About the escape room
It's 1926 here in Chicago, and depression is still rife. Jobs are few and far between and the Prohibition has been in force for six years now. Everyone still drinks, nothin' has changed. But now the mob control the streets, the supply and the money. The influence of the Outfit is far reaching. Most of the cops are even under their control. Who can put them in the joint? You can, that's who. The Commissioner has put together a special task force of straight, trusted cops and you're on the team. You've spent the last few months infiltrating their network and now tonight is the night to get the evidence you need to put them away forever. But it won't be easy, your cover might be blown! Do you have what it takes?

AI Overview

AIPlayers praise the large, multi-room set, strong build quality, and polished sound and lighting. Difficulty trends easy to moderate, with a puzzle-heavy, brain-first style and a few math bits. Most locks are classic number or letter padlocks, balanced by some neat mechanical moments. A couple of folks note it’s less visually flashy than other Tulleys rooms, but still fits the theme well.
WeaknessesNot the most visually jaw-dropping compared with some sister rooms. Heavy on padlocks and logic, which might feel old-school to some. Occasional math may not be everyone’s cup of tea.
StrengthsImmersive set design with excellent use of space, audio, and lighting. Smooth flow and enough tasks to keep bigger teams busy. Friendly, proactive GM support rounds it out.
SecurityNo safety concerns noted; the set feels sturdy and spacious, which eases crowding. Standard briefings and attentive staff keep things smooth.
Level of fearNot a scare room and family-friendly. Several teams brought kids and had a good time.
Actors' gameNo live actors mentioned; interaction is mainly through the GM for hints. Staff and GM support, including shout-outs to Mi, get strong praise.
Quality of riddlesFair, varied puzzles with a clear logic path, mixing codes, letters, and a few mechanical interactions. A couple of tasks rely on careful listening, and some light maths shows up. The overall flow is clean and satisfying for both newbies and enthusiasts.
PlotYou’re undercover cops in 1926 Chicago, infiltrating the Outfit to gather the evidence that finally puts them away. The tension comes from staying covert while working through the network.
Difficulty levelEasy to moderate overall, but puzzle density and occasional maths can nudge it up. Newer players will do fine with hints, while enthusiasts will enjoy the volume and flow.

Took our crew of four plus two kids and had a blast. Tons of room, clear story beats, and the GM nudged us at just the right times. Not scary at all, just classic, satisfying puzzle chasing.

Loved the reveals and that one puzzle where listening actually matters. Smoothly run, fair clues, and the ending lands nicely. Would happily recommend to mixed-experience groups.

Excellent large multi-room build. We played as six, including three kids, and there was space and work for everyone. Puzzles sit in the easy-to-moderate range, mostly number and letter padlocks with some mechanical bits, strong theming, and a really fun run.

Like Mutiny, this one feels replayable just because it’s so good. The immersion, story, and puzzle flow mesh beautifully. Some clever challenges in the mix—bring your listening skills.

Not the flashiest room at Tulleys, but the puzzles really sing and the theme holds tight. Good variety, no filler, and great GM support throughout.

Tulleys’ craft shows. They take a well-used theme and outdo the competition. You get more than you expect, with brilliant set design, spot-on sound and lighting, and superb use of space.

Even though it’s probably one of our least favorites at Tulleys, it still earns top marks because their rooms are excellent. Fun, mostly brain-based puzzles compared with their more physical games. I’d honestly recommend doing them all.

Top-tier flow and atmosphere. The audio cues and little reveals made the mob theme click, and the set feels huge. One of those games where time just disappears.

Another standout from this venue. We had a great time, helped by our GM Mi—thank you! The size and top-notch construction are classic Tulleys. It’s less physical than some of their rooms but still covers plenty of ground. If you can, play here.

Great multi-room sprawl and a good balance of tasks so nobody stood around. We took a couple of hints, then clicked into the rhythm and flew. Properly immersive fun.

More brains than brawn here. Lots of padlocks and a couple of mathy steps, which is my thing but not my partner’s. Still a solid, fun run with quality build.

Very puzzle-forward with a few maths moments. It’s not as visually showy as some of their other rooms, but it suits the theme and will please escape room fans.
