A world unique attraction, Puzzling World has been pioneering weird and wonderful puzzling eccentricity for over 40 years.

Highlights

  • Must do South Island attraction
  • Vast range of puzzling illusions
  • Ideal activity for friends and family

No visit to Wanaka is complete without stopping in to experience Puzzling World.

Experience everything Puzzling World has to offer with this great value for money combo, which includes the following:

The Great Maze - Puzzling World developed the first of the world's modern-style mazes. Have loads of fun cracking this mind bending puzzle designed to entertain people of ALL ages. Allow 30 minutes to 1 hour (Emergency doors for quick exit if required)

Hologram Hall - an intriguing collection of 3-D holograms sure to fascinate and challenge your perceptions.

Hall of Following Faces - 168 giant models of famous faces appear to turn and watch you. A world unique encounter where the famous follow you left and right, up and down.

Ames Forced Perspective Room - from the outside looking in this room appears perfectly normal but in reality it is cleverly distorted to shrink or enlarge it's inhabitants. A technique used in The Lord of The Rings film to create tall and tiny people, this Alice in Wonderland type experience is always a favorite.

Sculptillusion Gallery - Puzzling Worlds latest illusion room is a showcase of visual trickery at it's best. Explore over 20 larger than life sculptures, artworks and illusionary displays.

Tilted House - this illusion room is tilted at an angle so when you enter your brain compensates and straightens the room at the expense of the displays. Things now seem to hang at impossible angles creating mind bending fun and great photo opportunities.


Also onsite for all to enjoy are the Leaning & Tumbling Towers (great photo opportunities) and the Puzzle Centre Gift Shop & Café - relax and try your hand at the tables full of puzzles while you enjoy light refreshments, or shop for gift and treats from the amazing range of puzzling oddities only found at Puzzling World!

Toute la famille a adoré

Nous (couple de quadra) avons fait Puzzling World avec nos enfants de 6 et 8 ans et nous avons tous adoré ! Que ce soit les salles des illusions ou (le must), le labyrinthe. Nous avons fait celui-ci en 2 équipes de 2 et on a bien rigolé. Le + jeune en a juste eu marre à la fin et on a donc pris une des sorties de "secours" plutôt que de rechercher la sortie officielle. 😅

Funny

C'était notre deuxième fois au Puzzling world, un incontournable pour s'amuser et avoir les sens perturbés ! Le labyrinthe est juste dingue !

Très bon moment en famille

Un très bon moment dans ce musée/salle de jeux qui nous surprend et défie notre équilibre, nos sens et nos perceptions. Le labyrinthe met notre sens de l’orientation et notre patience a rude épreuve mais on s’amuse beaucoup ! Nous recommandons ce lieu pour passer un très bon moment en famille !

Super moment en famille!

Très chouette lieu, nos enfants de 8 et 12 ans se sont bien amusés (en dessous de 8 ans c est peut être plus compliqué de comprendre la partie jeux d illusions). Merci !
