in our growth journey over the years.

From Kajaani, Finland, it is possible to develop, manufacture and export innovative active entertainment products to customers around the world.

One thing high-performing venues usually have in common is that participation starts quickly.

At AIP last week, we saw it happen again and again. Guests walked past, noticed someone already playing, and joined in within seconds.

People rarely want to stop and figure something out in the middle of a busy environment. They react to movement, energy, and especially to seeing someone else already playing. That social effect is often what pulls the next person in.

What we saw at AIP is the same pattern we see every day across our customer locations around the world. When an experience is easy to understand and easy to join, participation tends to build naturally.

That is often the difference between attractions that stay busy and attractions that struggle to generate repeat interaction, even when both look equally impressive on paper.

Over time, the concepts that perform best are usually the ones that feel effortless for everyone involved. Guests immediately know what to do, groups can jump in together without explanation, and operators do not need staff constantly guiding or managing the experience.

When an attraction works naturally for both the guest and the operator, engagement becomes much easier to sustain throughout the day.

AIP also gave us the opportunity to celebrate innovation across the industry. Congratulations to Scribbleton, winner of the Innovation Award 2026, presented by CSE's VP of Sales EMEA during the event gala.

At AIP Conference yesterday, one topic keeps surfacing in conversations around indoor leisure environments: How do you create experiences that people do not just notice, but actually participate in?

That distinction matters more than it might seem.

Because in many venues, the challenge is no longer adding more attractions. It is creating experiences that naturally pull people in, generate repeat interaction, and work consistently in real operations.

The strongest concepts today are increasingly evaluated through operational performance:
- repeat engagement
- space utilization
- dwell time
- guest flow
- ease of operation

We enjoyed the conversations in Leeds and looking forward to meeting more operators and partners throughout the event!

One of the hardest things to design in active entertainment is an experience that feels instantly intuitive. Especially in high-traffic environments, every second of hesitation matters.

If guests need instructions, onboarding, or staff guidance before they start playing, participation slows down almost immediately:
- fewer people join
- spectators stay spectators
- engagement drops faster
- throughput suffers

That is why simplicity is not a limitation in attraction design. It's often what makes the experience commercially effective at all. The best active gaming experiences feel obvious before anyone explains them.

Curious how others see this: What is the most intuitive attraction, game, or guest experience you have seen recently, and what made it work so well?

We're exhibiting at the AIP Conference 2026 in Leeds, UK.

If you're attending, come and meet the CSE team at Leeds Armouries on June 4th and discover how active entertainment can help create more engaging guest experiences.

See you in Leeds!

One theme came up repeatedly during conversations at SkyCon this year: The industry is moving from attraction-focused thinking toward operational maturity.

For growing chains and franchise operators, the conversation is no longer only about adding something new. It is increasingly about questions like:
- Can this scale across locations?
- Does it work with minimal operational friction?
- Will guests immediately understand it?
- Can it maintain engagement over time?
- Does it improve the overall environment, not just one corner of it?

That shift is important. Because in practice, long-term success usually comes from concepts that are operationally repeatable, not just visually impressive.

Great discussions in Austin last week. Thanks again to everyone we had the chance to meet.

A big thank you to everyone we had the chance to connect with at SkyCon in Austin, TX. It was a blast!

Great conversations around how experience-led environments are evolving, and how operators across the industry are thinking about engagement, consistency, and scaling in practise. It's always good to step out of day-to-day and exchange perspectives with people shaping where this space is heading!

Looking forward to staying in touch and continuing the conversation.

As FEC concepts scale across multiple locations, the conversation naturally shifts from replication to operational maturity.

Different stakeholders begin evaluating the environment through different lenses:
- For ownership and leadership, the focus is typically on return per square meter, payback time, and how efficiently a concept can scale across a network.
- For operations, the priority shifts to reliability, safety, and predictable day-to-day use without increasing complexity.
- For guest experience and marketing teams, the focus is on differentiation, repeat engagement, and how the space performs over time in terms of dwell time and return visits.
- And for design and development partners, the key question is often how easily a concept can be specified, integrated, and delivered within project constraints.

While the perspectives differ, the underlying expectation remains the same: the experience needs to work in practice, not just in concept.

Where do you see the biggest gap today: in concept design, or in scaling ex*****on?
