== Biography ==
Maus-au-Chocolat tells the chaotic story of confectioner Gustav E. Lehmann's cake factory in Berlin at the turn of the 20th century, where mice broke in, ate the cakes and wreaked havoc. The owner of the cake factory hurriedly contacted master exterminator Oskar Koslowski. He quickly drove to the cake factory and tried to drive the mice away with piping bags filled with liquid chocolate. However, this failed because the number of mice was too high and the mice also defended themselves against the intruder by throwing pieces of cake and chocolate. Koslowski fled the factory, humiliated and to the cheers of the mice.
However, Koslowski wasn't done with the mice. He wrote a newspaper article in the Berliner Tageblatt in which he offered work for "brave mouse hunters". This is where the passengers come into play. At the gate of the factory, through which the passengers enter the waiting area, Koslowski's voice can be heard again and again through a loudspeaker, recruiting more new mouse hunters. When the new mouse hunters have walked through the cake factory and arrive at the station, a video by Oskar Koslowski draws their attention to the safety instructions. The journey takes place in rotating chaises, each of which can hold four people and three of which are used per passage. The chaises are decorated with chocolate spots and mice sitting on the chaise. Visitors sit back to back to each other during the ride. However, only the equally positioned drivers compete against each other.
During the approximately seven-minute ride, the chaises head for seven different rooms (administration, storage room, kitchen, baking room, cake room, cooling chamber, sales room), in which visitors have to try to score as many points as possible. The rooms are shown on screens that can be viewed through the 3D glasses.
The rooms that the visitor drives through between the individual 3D sequences were designed to match the theme. Some scenes are even moving, but no classic animatronics are used. Appropriate fragrances are used in the cake room, while the temperature in the cooling chamber is slightly lower than in the other rooms. Additionally, Koslowski's voice is heard when driving between two rooms, encouraging the visitors.
To earn points, passengers pull devices that represent piping bags and fire brown or white chocolate, depending on their seat. The positions of the individual hits are determined by sensors behind the screens. You can get most of the points by shooting the mice, but there are also many other objects that can increase the score. The number of points to be achieved is always on the corresponding object. The minimum is 100 points and the maximum is 5,000 points. The sufficiency of the respective object determines how many points it earns the passenger. Sayings and puns by Oskar Koslowski can be heard again and again both during and between the individual sequences.
When the ride is over, you get a glimpse of your score along with the onride photo that is taken midway through the ride and can be purchased at the exit. Finally, the high score of the entire attraction can be seen, while Koslowski's gratulates the visitors' performances and states that more mouse hunters are needed to drive the mice away.
