Small museum with lots of cool illusion, both static and interactive. COVID safe staff.

Really enjoyed it will definitely go back.Its amazing for kids.

It was very fun. But pricey if you ask me. 15 per person for maybe 20 minute walk through. But it was interesting

Worth every cent. Such a unique experience! Enjoyed every bit of the place. The mirror room is my absolute favorite. I totally recommend it!

Terribly small....not worth the money. It is basically one small room with partitions. It was made out of the old ticket center at Union Station in the lower level. Pretty disappointed.

Had the greatest time of our life. We will be back to conquer the tower puzzle at the end. Thanks for a great, clean experience.

Fun family place to visit. Not crowded, we booked a time in advance. Lots of wows and hugs from all of us.

Cool setup, friendly staff, just a little short for the price.

Its a small room full of those old illusions from the back of cereal boxes. Nothing you havent seen before.

My 4 year and and I had a great time! The staff was very friendly, showing us how to see the illusions the best way. They did a great job engaging me kiddo and even took pictures for us. Kids under 6 are free, adults are $15. The museum is small, but it was still fun. Thanks for a great time, guys!

Was pretty cool to walk through the galaxy thingy other than that it was okay. Just wish it more wacky stuff to see and do.

It was our first experience, and it was a lot of fun. Granted, the space was small but it was worth it.

What a fun and interesting Museum for people of all ages!! The staff were all wonderful and helped us take a lot of the pictures Would Highly recommend!!

Sooo much fun!!!! It is a smaller museum but it has lots of really cool exhibits! The mirror illusion at the end is sooo funnyWe had a groupon so it was less than advertised. I would still have paid the full price! Its a little tricky to find....Upon entrance to Union Station, go down the stairs to the left and walk towards the end of the hall to find the museum!

Pretty neat tiny place. Probably take you 30-40min to finish it all.

This was a fun date idea. The only improvement I could think of is I wish there were more. There are some trippy illusions inside. There are some fun ones to do as a couple for sure. There was no line or wait, so we got in right away. Adult tickets, are $15.00 so I think its just a tad expensive for whats available.

Kept my family (wife, 7-year old and 1-year old) easily busy for a couple of hours. Don’t let the size fool you! They have plenty of activities, puzzles and illusions to keep you busy. We even had a live, interactive “show” during our visit. Would definitely recommend.

Super fun and the staff was extremely helpful!

Had a fun afternoon at the museum! Excellent spot bring the kids to interact at this museum. Just wish it was bigger.

Had a great time with my family here. Learned alot and the illusions were varied enough to entertain children and adults alike. The star of the show for me was definitely the room that changes how big you and a friend look. I forget the name but luckily I still have a pic. The only drawback I can think of for this place is its smaller than I expected but all in all I had a great time.

What a delightful place. And the young man who showed us what to do made it more enjoyable. We went on Monday, Jan. 20 th. It is a good family place. I loved the tunnel that made it appear the room was tilting when it wasnt. The room of mirrors, the giant kalidascope. Loved it. A little gem of an experience tucked away in the train center. A must visit if you come to Kansas City.

Good attractions but not worth the price. Its just two rooms of small illusions. The only thing thats worth it is the spinning tunnel. Its fun. But paying $30 for two people. Aint going back.

My boyfriend and I came here for a date. We really enjoyed ourselves !!

This was tons of fun. Our 10 year old boys really enjoyed the illusions. They had a magician there on a Sunday which was a nice touch. It was a little hard to find, you have to go to the lower level in Union Station. I’m docking it a star cause we thought it was a little pricey for the length of time you could spend in the museum.

Smaller than I anticipated but the staff were super knowledgeable about the installations and the installations themselves were really interesting and fun.

Very disappointed. After paying almost $60 for 4 people and $10 to park. It took us all of about 30min. To go thru. Including doubling back on a couple of things. Kids were super excited to go after seeing the photos online but we all left disappointed. Dont waist your money.

Fun for all ages and worth the price. Just bad direction on where it is located at. Spent too much time finding it.

It a different kind of experience. I just wish it longer

It was very amazing and fascinating visit. My wife and i really enjoyed the illusionist art here. Just mind blowing art it was. Puzzle and other games were really amusing !! Recommended to everyone

Amazing illusions, it was so fun seeing them in person versus online etc.

My boys and I had a great time. The price was reasonable and the staff was wonderful. They were all very helpful and friendly. They took pictures for us and thoroughly explained the exhibits if we needed help. Highly recommend.

Fun Sunday activity with our kids and their friends. It says good for kids but I would say 10 and up. Mine range from 11-13. They had a lot of fun. We got there right when they opened and it wasn’t crowded at all. Nice add to union station!

I have visited this place twice as theyve opened. Its a great place to take the kids they all loved it!

Very fun for kids and adults! Staff was very nice and helpful throughout exhibit. Amazing!

Loved the artwork. I wish it was a bigger exhibit though!

You have kids they will love there they do art there grandparents and parents could do artwork too

Was disappointed in how small the museum was, made less appealing by the Halloween decorations that spoiled some of the illusions. It was $15 for an adult and took us less than an hour to go through everything that was appealing to us. We had a family of 4 with two 9 year olds and they took about 15 min longer with kids going back through some of it. At over $40 for a family of 4, this is not for everyone, feel it should be half the price or included with science city.

For our family of 6 the cost was $93.16 with tax.Our 3 students had to pay adult entry fee since they did not have their student id with them.When our kids are out with us parents they dont bring their student ids. In fact, not sure if they ever carry those.I think its a silly rule. Looking at them its obvious they are not adults so to charge them that way was frustrating.Regardless there was a couple fun things in the museum but most of it was not.Definitely not worth the money.For a hundred dollars we could of went elsewhere and got more for our money.

Great place and cool illusions

This museum isnt very impressive. Its quite short and most of the exhibits you can find on the internet. The holograms were pretty cool though. There are a few exhibits you can interact with and some cute photo opportunities, if youre so inclined. With the exception of one lady, most of staff seemed quite disengaged. We were told a staff member would be in the gallery to photograph us both if we wanted, we didnt see anyone though. My boyfriend and I went. We had an okay time, spent about an hour. Probably wont revisit. $15 per adult.

The initial presentation was ridiculously rushed. The illusions were basic things that most people have already seen. Definitely not worth the price.

While it was certainly cool, admission is slightly overpriced. Seemed to be about 10-15 interactive experiences and 20 pictures/illusions. Family of 4 was $43. Probably more of a $33 experience, but a good time. Spent just over an hour there.

Small and underwhelming. The museum space is very small and contains very few illusions that a regular person hasn’t seen or heard of before. There are a few nice photo opportunities if that’s what you come for but for the most part the space is small, the illusions are common, and it’s a very expensive experience. I felt like we spent most of our time trying to see how long we could entertain ourselves as to not be disappointed at the entry cost.

Its pretty short for $15 less than an hour is needed to see it all

Well worth 15 bucks as it provided a little over an hour of entertainment. Very fascinating and excellent for unique photo opportunity. It is located at the union station where you can visit other attractions like science city and an excellent restaurant.

If you ever wonder how illusion happens. Take a trip to Union Station.

Seemed over priced... Thought it would be longer, we could make it through in about 30 minutes. We luckily went when we were the only people there so kids could run all over. One staff member was excellent and very engaged, she was great!

Small, could do with lots more things.

We had a blast here. After seeing mixed reviews I didnt know what to expect but I had a blast. I will definitely be taking my nieces and nephews.

This is not worth the money to come to this exhibit. I was told to plan on spending an hour to an hour and a half here. My kids were done in 30 min and ready to go. We went as part of a group and we were not a large group, but it was so crowded. Its a neat concept, but for the price point I would have rather gone somewhere else where we could have spent several hours. In addition, I was charged $10 to park for the 45 min we spent in Union Station.

Fun times with the entire family. Kept the little ones busy and was educational. A breath of fresh air and a break from electronics. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Very small for the price. We spent maybe 20mins in there. It was really neat but not worth it.

Really fun, not very large so it goes quickly

It was a pretty cool museum! I’m not sure if its worth the cost though. The two coolest things there were of the two videos I posted.

Super cool experience but it was pretty quick to get through. Only took about an hour

It was fun. The guy that helped us with the taking pictures was awesome.

Really cute for a date. A lot of opportunities to take great pics

Cool place but a little expensive for such a short exhibit. Good place though to take some interesting pictures.

We enjoyed this little gem of a museum located inside Union station. Great for older kids and up. Great photo ops!

A little small but worth the price. Expect to spend maybe an hour here.

We came here unsure of what to expect and staggered away with a great experience! If you like stuff that fools your mind and eyes you’ll have fun here. My granddaughter had a good time and that was the important part.

A very fun place to visit! Lots of cool illusions and fantastic photo opps!! The workers were friendly and helpful.

We bought tickets online to save time. When we arrived, the ticket line was enormous without a separate line for those who had already purchased. We asked the man at the counter if we needed to wait in line if we already purchased tickets, and he responded, I dont know. I guess so. We went to the website to see if we could call for information, but there wasnt any number listed! Thirty minutes later we made it back to the ticket counter. Well keep you updated after our experience....

Great jist a little small

Definitely not worth 15 dollars a person. Maybe a “suggested donation” of $5. About 90% can be found online. What can’t be found online is extremely dumb.

Not very big but the illusions are interesting and the kids will enjoy it. About 30 to 45 minutes to see and interact with everything.

Awesomeness. I a blast bringing my family out there and seeing their faces light up. It even got my brother-in-law confused but I loved every single minute of it.

Fun place to visit and photograph. Aliitle small on the amount of things to see, but whats there is very cool.

I won post any pictures because that will take away from the experience. The wait time was ridiculous, and unorganized. There needs to be a separate entrance for those who bought tickets online. There is no reason that there is ONE person taking/selling tickets, AND giving 5 minute instructions per person.There should be one person selling the tickets, and another person giving the instructions to make things more efficient. There should also be another entrance for those who bought tickets online. Its a little concerning that there is no benefit of ordering online, and I will keep a close eye on my credit card statement now. Not sure I trust that, respectfully.I would suggest using the person who is selling product, and just escort people down that little hallway to the left behind the register. Its worth a try at least.While I understand the other reviews that these are all old concepts of illusion that have been seen before, that wasnt really the point for me. Its something to do to get out and be active and engaging with others. We complain that KC needs more, then complain once someone tries to bring that.I would still suggest fixing that front entrance, and adding more employees or volunteers. Overall, our visit was about 45 minutes, and another 30 minutes of waiting in line. It could be longer if you read every info panel, so take your monies worth.

Great time for those familiar with optical illusions or new to them!

Really cool place worth the trip great for kids and Adults make sure to take lots f pictures and be amazed

Pretty pricey for such a small museum. Cool attractions but quick and limited.

Fun, but small . Takes only about 15 mins to go through

It is not worth $15.Staff is funny and helpful.

You gotta walk through slowly and give your eyes a break every once in a while! the exhibit itself was truly something special, but the length of the tour didnt justify the price.

Great and modern entertainment! Smaller than I anticipated, but family friendly.

Short but good expected to be a little bigger great illusions and great for kids and small dates

Fun place, very tiny spaces and easily crowded.

So much fun!

My family & I saw this on a Facebook ad and thought it was cool, so we checked it out, and after going through it, I was dissapointed. Some of the things they had were cool and interesting and fun, but the line to get into the place took longer than actually going in and looking around. It’s tinier than what I imagined it would be- and definitely not worth the $15 ticket price (it should be more like $10 or even a little lower than that)Plus, (and this might not be their fault), the place was extremely packed and it was so small, it was hard to view some of the stuff.At the end of the day, this is what i’m going to say: If you have the money to spend, go for it. It’s a pretty cool place, and if you like posting on social media, it’s pretty instagrammable, but if you’re tight on cash and like “should we do this or science city or an escape room?”, choose science city. You’ll get more for your buck there.

Way over priced... half the stuff you could view online such as wall art. (Way over priced) !! Oh yes... and way over priced.

Not worth it. It’s a small place, nothing interesting or mind blowing about it.

For the price, its far worth paying $15

Awesome!

Quick but fun for kids

Such a fun place to visit!

Difficult to find in Union Station, hidden downstairs with no signs pointing the way. Very expensive for the experience. Most displays have been seen all over online. Not worth the money.

Neat illusions, but expensive for what is there.

Great museum

Super Fun

-1 star because I got a headache, but that is to be expected.

Fun, interactive museum

Amazing place, kind staff and great brain puzzles

Wow! Fun for everyone!

Small exhibit, not worth $15 or the 15 minutes it takes to walk through the tiny room it’s located in. Thumbs down and would not recommend

I cant believe they charge that amount of money for that.

Not completely wheelchair accessible

Fun place.

Small but cool

Small, very uncreative exhibit
