📖 THE STORY
Having entered a speakeasy in 1920 NYC, you and your group are stumbling to find your way out. It seems like the only way is to mix their famous drinks and hope to see visions that will be your ticket out of here.

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE
The set design was amazing and immersive, from the distilling barrels to the wooden interiors to the metal safes. There were some amazing props as well to simulate a speakeasy and the use of them as puzzles was fantastic.
The puzzles were all set around a speakeasy theme and blended into the environment flawlessly.
The story was fun and lighthearted, which set the tone for a good time in this room.
There were a lot of reveals and eureka moments as we progressed that continued to keep us excited and engaged.
There were 2 puzzles specifically that had some cool tech behind it. The puzzles were clued well but still surprised us with what needed to be done.
🧩 MISSED THE MARK
Overall, this was a solid room with no major issues.
🏹 TAKE A SHOT?
"Moonshine Madness" was a fun experience with some surprises along the way. The puzzles were clever and the props used for them set the ambiance in the room. There was some fun tech which led to some great eureka moments along the way as well. We played with 3 but there was room for up to 6 to enjoy the party. Anyone who enjoys a speakeasy theme or some creative puzzles would enjoy this game. Will your group “shine” in this room or find it “staggeringly” difficult to escape?
