I'm not sure whether I think €13 entry for an adult is good or absolutely too much. I tend to think it's too much.
Overall, it was quite fun to be there, but I've already experienced/seen/tried a lot of things at high school.
The background music was a big plus: Annemaykanterait.
We won't go again, but it was quite nice.
The toilets were clean and included in the price.

That’s is a good museum, as far as it goes to interactions rooms. Or , if really like puzzles. It’s small. The thing is, entrance is more expensive than the other museums in Zadar. They should either invest to make it more unusual and attractive, or make it same price . Overall, pleasant. My subjective opinion.

The pictures of this museum imply its a lot bigger and better than it actually is. Some of them were clever and clearly a hit especially with the young. Others were seem before in other places and Internet.
Another of steps to enter and no chairs around so not good for disabled.
We also found it overpriced for which essentially was two rooms.

Entrance costs €10 per person, so we paid €20 for two adults. Also, the museum is crowded. We waited around 40 minutes before being able to enter the museum and once inside we had difficulty taking advantage of the (rare) activities offered because there were so many people.
Finally the biggest problem: the “illusions” that the museum offers boil down to simple tables on which appear illusions seen and reviewed and sometimes not working as well as puzzle beasts in a box. There are, however, 2/3 activities, a little more original and fun but these were crowded…
The museum can perhaps be nice with (very) young children who are easily amazed, but otherwise move on…

Charged 13€ for what was ultimately 30 mins (walked around twice)! If you like wooden puzzles and illusions that have been online since 1999 this is the place for you.

Some illusions made 0 sense even with written explanations. There were a few interactive ones that were amusing but not justify the price. It is a single room in size there is barely anything.

Kids may enjoy this but as adults total rip off and waste of time.

Staff were friendly although not present in exhibition.

This was a really disappointing visit! The attractions were basic and nothing we hadn’t seen before. It was certainly not worth the 10euro per person price tag. Sadly could not recommend wasting your time or money.

We expected (or hoped) on more. The waiting before we could enter was as long the visit itself. In 30 to 45 min you have seen and done it all. Would have been ok, but not for 70 kn per person. Most of the illusions were also familiar.

Funny, many things to look at and be confused/entertained and amazed by. Like the vortex tunnel and the tilted room.
Went with my 15 year old and we had a great time. Really recommend as a break from all the ancient stuff in the old town.

It rained in Zadar so had to occupy ourselves with some indoor activities. Googled what to do and it was a toss up between this and the museum of glass, easy decision made and into the museum of illusions we went.

We got robbed at the entrance charging 70 kuna per person for what turned out to be roughly 10 minutes of fast paced walking as it was that dull and boring.

The wacky mirrors akin to the circus mirrors that make your reflection warp was basically crinkled cooking foil.

It had a handful of “illusion” posters on the wall that looked cheap and tacky.

The only decent thing was the spinning room/bridge but one go at it and you don’t want another.

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

It cost 60 kunas (£7.50) for entry and was well worth it; i hadn't seen most of the illusions before!
If you go, make sure you go in the vortex tunnel at the back of the musuem as its the best exhibit.
The museum is beside the Museum of Ancient Glass and is on the outskirts of the old town centre.
