Bootleggers, La Cosa Nostra, federal agents and high-rank DC politicians, mixed in a strong cocktail of fun and intellectual challenge. This is the year 1933, under mysterious circumstances, you are transferred to a secret speakeasy, back in the waning days of Prohibition.Tucked away in a remote alleyway, behind an unmarked door and camouflaged with a fancy gallery space, there is an urban heaven for booze aficionados... Just a few people know about this gloomy place, even fewer know about the dark secrets its walls guard: this speakeasy is the regular meeting place of the most powerful and feared Mafia family of DC, the Cottone clan. Prominent politicians at both state and federal level have been infiltrated by this dangerous group of criminals. But you have a secret too. You are a team of agents, hired by a high-rank politician to discover and retrieve documents about his connections to the Mafia, the notorious ‘Cosa Nostra’. Once inside, you will not have the time to sit back in one of those comfy leather armchairs and let some of the savviest bartenders read your mind. You need to read theirs. No-one can promise the successful outcome of your dangerous mission, but fortunately, you have gotten access to several highly encrypted clues. Being so well hidden, there are, of course, problems. So you need to be smart and cautious. Very, very cautious. Our Cosa Nostra escape room, also known as ‘Our Thing’ has a thrilling story, original enigmas and a rich role play with many plot twists that will make you live a unique adrenaline-fuelled experience.

I am lukewarm here. My group of four (including two novices) had fun, primarily because the theming was strong and escape rooms are inherently fun. In a linear room with fiddly locks, we often had everybody standing around while one person tried several times to enter a code. (This also made it hard to notice when our poor math had gotten us the wrong code.) Relatively few deductions or aha moments, though the end of the room was stronger than the beginning so we went out riding a high.

Great theming, but there was too much handholding with puzzles and a very linear path through the room. Lots of the antique locks were finnicky and needed entire explainer sheets on how to use the hardware, which broke immersion more than if a standard lock had been used.

“A vibrant room that captures the 1930’s about as well as I imagine any escape room ever will.“
