The present invention relates to a ride system that can include static and/or interactive elements and is arranged for high passenger throughput with additional dimensions. To this end, an amusement ride is provided for amusement of groups of visitors of an amusement park or the like, the amusement ride including a platform, divided into multiple segments. The segments are arranged to facilitate the groups of visitors mutually shielded from each other; and interactive objects, divided circumferentially around the platform are provided, for interaction of the groups of visitors with the interactive objects. The segments of the platform include electronic input devices for electronic interaction of the group with the interactive objects by control of the input devices, and the segments being polygon segments of the platform, and wherein at least one of the platform and the interactive objects are arranged for relative rotation with respect to each other around a center of the platform for relative movement between the segments with the groups and the interactive objects.
