🗣️ FATHOM por Roboto Octopodo: Opiniones
Experiencia fantástica: This was an amazing experience cant wait to go back.
Experiencia fantástica: I had an amazing experience at FATHOM!!
Experiencia fantástica: 5/5 if you are: • a child • neuro-divergent • on the spectrum • tripping As a sober adult, I found it wasn't very entertaining. It was like a random collection of burning man art fails with a particularly Portland crunchy budget vibe. It was kinda like a budget, kid version.
We appreciate you taking the time to support us and share your experience. Thanks for leaving us a thoughtful review!
Experiencia fantástica: I brought my grandkids to this fascinating adventure. We enjoyed it all, and had so much fun doing the scavenger hunt as well. We are eagerly awaiting the next installment, and will be first in line!
Thanks for swimming by (and for bringing the grandkids)! We'll see you on the next round!
Experiencia fantástica: My one year old had such a good time here. What a fun place! So sad to hear it's closing. Definitely check it out if you can.
Experiencia fantástica: It was awesome. So much fun 10 out of 10
Experiencia fantástica: Very unique experience, many nooks and crannies packed with creative playfulness and eye-popping color. My favorite installation was the push button light up dancing furry whale! Also the hall of lights, which was greatly enhanced by the provided glasses. We can't wait for the next iteration!
Experiencia positiva: Update: @Fathom, does the content change during adult hours or just that there aren't children there? My comment was about the lack of plot beyond a flimsy premise and complexity to discovering secrets or playing with the space. The absence of children doesn't change any of that. FATHOM was an okay experience. The space and art were well done and there were many cool parts. Overall it was a good value for the money, however having been, I wouldn't go without bringing children, as the lack of complexity of the puzzles, world building or coherent and continuous plot didn't feel made for adults. Overall, it was nice that it gets people downtown where they'll probably stop at a few more businesses.
Thanks for supporting local artists by coming to FATHOM and leaving us a review. We invite you to return on Friday and Saturday evenings (16+ after 7pm).
Experiencia positiva: Needs AC, but a fun experience for adults and kids alike
Thanks for supporting us and for your feedback!
Experiencia fantástica: What a fun afternoon trip! My partner and I spent a few hours here soaking up all the fun art and interactive exhibits, and there’s definitely lots to enjoy for adults and kids alike. A huge variety of installations and fun little surprises everywhere. Hoping a new experience follows!
Thank you so much for this five star review. We’re also excited for our future portals!
Experiencia fantástica: Super fun experience! lots of photo opportunities and liked the puzzle!
Thanks for swimming by and for the five star review!
Experiencia positiva: Fathom was a super fun event to check out! It was wonderful to get free admission for my birthday and the missions were entertaining.
We appreciate the kind review.
Experiencia fantástica: This was a great way to celebrate my 49th birthday! I love code solving puzzles and scavenger hunts. Both were easy enough that we could get them done before my son decided he was ready to leave - his max time somewhere is usually 30mins we were here for an hour. The space is beautiful and feels magical. Public parking in the same building with a $5 weekend special. After we walked to Ben and Jerry's! I heard there is an afterhours adult only option. Not sure what that offers.
Thanks for coming by and spending your 49th birthday with us! We’re glad the crew had fun and that we captivated the kiddo. For a different experience we do offer admission for ages 16 and up only on Friday and Saturday nights, swing on through again another time!
Experiencia fantástica: It was awesome. I couldn't quite tell from the website but it definitely feels like a kid oriented activity, which is what I was looking for. As a parent I had a lot of fun watching my kids enjoy the art and helping them figure out the little mysteries. As an artist I was blown away by the craftsmanship of the space and the creativity of the world they made. Kids will love it, I think a lot of adults will enjoy it in same way the kids do, and if you're an art lover it's definitely worth a visit. I bought tickets online and got a discount for being on SNAP, which is awesome.
Thanks for coming by and for the five star review! We’re proud to offer SNAP discounts.
Experiencia fantástica: So much fun! Highly recommend going here :)
On behalf of the entire crew, thanks for the five star review!
Experiencia fantástica: We were a group of four adults and it was a fun and playful experience. We enjoyed seeing the creative multi media installations. There’s a lot to explore and the treasure hunt and puzzle game that they provide helps you to check out every nook and cranny. I appreciated that the staff were low-key in the background, available if you needed them but out of the way if you didn’t. Check it out while it’s still there.
Thank you for the five star review and for the shout out for our awesome staff! We let the researchers know that their scientific style is appreciated.
Experiencia fantástica: Super, over-the-top cool mystery adventure for families, couples, groups...something for everyone. The staff were in character and made the scientific hunt even more engaging
Experiencia positiva: was super cool, but a little more on the kid activity side. artwork was amazing but it was a little crowded for the space. super cool, maybe if they had some sort of adult only night it could be more enjoyable for some :)
Thanks for coming through! FATHOM is proud to offer dedicated times each Friday and Saturday night for explorers 16+.
Experiencia fantástica: Really awesome and fun. Cute/cool immersion. Better experience than hopscotch. Imo Trying to go back with family before it leaves
Experiencia fantástica: SO fun, and weird. Quirky oceanic art and everything is interactive! Usually scared to touch and walk around art but they encourage you to explore and interact with everything. Super nice people and colorful lights! Slimy baby is my favorite.
Our research team has discovered that things inside of FATHOM indeed are delightful to touch. Thanks for coming by and we'll see you in the next portal!
Experiencia fantástica: Fun activity especially on a rainy day. Not comparable to hopscotch (which is way better for adults in my opinion.) Definitely better for children. If you’re an adult I highly suggest taking an edible. The glasses definitely make things more fun. I went through the whole thing in 25 minutes. It was fun and enjoyable.
Thanks for stopping by and for your review! We recommend swinging by during our 16+ hours each Friday and Saturday. Most guests spend around 45 to 90 minutes here, and there’s always more secrets to discover!
Experiencia fantástica: This is a fun immersive art experience where they give you a little bit of direction in the beginning and a series of tasks you can complete with your kids for extra fun. Definitely bring the family. This is not a solo trip. It’s very friendly for little kids. The staff that works there is great! They really help you get the most out of the experience.
Thanks for the detailed review and great photos, including our rarely-captured stencil mural! We appreciate your visiting us and sharing your experience.
Experiencia fantástica: Phenomenal, from the beginning to the end an experience that caters to the adventurous and curious!
Thanks, we appreciate your kind comments! Hope to see you again soon.
Experiencia fantástica: If you've ever been to Meow Wolf, this feels like a mix of a smaller version of that but also an escape room with zero pressure? So much fun to interact with art!
Thanks for coming by and leaving a five-star review!
Experiencia fantástica: what a fantastic, whimsical experience!! as a native, this is what I want portland to be. I've been putting off going 1.) because of the limited hours (understandable, I just work retail lol) but 2.) I was scared this would be tiny/gimmicky/soulless in a corporate influencer photobooth way ,, but I was so wrong! glad we finally lucked out on time off to check it out. everything (besides the AI sea monster clips on one of the ship windows ) feels so homemade and full of love. in a time where being an artist couldn't be less valued, it's really invigorating to see so many hands tinkering away at passion projects in spite of it all. very inspiring to see so many affordable/SCRAP-esque materials at play. so many ideas and possibilities to take home into my own work. at the moment, I find it exceedingly rare to feel this sort of hope and joy for both creatives and our city. thank you all for doing what you do also - the big puzzle was unexpectedly a little tricky for us two adults !!
Thanks for coming out and for recognizing our local creations. We're really proud of the large-scale upcycling we were able to do by working with local vendors. Science can take many forms!
Experiencia fantástica: Very cool interactive art exhibit/treasure hunt/puzzle room.
We appreciate the five star review. Come back again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: My son and I had so much fun visiting. Very inspiring art and we spent a good amount of time!
Thank you for visiting! We're glad you and your son had a blast and hope to see y'all again soon.
Experiencia fantástica: An excellent immersive art installation with great puzzles to solve. Highly suggested to get there earlier and have amble time to solve the puzzles and to explore the fun aspects of this installation. Use the scientist to help you out. This is an ever evolving installation and it will be fun to go back to.
We appreciate the five star review and pro tips about our scientists. Even in the past week since you've been by, it seems like a dozen new anomalies just popped up! Hope to see you again soon.
Experiencia fantástica: Whoever made the Outer Wilds reference in the exhibit you know who you are. You're awesome.
Possible Deep Cut Spotted! We've recording your eagle-eyed observation and passing it on to the Research Team (Arts Division/Stellar Division) for further analysis and open-world exploration.
Experiencia fantástica: We spent a wonderful afternoon as guest researchers at Fathom, exploring Portland oddities. Fathom was interesting and fun to wander through. We had a mixed-age group including children and adults. Everyone had a unique and amazing time. The art and installations plus the deeper story elements I highly recommend stopping by and researching yourself! They offer free admission within 7 days of your birthday. Tickets are easily purchased in advance with staggering arrival so there is no wait at the door. There are plenty of nearby parking garages with affordable parking but you could also take the Max. I was in awe of the work and ingenuity of these artists.
FATHOM researchers appreciate your detailed and thoughtful review of your visit. Thank you for providing thorough reportage! We hope to be part of future adventures for you and your entire crew.
Experiencia fantástica: This was a fun night! I went with a couple of girlfriends one evening, but purposefully did not look at too many pictures or reviews because I wanted to be surprised. I was not disappointed! It’s visually stunning and fully immersive - there is so much to look at and explore. The scavenger hunt was tricky, but we worked it out with some clues from one of the cast members. This is fun for all ages, and be ready to spend about 2 hours to experience everything. Be aware that younger children may be creeped out by some of the art, ect. I liked that it was set up like we were on a mission, but that we could do as little or as much as we wanted to with the puzzles and whatnot. Highly recommend!
We appreciate your five star review and your adherence to keeping the secrets! We'll pass the shout out on our cast members on to the crew. Thanks for coming out and supporting our experiment, hope to see you again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: Place is great we went with my girlfriend's daughter but plan on going back on the adults only time to enjoy the psychedelic type features a little differently.
Thanks for coming out and sharing your experience! Come on back for some of our private events or our dedicated ages 16+ hours each Friday and Saturday after 7pm!
Experiencia fantástica: If you are a lover of art and the efforts that go into all the designing and installation of such, you will definitely appreciate Fathom. Yes, agreed, it's a short stay IF you do not look at details, or if you do not do the scavenger hunt. HOWEVER, if you do participate, you could spend up to 1.5-2 hours there. I took myself and my 3 kids. 14, 10 and 10 and they loved it. No, this is not Hopscotch, so please lower your expectations, but do appreciate the art and the efforts to display this fun and visually creative theme.
We're glad to hear that you and the kiddos had a blast! All of the artists (er, scientists) of FATHOM put care and love into the experience and we're always pleased when it shows.
Experiencia fantástica: FATHOM by Roboto Octopodo is an undersea dream! I recently went to their Treasure Your Booty class, a collaboration with Booty Luv® Fitness (yes, the name alone sold me), and it was everything I hoped for. Imagine a creative playground under the sea, where you’re surrounded by glowing jellyfish, neon coral reefs, and vibes that make you feel like a mermaid. If you’re looking for something whimsical, interactive, and wildly creative, this is it. 10/10 recommend diving in. ✨
We give your review five thumbs up! Our pals at Booty Luv did an incredible job bringing new sailors into our bay. Come back again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: The scavenger hunt and deciphering the clues is SO fun and all the art and decorations are very neat. Highly recommend!!!!
It's kind of you to share such a great review! We hope to see you again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: My daughter and I went on Sunday early evening and had the best time. Was such a great way to spend time together exploring, observing and solving. The staff was so helpful and so fun to interact with and help solve all of the different phases of the puzzle. Honestly the staff is what made the whole experience phenomenal!! We’ve recommended this to so many friends after going. I hope they make more installations in the future!! It’s such a great way to feature so many local artists and makers.
It's fintastic to hear that the staff treated you right on your visit to FATHOM! Please stop by again soon as we're always discovering new anomalies.
Experiencia fantástica: Very cool immersive art installation. So many cool art mediums, and u can see so many cool styles and inspired pieces and minds come together. Great to take kids to. It was a lovely sensory stimulation with all the diffrent textures and visuals and noise/music. Cool interactive pieces as well and, little scavenger hunt. Great job to the artists!
Thank you for visiting and reporting back! We're glad you had a blast.
Experiencia fantástica: One of my favorite things about Portland is all the wonderful creativity from its inhabitants. When you find a way to immerse yourself in a focal point of creativity, your imagination grows. This attraction is worthy of your time, your support and admiration. Please go check this out!
Thanks for sharing your kind compliments and pics of our experience! We appreciate you; come back again soon and see what strangeness has occurred!
Experiencia fantástica: The kids (teens/preteens) had a blast solving everything and exploring the interactive pieces. It was a unique experience
Thank you for sharing about your time at FATHOM! Come back again soon and see what's new in the anomaly!
Experiencia fantástica: came for the psychedelic art and puzzles, stayed for the slimy babies. 14/10 Marx
Slimy Baby has blessed you with the radiance you deserve! Bask in her parthenogenetic glory as her echoing rattles fill your dreams. Come back again soon, there's always more to never unsee!
Experiencia fantástica: So fun! My eight and four year old were fully engrossed for over an hour and a half and I had to drag them out of there. Really loved the scavenger hunt!
We appreciate the five star review and your stop at our mermaid station. Come back again soon and see what's new!
Experiencia fantástica: I enjoyed my experience a lot! I went for my birthday, over the weekend. It was immersive, and well made. It wasn't just a small room, there was a lot to see and explore. The details were incredible! This would be enjoyable for young kids who just want to run around and look, and adults who have a better appreciation for solving puzzles and what it takes to craft an art experience like this. Not too expensive, well worth the price of tickets. Staff are friendly and helpful, and add to the experience. The sensory experience was nice for me- dim, moody lights. Some pulsing, or moving lights. Lots of different sounds to listen to in different areas. Not extremely loud for me. Overall, a wonderful fun time!!
It's delightful to learn that our ambience was your ideal birthday treat! Thank you for coming out and being part of our coral.
Experiencia fantástica: A fun way to have a multi-aged outing. It incorporated art with a scavenger hunt. We spent two hours there which was perfect. Staff was friendly and helpful as were other visitors. We opted for street parking which seemed safe in the area this is located.
Thank you for the kind five star review! We're glad that the two hours swam by as you ventured into our depths, and our staff is pleased to learn that they helped you!
Experiencia fantástica: Fun beyond my expectations but a very intense sensory experience! Would not reccomend going in unprepared if you are sensitive to lights. My group of three had a very postive visit during their mask required hours and were very impressed how much detail was throughout every area. I have a migrane disorder and am sensitive to lights, especially flashing/strobbing lights. Staff were receptive to my access questions and described how to avoid the most intense area. We were given novelty glasses to wear, I was unable to wear them at any point, but one of our party said they were enjoyable as an added layer. I brought sunglasses just in case, which were ultimately not needed as I could orient away from flashing lights once all the way inside. The entry tunnel was a mild strobing effect, it is maybe 6 ft and then you're inside the exhibit. The intense area was easy to avoid by not going down a side passageway, and the other 90% of the space was spacious and easy to navigate. I could put my manual wheelchair right up to most everything and really enjoyed a lot of the kid height art. Highly reccomend for sensory seekers to light and touch.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this observant review!
It's vital that this strange ripple we're stewarding is kept accessible for as many people as possible. While we center that by providing sensory headphone check-outs and dedicated masked hours, research feedback about our light and touch experience is equally invaluable.
Your review was shared with our research team and your kind words passed along to the crew. We warmly invite you to come back to FATHOM again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: Like an escape room within an art exhibit. So much detail! So fun!!
We love escape rooms, art exhibits, and five star reviews from fans. Thanks for hitting all the marks. Come back again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: This is such a fun, interactive art installation. We had so much fun finding all the different hidden scenes and solving the puzzle! I can’t wait to see what they become. ♥️
Thank you so much for coming out and supporting us with this five star review!
Experiencia positiva: This was fun! I would say it's a bit underwhelming only because I just went through Meow Wolf's Omega Mart recently. BUT! That does not mean this is any less of an experience. It was charming, and the staff was wonderful. The interaction with the exhibit overall was fun, I wouldn't mind doing another one when it comes back.
Thanks for sharing your experience with others! We're proud to be in the same class as our friends at Meow Wolf and appreciate your taking the time to write us a review!
Experiencia positiva: I enjoyed the scavenger hunt, and experiencing different art.
Thanks for leaving us a review and sharing some photos!
Experiencia fantástica: We loved visiting Fathom! Definitely go check out the portal while it’s open!
Thanks for your supportive five star review!
Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic local spot for a young teen's birthday party! One is never too old for a scavenger hunt and immersive art. We loved it! Great for home school adventures too.
Thanks for the positive five star review! It means a lot that our work is something appreciated by explorers of every age.
Experiencia fantástica: Really enjoyed this experience! Was busy but not too crowded on a Sunday afternoon. Glad to see so many people of all ages. You can buzz through and enjoy the lights and art, or linger and work through the scavenger hunt / puzzle which was just enough to make you think but not something to get frustrated with.
Thanks for the five star review! We're glad that FATHOM's mysteries have been busily entrancing explorers of all ages. Come back again soon, as we're always adding more!
Experiencia positiva: Tried to order tickets last night. I tried 4 times because each time I did it would go to this page that basically said they were unable to process at the time. After the 4th time I wanted to check my banking account to make sure nothing was being charged to my card but sure enough there are 4 44$ pending transactions! I'm not rich. I'm living paycheck to paycheck so for this to happen really effects my lively hood. That's my living money. Had to call the bank to dispute the claims and said could take up to 10 business days. No way to actually get a hold of anyone here. Once this is figured out I will not give my business to this place. Ruined my girlfriend's birthday. I was just trying to take her out to do something fun. Edit: they took care of the problem promptly and offered free tickets for the inconvenience.
We’re sad to hear that you had trouble purchasing tickets, an unfortunate experience leading to this review. The issue you mentioned was due to our third-party ticket provider who has solved the issue moving forward.
We’re grateful that we were able to you allowed us to contact you promptly after we received your email to make things right, and happy that you enjoyed the tour with your friends.
If there’s anything else we can do, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Experiencia positiva: Fun place pretty expensive for the things it has not many things for adults to enjoy but it's cool and nice to try
Thanks for stopping by and writing a review!
Many adults love FATHOM, which is why each Friday and Saturday are reserved for those ages 16 and up. We're glad you thought it was cool and nice!
Experiencia fantástica: My mom is almost 60 and I'm 20, we both could've spent half the day here! We were walking around and solving three rounds of puzzles/clues for almost 5 hours. There was so much detail and many interactive displays to check out, and we both bought marxes at the gift shop after. So much fun, appreciate all the work that goes into these events, and will 100% come back in the future!
We're always thrilled to hear about Marxes making it all the way home; they're the eyeball-iest little passengers out there! Thanks for visiting and we'll see you again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: This was so fun and interactive! The staff was very kind. My son loved it! We are visiting from out of town so this is a great place to explore! Thank you!
Your kind words are like a beacon in the deep! Thank you for sharing your positive experience. We hope you visit FATHOM again on your next journey to Portland!
Experiencia fantástica: Fathom is one of the most unique interactive art exhibits I have ever been to! Perfect for date night, time with friends or family, and kids will love it too! I would highly recommend to anyone living in OR visiting Portland...is it truly one of a kind!
Your five star review means a lot to us; we try to make resonant art for Portlander and tourists alike. Thanks again!
Experiencia fantástica: I can’t even remember how I found out about this place. It might’ve been through the Portland winter light festival. Anyway, I had a girlfriend visiting and we thought this would be a fun thing to do and if you really want to enjoy this, I would say don’t ruin it and look at the pictures, go there completely blind. The place is not that big but the art is really cool and you can find a lot of minute details of like little scenes and fun things that are just super cool and unique and creative. Also, all the people that work there are super into playing their roles and it really adds to the fun of it. We didn’t solve the puzzles, but there were a lot of people who seemed like they were really enjoying that aspect of the treasure hunt and decoding the symbols and I think I would really like to go back and try to approach it from that perspective, I think that would be really cool. Anyway enjoy this place while lasts and support local artists!!!!
We're glad your spontaneous visit turned out to be so memorable! All of our core research team pride themselves on guiding guests through all seven seas. We're glad you had fun and hope you join us again!
Experiencia fantástica: This was a wonderful, weird, and a lot of fun. We had such a good time with the scavenger hunt, it made for a good way to really look at all the details. So many good buttons to push and levers to pull!
Pull ALL the levers! We're glad you had fun and thanks for the five star review!
Experiencia fantástica: So well done and fun. There are three levels of puzzles and codes to figure out. Definitely a must see.
Thank you for your thoughtful words! We take pride in designing memorable puzzles. We appreciate your five fin review!
Experiencia fantástica: FATHOM was so much fun! We showed up on a whim on a Sunday afternoon, after getting turned away from that other “immersive art experience” as we hadn’t purchased tickets in advance. We waited less than five minutes in the cozy lobby before heading into the depths. My puzzle-loving husband and I had a great time piecing together the lore and secrets, and our toddler had a blast with all the exciting colors, lights, textures and sounds. Highly recommend!
Hooray! We're pleased to hear that the lore of FATHOM kept y'all engaged on a Sunday afternoon! We hope to see you again soon as things move around constantly.
Experiencia fantástica: This place was SO incredible. Fun for the whole family. The glasses made everything ten times better. Absolutely would visit again. Worth the 1.5 hour drive by far.
It's a huge compliment to know we were worth the 1.5 hour drive! We hope to greet your whole family again soon.
Experiencia fantástica: Fathom was sooo cool! I went in pretty blind and didn't know what to expect but had SO MUCH FUN! Such a cute date! It was so trippyyyy
Not only are we an interdimensional wormhole, we're a cute date spot too! Thanks for the five stars!
Experiencia fantástica: Me and my 7 year old had a really great time. Theres so much to look at and explore and if you want to really dive in, the codes and scavenger hunt are really fun. Even without those, its a lovely experience just to see the artwork and cool activities.
We’re properly pleased that you took the plunge into our world! It’s amazing to hear that you had a great experience. Come back anytime for another deep-sea adventure!
Experiencia fantástica: This was so fun and you can tell how much work went into not only doing all the design work, but putting together the clues for the scavenger hunt. I love that a lot of the decor is upcycled too! I went for a friend's birthday, which happened to be a few days after mine, and had a great time. I definitely think everyone should experience it.
Thanks for making FATHOM the site of your double birthday! We appreciate the shout-out to our upcycled supplies. Come back again soon as items appear mysteriously and without warning!
Experiencia fantástica: So fun and creative. The scavenger hunt is great, you really have to search and think pretty hard to find the answers, which was really fun for us. The lights and art are beautiful and also silly. Another thing that was off the charts amazing was the staff. They are so helpful in general, but one staff member did a great kindness for me. I have sensory issues and I got overwhelmed by the noise. I was walking around plugging my ears and he noticed. He offered me noise cancelling headphones. This seemingly small thing is really so important for people with disabilities. I don't remember his name but if you see this thank you so much!
Your review warmed the cockles of our fishy hearts! We know exactly which scientist offered you the headphones and upon receipt of this review, his quick wit in that instance was celebrated by all. We truly appreciate your calling out a fine experience at FATHOM.
Please come by again soon as our whale has been remedied!
Experiencia fantástica: Very interesting art styles! My kiddo loved it.
A five star review from you and your kiddo is a ten star review for us all!
Experiencia fantástica: Fun, collaborative, family friendly art pop up. So cool!
Thanks for the five star review. We hope to see you and your family again soon!
Experiencia positiva: It is ok. It's not like the much more tactile Teamlab exhibits but it is great for kids. I enjoyed it myself but my companions did less. It's a worthy exploration if you happened to have consumed an edible. I wished I had.
Thanks for your kind review!
Experiencia fantástica: Fun scavenger hunt that's interactive. The kiddos loved it and it was pretty fun for all of us. Very creative art and structures
Thank you for taking such great photos of our scientific underwater realm! We appreciate your taking the time to visit and report back.
Experiencia fantástica: Cool!
We love these glasses photos + the fact that you took a moment to leave us a five star review. Thank you!
Experiencia fantástica: It's so rad how Portland has tapped into the current experiential art wave. Where Hopscotch is special and fun, Fathom brings a whole other side to what this kind of art experience can be. Each of the installations of Fathom feel handcrafted, heartfelt, & labored on by intricate, complex, and special beings. The installation feels like intergalactic folk art that's been elevated and given a more appropriate platform. One where we can explore on our own, with our friends, with our hands, our eyes, our hearts, and imagination. You don't need to see the profiles or artist bios to know that they have acquired a diverse team of artists (deep sea scientists) bringing a myriad of stories, experiences, and aesthetics. Without a ton of contextual information the display reads as queer and inclusive to me. Somehow all of these many hands & projects come together in this fantastical curation. I love the experience of an installation that merits many walk throughs. Fathom is a delight for the ADHD brain that can follow whatever TF thread it wants and circle back at its own pace as many times as it needs. I'm glad the work keeps getting held over, it's a delight to reclaim a space that has become surrounded by way less interesting things. It's truly a treasure to get to experience. I'll be going back, I think this time with my polaroid...
Thank you for the kind and lovely review that helps us all of us feel seen! We've shared your words with the whole team for their enjoyment. We're looking forward to hosting you and your Polaroid again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: What a unique, fun and creative way to spend an evening or afternoon. It is truly a fun experience for all ages. Even my 83 year old mother loved her experience!
We've found 83 year old explorers to be among our most astute. Thanks for leaving us a five star review and for your contributions to our scientific furthering!
Experiencia fantástica: Such a great time!! We came here for my 40th a few weeks ago and came w our son and a few friends. My family *loves* puzzles and ciphers. Getting to go through the puzzles to get to the end surprise was absolutely worth it! The artists… sorry, the “scientists” who created this exhibit are amazing and so intensely creative. Not gonna lie, we snagged a few ideas for home decor while we were on the hunt. Do yourself a favor and get your buns down here. I can’t wait to take my mom when she comes into town, she’ll have a blast!
It means a lot that each member of your family had a blast. Our scientific conclusion is that you should come back again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: Really fun experience, enjoyed the various puzzles and scavenger hunts. Walked around for about 90 minutes, participants ranged from 6-8 years old up to 50-60ish. They give you light-distorting glasses (think 3D glasses, but prism style) when you walk in, just fyi for anyone that might not be able to do something like that.
It's fin-tastic to hear that FATHOM entertained your explorers at every age. Objects constantly reappear so we hope to see you again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: Do you like art or creativity or conservation or the mysteries of the ocean or colors or fun or games or if you're not an interesting person do you at least like keeping your children entertained for an hour or two so you can have a shred of peace? DO NOT MISS THIS ✨♀️✨
Our entire crew enjoyed reading your five star review! We're glad that you and any adjacent explorers to you (kiddos and otherwise) had a fun time. Thanks very much for all of the pictures!
Experiencia fantástica: It is awesome and I highly recommend going and checking this place out if you love art/interactive art. Having so many talented artists in one place where you can be for an hour and a half, enjoying yourself the whole time is really a spectacular experience! Lots of funny and fun stuff to look at, for kids and adults alike! Highly recommend - we've been there twice, we'll probably go once every 6 months or so ⭐️
We're grateful for your five star review! We're always busy here changing up our art... come back later this spring for a refreshed experience!
Experiencia fantástica: Awesome place to explore. Went for a date night here and had a blast. If you like art and sea life you’ll like it here.
FATHOM is proud to be rated 5 out of 5 fins for a great date night. Thanks for the review!
Experiencia fantástica: So fun! Get a reservation they book fast
Thanks for swinging by + providing us with a five fin review!
Experiencia fantástica: My boyfriend and I (28 & 29 y/o) had a great time here! They give you glasses at the beginning of the tour and it's imperative you wear these. We were so excited and impressed by the different perspectives, one of the tour guides overheard us & gave us a "secret" pair of glasses, which made the tour so much more mesmerizing. We spent about an hour 15 walking through, and still didn't find everything on the scavenger hunt sheet. The way the art and decor is designed is with the intentions of viewing it through these different lenses.
Hooray, we're delighted to hear y'all had a five star experience! Glasses performance can be notoriously variable in the depths of the ocean. We passed the praise for our intrepid staff along to the crew. Come back soon as we're changing things all of the time!
Experiencia negativa: fun! however, definitely not worth $22 per ticket.
Thanks for the thoughtful review. We're glad that you had fun!
Experiencia positiva: Fun experience for a date night. Bunch of cool stuff.
Thanks for supporting our scientific research and for leaving us a review!
Experiencia positiva: First of all, overall we had a blast. The downside was that the scavenger hunt was too hard, granted there were a few people around to help so we should have just asked sooner. But if we got some basic directions or pictures of what the fictional words were it would have made more sense. My kids (13, 10, and 8) got super frustrated and when I intervened it was almost impossible for me as an adult even after asking for help a few times. They should make it easier to give a sheet with directions to explain...decode the back side and it will tell you where to go for clues. Very fun overall, and the attention to small details was so fun!
Thanks for sharing your feedback about your experience!
Each sheet of paper with a secret code on it also states the location of the decoder on the top of the piece of paper. If that isn't enough information for you and your kids to decode the code, then next time you come in, just check in with one of the several employees wearing a white coat in order to get custom hints and information on solving the puzzles.
You can also come in on Friday or Saturday after 7pm for an experience for those aged 16 and up!
Experiencia positiva: It was ok, cute for little kids. Kinda like a low budget meow wolf type place. It gets super crowded for how small it is and folks let their little ones run wild….so you’ll hear nonstop crying from kids bouncing off something they bumped into. Not sure I’d say it’s worth 20 bucks a ticket, but it was good to get a free bday ticket to split the cost.
Hi, thanks so much for celebrating your birthday with us! It sounds like you haven't had a chance to visit us during our 16+ hours (Friday and Saturday after 7pm) so we hope to see you then!
Experiencia positiva: Quite fun as a group of silly adults, but definitely more kid oriented. If you're expecting something on par with Meow Wolf or TeamLabs, that's not the vibe here. Fathom is a whimsical, crafty, upcycled exhibit that feels very Portland. It's cute, and while I had fun with my friends, it might not be for everyone. Those looking to feel fully immersed in another world without effort need not attend. Those who enjoy appreciating the creativity of the builds, scavenger hunts, and silly little details will have a great time. 3/5 - solid fun for most audiences, but not a knock your socks off experience.
Thanks for your review and for the comparisons to our friends at Meow Wolf and Team Labs. We appreciate that you enjoyed the sustainable materials use of our immersive art experience. Hope you swim by again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: I brought my toddler and after getting scared walking in, she decided it was the coolest place ever. I wish we had time to go back up again before it gets taken down! Interactive with a scavenger hunt of sorts. Fantastic. Babies all the way to elderly and everyone in between were all having a great time while I was there. CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT THESE ARTISTS DO NEXT! If you want MeowWolf, go here and skip HopScotch.
We appreciate your five star review! Our research team is always standing by to introduce explorers of all ages and we're glad your toddler had an amazing time swimming through the anomaly.
Experiencia fantástica: Super fun. It's creative and imaginative place. There's fun riddles to solve throughout the place to solve if you want.
Thanks for uploading some incredible photos and giving us a five star review!
Experiencia fantástica: This was so cute and quirky. Not recommended for littles under 4yr, and I can see why 16yr and older after dark. We came with the niece and nephew ages 10 and 12. They had a blast! The textiles and details were outstanding I wouldn't have minded coming back as an adult date with um... some additives on deck.
Your five star review is much appreciated! We're glad that we're able to offer different times for very different types of trips and hope you swim back soon!
Experiencia positiva: It was worth seeing but the activities for exploring the area were kind of confusing since a lot of the scavenger hunt items did not have descriptions. The final activity involved a lot of work that did not particularly pay off. It was a cool space to explore though. I liked the whale.
Thanks for coming by and sharing your experience with us! For future reference, scientists in white coats are always roaming FATHOM to provide custom clues for the scavenger hunt. We hope to see you again soon!
Experiencia fantástica: It was a fun date night. Ask questions if you feel lost figuring things out
We agree that FATHOM is a five out of five star date night experience! Thanks for your review.
Experiencia fantástica: Fathom is a great place to spend a few hours, taking in all the sights, touching all the things, taking pictures and completing quests. My family of 4 (2 grown ups, 2 middle schoolers) very heartily enjoyed ourselves. There were so many details to check out. There was something for everyone and we are very glad we went.
Thank you for your five star review! We're glad your family had a great time exploring, discovering all the details, and completing the quests. The artists (er, researchers) of FATHOM endeavor to do something special for everyone. Hope to see you again for another adventure!!
Experiencia fantástica: Went with my kid and she loved it. She wasn't into the displays so much but she frickin' LOVED deciphering codes and figuring out the combination lock.
Thanks for leaving us a five star review! We're happy to know that your kiddo involved diving deep on some decoding!
Experiencia fantástica: Fathom is a SPECTACULAR experience!!! I have been gushing about it to friends, family, co-workers, even strangers! I spent almost two hours searching every nook and cranny for clues, hidden treasures, and easter eggs. Researchers (staff) were very kind, helpful but not overly so, and kept the theme running through their friendly yet silly attitudes. Small kiddos, families, couples, and elderly folks were all scrambling to find the secrets and clues. This experience is fun for little ones who can enjoy the bright lights and interactive pieces and for adults who can put their detective skills to work. The 5D glasses are very fun and even work outside of the exhibit! Overall, Fathom blew my expectations out of the water. I was immersed in this artistic, creative, and silly adventure. I can't wait to see what Roboto Octopodo does next! :)
Your five star review is very appreciated by our entire crew of researchers, who have been notified of this feedback. :) Thanks for taking the time to share a thoughtful write-up, and we're looking forward to creating more strange adventures for you and your friends!
Experiencia fantástica: So much fun and so creative. The glasses especially made the whole thing so trippy and cool. We couldn’t figure out the scavenger hunt, but had a great time trying nonetheless.
We appreciate your five star review! Many visitors have let us know that the full five dimensions are very helpful for their experience. Next time you visit, our researchers will be sure to assist your hunt!
Experiencia fantástica: Fathom was super fun. SO fun. I thought I basically knew what to expect, but Fathom really blew my expectations out of the water. I don't want to describe any of it, or post photos, because discovering it all is a big part of the fun. It's all really well done, and the artist's touch and vision really shines. All the staff were really fun to interact with, there to enhance the experience but never rushing or interfering with exploration. I loved it so much. Can;t wait to see what the artists do next.
FATHOM (and s.b.) loves you too! Thanks for the rave review.
Experiencia fantástica: There are very few activities both my 8 year old & 16 year old like doing together. This was a hit! Visually beautiful, and intellectually stimulating, we were all determined to find all the clues and complete all the side quests. It was not easy, but super fun. Highly recommend seeing this exhibit while it's still here. Thank you for adding such enjoyment to downtown again!
It's always a treat to learn that our underwater experiments can cross generational lines. Thanks for the rave review!
Experiencia fantástica: A fun and immersive installation that clearly had a LOT of labor (and love!) go into it from a huge team of contributors. Interactive, with a scavenger hunt to self-guide your experience (and helpful 'researcher' guides in case you get stuck). Plan to spend around 2 hours exploring, depending on how much of a completionist you are. This would be fun for kids, but there are also hours just for grown-ups (which is when I went).
Thanks for a flattering five fin review! We've found some of the most interesting discoveries occur during our 'grown-up' hours.
Experiencia fantástica: This exhibit is super fun and changes frequently enough to be worth more than one visit. My 8yo is especially enamored of exploring and solving the puzzles and mysteries. We've been several times and taken friends too, each time we've found something we didn't see before.
Thanks for the five star review! It's true, every time we open the door we're surprised by what's moved around. We appreciate you stopping by to help us catalog the whole thing.
Experiencia fantástica: Quirky and fun. Very good for elementary and teen kids with family. Lots of things to discover. The scavenger hunt was a bit!
Duck Drive activate! Thanks for uncovering the secrets of FATHOM & sharing your experience!
Experiencia fantástica: Super fun and eventful. Pretty art!!! Fun little scavenger hunt.
We're glad you enjoyed visiting FATHOM and helping us with the research! Thanks for sharing your documentation.
Experiencia fantástica: Great fun, I'm sure for all ages. Our group ranged from 16-45 years old and we had a wonderful time. The scavenger hunt made it like an escape room but without the stressful time limit. I loved seeing all the upcycled materials.
Thanks for the five star review! We're glad that the scavenger hunt was engaging for your entire crew; the up cycled materials and sustainability are aspects of FATHOM we're proud of.
