📖 THE STORY

You can't remember exactly what happened last night but when you woke up, you realized all of the evidence left in this room could really damage your reputation if it got out. This is your chance to make things right. Whatever happens in Vegas should always stay in Vegas...

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • There are a couple of fun puzzles in this room that adhere to the Vegas vibe. Whether it be the heist or the morning after, your team will probably have something they can "relate" to while playing the experience.

  • Some props that were used in the game to "tell" the story and to have the players implement the action really resembled real-life situations. There was one prop in particular that gave an "exploding" moment.


🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • One clue that pointed to a "hidden" object was fairly difficult to interpret. We thought the solution was for an "input" somewhere rather than searching for an object.

  • The conclusion of the "Casino Heist" game felt more solid than "The Morning After". The storyline also was better written and more conclusive.

  • Because this room could be used for two games, there were places where props were to be placed on there to trigger something in one game but not in the other. The empty spaces could be confusing to the players as to whether they have completed everything in the room or not.


🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

I've combined both of these reviews in one write-up because these two games are very similar. They were staged in the same room. We played them back to back just to see what the differences were. A couple of props were swapped out but the majority of the room looks the same. If you enjoy puzzles more, the casino heist game has a few more. If you enjoy more "adult-ish" themed props and Vegas type of "fun", you'll probably pick "The Morning After" (It's also an 18+ game). The puzzles in "The Morning After" game were also easier. Both of these games were meant for beginners to have fun in so the puzzles were not so challenging. You even have a call button in the room where you can order drinks to be bought into the room. If you are planning a bachelor/bachelorette party, this is the perfect room for the celebration!
