Storyline

You’ve just arrived in New York City, ready to party in the Big Apple. Unfortunately, it’s the height of Prohibition, and there’s not a drink to be found. 

You’ve heard whisperings of underground speakeasies where a thirsty soul can find a cup of hooch. Problem is, they’re all run by the Mafia—and you’re worried about tangling with dangerous outlaws just for a cocktail. But the thrill of the Big City pulls you in, and you can’t help but go searching for the most hoppin’ place in Midtown.
