Miragica's spinning wild mouse coaster was known as Spaccatempo, which translates from the Italian into English as "Time Breaker".
The ride had a nominal horological theme as its name would imply, the main feature being a huge clock theming centrepiece at the front of the ride.
It was an example of a Compact version of Zamperla's Twister Coaster and was much as you might expect with the usual switchback turns and a few drops, all designed to help the four seater cars spin on their axis during the second half of the ride.
Spaccatempo was quite smooth and did a decent job with its spinning, but as a standard spinning wild mouse it lacked much imagination beyond its unusual clock theming element.
