    The trick house is an interesting place filled with tricky puzzles and puzzling mazes.

    What are your thoughts on the trick house? Did you enjoy the little puzzles? Which maze was the hardest to get through? Most importantly, what did you think of the trick master?

    I think that the trick house is a great extra thingy, I never really did anything with it in the originals, but I decided to check it out in ORAS and it was actually a really fun place.

    Trick House is amazing! Ah, I really love this place, back in RSE and now in ORAS. The hardest puzzle for me right now is the tile one though, I can't beat it haha. it's the first time one has really given me trouble.

    Is a really fun place, The Trick Master in my opinion is a really fun guy xD. I am not too advanced in the story but I already made one and it is very nice to play >.<

    I was disappointed that Game Freak removed two of the puzzles, those being the flipping gates and slippery floor. If they didn't want those puzzles specifically, they could've just made two completely new ones that utilized the current graphics. And they replaced the switch puzzle with a Rock Smash one, so it isn't like they weren't against creating new puzzles either.

    Fewer puzzles aside, the Trick House was all right; I liked how you could acquire the numerous delicacies. The last one is by far the most challenging and annoying. It's bad enough you don't have much control over the direction you go in, but the areas where you can't even see the spinners is what really makes it difficult and requires quite a bit of focus. As for the prizes, most of them were mediocre; I like the tent, though.

    Have to agree with all of Lucy's post. I was also really disappointed they cut out some of the puzzles, and the prizes were... okay. The puzzles themselves were very interesting and I had fun with some of them, the last one especially haha. It took me quite a bit to figure out.

    The trick master is great as always, I love how he still spins straight up into the roof, lmao.

    I just wish they would've placed it somewhere where you come more often. I usually find myself forgetting about the Trick House after doing one puzzle, which is a shame, because it can be a pretty good place to grind a couple of levels. I really like the puzzles and everything, it's just a good little thing they added in for us, which I greatly appreciate. I haven't played through AS enough to know all the puzzles and prizes quite yet, but I hope it won't disappoint!

    This guy. I have mixed thoughts about this place. It's pretty cool and challenging but at the same time one of his puzzles, the one with the spinning tiles is almost impossible for me to complete without looking up a guide online. It may be simple to others but I spent a long while in there with barely any progress!

    I'll be honest; I wasn't as interested in the Trick House this time around. I only completed it because I felt an obligation to; as I had done so in the past, in Pokémon Emerald.

    Really, the only legitimately difficult one was the arrow puzzle, the only one I found interesting. All the others were either too easy or too frustrating (*Cough cough* Quiz Puzzle.)
    There was lots of trial and error going on in there...

    After a couple minutes though, I made it through, and that's the end of that.

    Still though, happy that I got the tent.

    I forgot to bring a Pokémon with Cut, so I didn't really do it. Pretty short story, huh.

    I ignored the Trick House just like how I used to ignore it back in Generation 3. It didn't really appeal to me and I thought that it was a waste of my precious time.

    I was a little disappointed that we had less puzzles than were originally in R/S/E but the last one in OR/AS absolutely destroyed my brain. The moment I walked through the door and saw the mass amount of arrow tiles I just knew it wasn't something I'd be doing on my own.. aha. D': And so video guides were consulted! In general I found the last few puzzles in the remakes more difficult than all of the ones we had gotten originally and the remixed music is as amazing as I'd hoped it would be.

    So yes, overall I was fond of this place and had a good time going through it, but despite that the original Trick House will always be my favorite. n~n The Trick Master himself is crazy fun but it would've been awesome if he had a bigger role and perhaps his own overworld 3D model.

    Good concept, but they made it even easier than the original games. I also felt there was a shortage of trick rooms in the remakes. Some extra trick rooms in the post-game would've been nice.

    Eh to be honest I don't really care much for the Trick House and I actually still need to clear despite having reached the post-game stuff ages ago. Is just not for me but the few tricks I've seen seemed true to the originals at least.

    I've always liked the Trick House, although I haven't gone through all of the puzzles yet in ORAS. I always had a lot of trouble with some of the later puzzles in RSE, so here's hoping I don't get stuck on them like I did back then!

    I'm the kind of person who sees a puzzle and stops and absolutely has to solve it, so I really liked it. Trick Master was just a little bit creepy though, in my opinion. I absolutely HATED the warp panel puzzle. I kept coming back to the entrance and I'm just thinking, 'just show me the damn scroll!' the entire time.

    By the way, did anyone else notice the Trick House was bigger on the inside?
