My 8-year-old daughter and I went in. the waiting room alone was definitely something to see. even though the tickets were slightly expensive at the time they have gone down since then by half. we started to walk through the exhibit I was floored. the amount of time effort and energy and creativity the people that put this together did in this space is far from just saying its amazing! ITS FREAKING PHENOMENAL! Each exhibit is well thought out and they are all awesome photo ops. We had a blast! A year later I took my 17-year-old son. The price went down but also some of the exhibits were gone. I was informed that they were building something else in place of, but was disappointed because a couple of my favorite exhibits were now missing. the rain room was awesome, but it's gone now. I think they should bring it back because walking through a rainstorm and not getting a single drop of rain on you is mind blowing. The fact that I can bring both of my children with huge age gaps and interests and both of them found this place to be interesting,fun and unforgettable is really all that has to be said.

It took my friends and I approx. 45 mins., at most to walk through the entire place. And that's with us thoroughly exploring every nook and cranny. Kids will definitely have a blast here and will most likely spend more time playing with all the sensory effects but for my friends and I, we will most likely not visit again.

With everyone rushing to close, we understand how things can be overlooked, but those items should not have been immediately discarded without giving us a chance to contact the business and retrieve them.

Unfortunately, this experience raised serious concerns about the business's sincerity, communication, and commitment to its customers. This is not an acceptable policy.

The gentleman at the door was so nice. He showed the movie" Tomboy and the champ". It was a good movie. Sadly, I didn't have time and had to leave at the screen. Sorry. I walked around the exhibitions. This was all about the rice industry in the Katy area. I was born in Asia. Rice is a staple in our culture. It was so intriguing that I checked many of the readings. I asked the man at the door about the history of rice in Katy. He told me " Probably, German immigrants brought rice here". I guessed that the Japanese taught how to grow rice in Texas. I was wrong.

Each room was exciting - although for the price the staff could make the experience a little better for the children. More interactive in my opinion. I do not recommend purchasing the scavenger hunt, that was a waste of money for the 'prize' the kids get at the end. It wasn't an interactive experience for the kids - there wasn't any guidance at all from the staff. Being able to get all of the photos for free with the barcode was a sweet deal and having the photo booths in each room was the best part!

Brain teasers, infinity rooms, trick photography and other cool ways to challenge one's perception could be found throughout the museum. Overall, the museum isn't very big, but it's definitely entertaining and a unique way to spend the afternoon, especially on a rainy day. I definitely enjoyed the experience.

It is little hidden but it didn't take long to find it after lookin at the directory. We didn't book tickets ahead of time but it was easy to scan the QR code and purchase them on the spot. Age 4 & under are free. It is a self paced museum and there are several staff throughout which help you with various installations & how to position for the best photo op. They even have stools for the little ones. The exhibit is fun for all ages which is nice when you have kids at various ages & definitely enjoyable for adults! Our favorite were astronaut picture mirror illusion, spinning tunnel & life size 3D pin art impression wall. There are a lot of fun photo ops in an upside space shuttle room and when you flip the picture upside, it creates a cool effect. There are a lot of cool things we also picked up in the gift shop at the end. I highly recommend this museum for families! My kids were already wanting to go back as we were leaving!

We did not buy advance ticket, the line didn't take that long to get through anyways. We didn't do any special exhibits (I don't think there were any at the time) but there is plenty to see that will take some time to get through. Guest speakers, tram rides, sites outside, & a good time indoors. We went the weekend after Labor Day, there was no additional charge for our tram ride. Something to add to your list if your in the area or willing to drive a few hours (DFW), it's worth it. I do see people mentioned the food is pricey... there are so many places close by if you want other options. Staff seemed pretty happy to be there, they are big on pitching the souvenir photo sales.
