🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • This experience had some nicely executed tech and non-tech puzzles, that seamlessly blended into the environment and were enjoyable to find.

  • There were some eureka moments that caught us off guard and made us smile once we were able to solve the puzzles to them.

  • There were clever props used for puzzles that felt like they belonged in the game and made the experience better.

  • The set design hit the mark with the pizzeria theme with so many perfect props to top off the room.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • This was a solid room that had no major misses in it.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

"Mob Heist" was an engaging game with creative props that blended into the game as well as the puzzles associated with them. The puzzles provided us with a lot of great eureka moments and the room design was on point with a pizzeria. We played with 6 people and found that anymore would get tight. Heist fans and people who love clever puzzles would enjoy this game. Are you ready to get in on a “pizza” the action?
