Something different to get us out of the house. Some of the places we were led to are longer open though. Other than that there were no issues!
★★★★
couldn’t locate the thief clue and the uphill climbing at the end was tough LOL
★★★★★
This was a very fun murder mystery for my Wife and I. We enjoyed touring the city and even stopped to grab drinks and talk about the characters and who we thought was the culprit…what a fun date night it was for us!

One pass unlocks the whole group’s phones: the Duo covers 2, the Fellowship 5. From $8.40 per person, with no booking and no set time.
Two phones, two versions of the truth. Argue about the prime suspect over drinks afterwards.
A team of detectives, one accusation, live rankings. Cheaper than the escape room you couldn’t get a slot for, and the kids usually crack the puzzles faster than the adults.
