Prohibition Ransom

Fun theme, multiple puzzles going on at the same time which provides a little challenge. Definitely a room for beginners that are trying out escape rooms for the first time.

Such a fun room! Lots of puzzles occur at once meaning you have to separate what you have and what you want. An incredibly immersive room with a great story

The weaker game (in my opinion) at Boss Play. Pretty standard prohibition room. Very linear for the most part. We got stuck on one searching puzzle near the beginning that soured the mood for the rest of the game (We thought we were breaking the set, but it turns out that is what we were supposed to do)

Loved our game master. She was so fun and interactive and tried to let us figure things out, even when we asked for hints.

Nice use of a smaller space. Great date just as it isn’t a huge room. Challenging puzzles and great game masters.

The room was good. However my group had a rather awkward experience with the staff here. I don’t even know if it was their fault or something the owners have instructed their staff to do. We arrived to our booking and were told we had to wait for another group to arrive (a group doing the other room that we were not in) before we could start. They wanted to do this so they could explain all the rules to us at once and not have to repeat themselves. This other group however was about 25-30 minutes late, forcing us to sit in the lobby and wait for them to show up so WE could get started. This caused us to start our game 30 minutes later than it was scheduled for. Afterwards, when we wanted a picture, we were escorted into the lobby and told “there is no time for a group photo” as if it was OUR fault. Forcing a group of people to wait for complete strangers to arrived is weird on its own, but because of their choice to do this we were not even able to take a photo in the room afterwards. Really horrible service.

This is an older game but it reminds me of why I fell in love with escape rooms. Sometimes, I want to open a good old fashioned lock while I pretend to be at a 1920s speakeasy. It’s just a lot of fun! Is this the most high tech mind blowing game? No. But it isn’t trying to be. It’s a nice classic game that stands the test of time.

Fun room. Fun elements. Puzzles fit the theme for the most part. I enjoyed the time period immersion. There were only a couple things out of place, like a modern directional lock, which was not found in the 1920s. But all in all a fun 1920s themed room. Great into!

Game master did well staying in character and making you feel like you are part of the story. Cool puzzles, nothing too hard but makes you have to pay attention to detail
