It's July 1921, a year and a half into Prohibition and the legal closing of your beloved jazz club, The Green Mill, once known as the crown jewel of Chicago's nightlife. It also became Al Capone's favorite spot to hang out with his South side crew. You tried to make a go of it with bootlegged liquor supplied by Capone, but he became greedy, pushing you out with muscle, guns, and paying off the law. Now, he's using your beloved lounge for gambling and stashing illegal cash and the finest bootleg liquor in the city. But tonight, the tables turn; you have a plan. You've teamed up with your old pal Bugs Moran and his North side crew promising them a piece of the action. Bugs knows a dame living next door to the club who swears there's a secret entrance and the bartender is on his payroll. He's also paid off two of Capone's thugs and a couple of coppers. Everything is coming together! While the coppers disappear and the thugs are out muscling another bar owner, you and the crew will have one hour to sneak into the club, find the scratch and Capone's private hooch. The dame and the bartender have left cryptic clues for you to find the entrance and locate the goods. Keep your head cool, your story straight, and your gumption steady. You've got sixty minutes to outsmart the most feared gangster in history. This isn't just a game - it's a comeback!

Illogical and broken puzzles, an entire room with no puzzles at all, and the jankiest design execution I have ever seen. And this is the company's newest room, replacing a prior Mafia game which was pretty decent, so what happened? The QC is shocking, and deteriorating with each game. The owners clearly don't care much about escape rooms or enthusiasts. Avoid this one...

Not kidding when I say the worst I've ever seen. Panels of wall paper were glued on top of each other and over a doorway... and then not trimmed, so panels are just hanging over the threshold. A USB cable is hanging out of a shelf (not in game), and wires are everywhere. It's almost a parody...

Customer service

GM was really rude. She was clearly in a bad mood and was snapping at everyone - including other groups. I blame management and poor training. The guy who jumped in to GM halfway throufh was nice but didn't understand escape rooms...
