The Trick House is located on Route 110 in Hoenn. It is owned by the Trick Master, who poses puzzling challenges to travelers. Those who wish to play his game must find their way through a mazelike puzzle at the back of his house. If they are successful, they will be rewarded.
Description
The puzzles for Trick House are three-part. First, the Trick Master is hiding somewhere in the first room of the house. The first few times the player enters the house, an exclamation mark identifies the Trick Master right away, but in later challenges the player must find him without any help.
Once the Trick Master is found, the player may enter the larger rear room through a passageway hidden behind the scroll on the wall. The rooms consist of some sort of maze with a gimmick to each of them, and each room also has items and trainers. The player must navigate through the maze to a second scroll, where they will obtain a secret code. Finally, the player must find the door to the Trick Master's room and write the code on it to gain access. Upon being found, the Trick Master will reward the player, and the player may take a shortcut passage out of the Trick House.
While the rooms in Trick House use mostly the same gimmicks in Pokémon Emerald as were used in Ruby and Sapphire, the layouts of the rooms are each changed slightly. Trainers, items and the password scrolls are in different locations, and the maze's course changes as well. However, it is only their locations that differ, the items and trainers in each room are the same in all versions. Between Ruby and Sapphire, and Emerald, the Trick Master's hiding spots in the first room also change.
The number of puzzles available is proportional to the number of Gym Badges earned. By the time the player first arrives at the Trick House, he or she will be able to play the first and second puzzles. As the player defeats more Gym Leaders, more puzzles can be challenged. Each one, however, is only available once and they must be completed in order.
After completing the final puzzle in Pokémon Emerald, players may choose between either tent, but may only take one.

Puzzle 3
The third puzzle is a room full of alternating red and blue doors. Stepping on a switch opens all red doors and closes all blue doors, and stepping on a switch again will open all blue doors and close all red doors. The entrance to the room, and some switches, are covered by rocks that can be shattered with Rock Smash.

Puzzle 7
The seventh room is filled with spinners similar to Mossdeep Gym. The player must navigate the maze of spinners and pull switches to change their directions to advance through the room. In Pokémon Emerald, the room is instead full of trainers standing on spinners that rotate when switches are triggered, due to Mossdeep Gym being redesigned for Emerald.

Puzzle 8
The eight room is divided into two areas, an upper and lower area. Both are made up primarily of polished floors lined with pots. Stepping on the polished floor will send the playing sliding across it until they hit an obstacle. The player must navigate their way across both floors to conquer Trick Master's final challenge.
