Cool attraction for people finding something to do in Seattle! The illusions range from optical picture illusions on the wall, to 3d puzzle solving, to entire rooms that are great for photos! I went in a group of 3 and tickets were $121 after tax and fees. It's not a guided tour, rather they have staff along the path to assist, take pictures, and give advice if you are stumped. Will definitely bring more people here!

We walked in about 11 on a Saturday. It was not busy and we were able to casually enjoy all the exhibits. They have docents placed strategically to answer questions and some will take pictures for you.

It was a fun experience for the teens and tweens in our group. We all liked how interactive it is and the staff is also very helpful with tips on how to take pictures. Parking is all over the place at local parking garages.

This was our first time checking out the museum, and while it’s on the smaller side, it packs a lot into the space. The interior is playful and artsy, with each room offering unique optical illusions that feel like stepping into a different world. The kids loved the interactive walls for fun, gravity-defying photos, and the trick mirrors were a big hit. It’s perfect for a rainy Seattle day when you’re looking for something fun and low-key with the family—just be prepared, though; it’s pretty pricey for the size.
