| We were amazed at the ability of the actors to stay in character. Three of our group were Italian and were always trying to break through the demeanor of the characters. The creators are brilliant and the cast were superb. When, on the third stop, a protest march disturbed the scene the actor ad-lived brilliantly, even talking with the police on the spot.
My daughter and I had the most fun. We wished we had signed up for the 5:00 time slot as it was very hot in New York on Saturday, but the heat aside I will heartily recommend this activity to anyone going to (or living in) New. York. My daughter works in a hospital there and is trying to get a group of her co-workers together to experience the fun.
If there ever is a sequel to the Accomplice I will come back to New York just to participate.
Kudos to the whole staff and creators.
Thanks to Neil Patrick Harris and Live with Regis and Kelly and God Bless the frogs.

| We had a group of women ages 27-70 and everyone had a blast! It was even more fun than we expected and the Accomplice "cast" is just phenomenal! It's one of the most fun things we could imagine doing in NYC and you get to see so many areas you'd probably never just run into as a typical tourist. Highly recommended to anyone!! Can't wait for Accomplice 2 to come out! |

Highly Recommended Fun

| I heard about Accomplice: New York through my mom who heard about it from Doogie Howser (Neil Patrick Harris) who raved about it on a tv show. Guess what. Doogie was right. We had a great time. The actors were great (they definitely made us laugh a lot). The locations were great. The clues were clever. I would absolutely recommend it to everyone (and i have been), however, try to go with a group of your own friends. While going with strangers puts an interesting spin on it, it would definitely be better if you went with 7 other people that you know. Anyway, it is indeed the best entertainment value in NYC. i will definitely do it again with the next version. |

| What an awesome way to flit and flee through fun neighborhoods and districts. The clues and actors were great fun and at times hysterical. |

Don't read any more reviews - just go

| This do-it-yourself theatrical scavenger hunt is a blast. Some of us were from New York & some were visiting, and we all had a great time. Don't want to spoil the experience by describing it, but it's like the most fun game you could play at summer camp, only you're an adult and you haven't played around like this in a long, long time. |

Had a great time

| We would reccommend accomplice NY to everyone. My children thought it was the best part of our trip to NY. We look forward to the new adventure when it becomes available. |

| it would have been better if it was just our family instead of being with strangers. We have 2 teens so it would have been a more teamwork experience for our family. Also, i don't like a time limit because we couldn't stop and look at things, explore things that caught our attention. It's more of an out of the box dinner theatre mystery than a tour of seeing NY. It seems like the one girl in our group was a plant for the performing company because she kept hurrying us along. |

Great way to tour New York City

| I went to the show with my husband and sister. We're all just over 30 and have only been to NYC a few times. We were all a little let down to find out the rest of our group was one big family- grandma, grandpa, mom, dad, and two boys about 10/12 yrs old. Very nice family but you could tell the actors censored themselves as we went along to clean it up for the kids and only the dad and the kids really participated. I think the show would have been much more fun if we had been paired with a couple of smaller groups or singles in our age group. There is alot of walking in this show as you go from the seaport through Chinatown and Little Italy, so wear your walking shoes.
I loved the idea of this show and most of the actors were very funny and engaging. We lost momentum a few times though, and by the end most of our group was ready to go. (I'm not sure if this was due to our mismatched group or if the show is just a little too long.)
We did enjoy this show. It was a great way to see some classic NY sights and neighborhoods and it was fun figuring out the clues and finding our "contacts" in the city. However, the group you're in definately impacts the kind of experience you're going to have so unless you are going as a group of 8, it's a crap shoot. |

| Creative, fun, surprising. A wonderful way to explore parts of Manhattan with a group of many ages. All done with a great sense of adventure. |
