4.00Fantastic experiences! Very cool! Costed us a lot, but would like more staff to show us how more of the illusions could be created. We experienced one of the staff as deceptive, very impolite and quite reluctant in our understanding of how to see and understand the illusions. This put a damper on the experience, she cried also when I lost my phone in the floor. Pressed us and said that we should carry out one of the illusions in a certain way, even though we did not want this. Such an employee who is not serviceminded towards visitors, should not work with people. The two younger employees who were helpful were very welcoming and polite. Also come with suggestions on how to relate to the illusions. I would like to come back, but if I meet the rude employee, I turn in the door!
Fun for all

5.00Terrific place to visit; some of these are more known than others, but collected together they make an amazing display. Many of them are interactive and hugely engaging. Well worth the admission price and a great thing to do in bad weather!
Too expensive to experience little

2.00This is not close to being worth the price. 50 minutes is more than enough time, and then the price becomes too high. Very tight entrance party, and the feeling of being on a collection tape more than being at a museum. Are there 100 better alternative ways to spend that sum in Oslo
Funny but too expensive

3.00We entered late, at 6pm, which gave us a discount. The illusions are good and very funny, explanations are okay. The Flash light Experiment was out of order. For some tricks you need three people. Staff was helpful and the late afternoon made sure we could spend more time where ever we wanted. After some 35 minutes we have been through, fortunately we payed the lower price, but is was f.e. still some 6 NOK more than for the whole MUNCH museum.
The Paradox museum: interact and focus on it.

5.00This museum is utterly weird and interactive. It allows to discover new ways of modern art interacting with it. It's worth visiting it!!
All right visit

3.00Would like to be met some by someone in a little better mood, but met someone who did not quite had the day. Meeted with expectative smiles that were not answered. Unfortunately a little too little fun for the money. Here it should be added to NO more that makes it worth it. Were kind of over so fast, and even though we took an extra round through the museum, it was kind of just a few things that were worth the extra round.
Nice but short experience

4.00Very fun to watch, friendly staff to help and explain, as well as take pictures for us who are only two. A little short experience relative to the sum.
Expensive, boring, and repetitive.

2.00Completely uninteresting, and shameful. The word museum is completely misleading. Most of this can be found for free via Google, it gives very little to see this live.
Great, interesting experiments.
