Speakeasy Escape Game Theme

It’s the roaring twenties! People are driving cars, talking on telephones, and going to the movies. But unfortunately, it’s also Prohibition and most of those people would trade all of that “progress” for a beer. In fact, the only place to get a drink is at a mob-run Speakeasy.

When you go for a taste of the forbidden sauce, things get a bit rowdy and the bartender locks you in so the boss can sort out the mess. You overhear that the boss will be back in an hour. While the night may have started out as the “bee’s knees”, it will be your knees if you can’t escape!

Diner Escape Game Theme

After a wild night at a mob bar a few decades ago, you took up with the wrong crowd and now you find yourself about to rob the local diner. This isn’t your first gig and you’re hoping it won’t be your last.

The boys didn’t give much detail, but said the prep work is all set; just be in and out in less than an hour. If you can pull it off, you’ll be in the “Money Honey”. On the other hand, if you mess this one up, you’ll be writing your own version of “Jailhouse Rock”, ya dig?
