It’s 1926 and the US is in the midst of prohibition. You find yourself in front of a flower shop, which looks about as innocuous as they come. But is it all that it seems? Is this one of those speakeasies you’ve heard so much about? And do you have what it takes to go inside?
EscapeWorks Denver transports you to a bygone era with The Speakeasy. You and your team will have 60 minutes to hunt for clues to help you solve puzzles, evade crooks, and keep the cops off your back. All within the smokey backdrop of a rough and tumble gin joint.
The Speakeasy is perfect for parties, as well as corporate groups. It’s also a great homage to the prohibition era, which is a time period rife with historical importance:
- It was still legal to drink in your own home during prohibition
- Prohibition was integral in the creation of non-alcoholic beer containing less than 0.5% alcohol
- There were over 30,000 speakeasies in New York City in the 1920s
- Certain counties throughout the US continue to ban alcohol to this day
