| We enjoyed the whole production but unfortunately had a poor group that did not gel well. One location was a bit of a mess. The actor was great but there was complete confusion as to whether we were to have a drink there or eat or neither. There were enough places laid but it was difficult to get behind the actor so a number stood and did not participate in the food which was not enough to look like we were meant to share( 2 plates with 3 asparagus on them and 3 pieces of Quiche + a few slices of bread). There was a wine bottle again a quarter full and so not enough to go round and thus people stood back making it a little uneasy. Most of the actors were really good and the finish acting excellent!
Bit annoying that half the group were bragging that they got the trip for $40 whilst the others had to pay $67
Having been offered a drink early which was great there was nothing further done properly which was poor. There should have been at least one more organised drink on the trip either at the end or the restaurant.
Overall we had a great time but with the others paying $40 and the mess up with the drinks felt it was a little over priced.

| My group of 7 (women) friends from New Jersey, was combined with a delightful young family from London, and it worked! The venues were well chosen, the props were interesting, and we really got quite a tour of downtown in the course of about 3 hours. We met some entertaining characters, and the only thing I would have done differently would have been to try to play the part a little better, of an "accomplice" in the scheme described to us. Afterwards, my friends and I went back to the restaurant on Mulberry Street and enjoyed dinner alfresco. This activity is an adventure that I highly recommend. |

| This was such a surprise from the beginning to the end. I initially tried to find out as much as possible about the plot with little success. As a theatre lover, the actors are fantastic and extremely good at improv. There are so many variables that could go wrong in this scenario which the actors must compensate for.
The only regret my friends and I had at the end of Accomplice, is that we should have been more outgoing. Accomplice requires you to walk up to strangers and strike a conversation with them.
The only critique I have of the game itself is that as a walking tour, there are definitely locations that are not so pituresque of New York (alleyways, streets full of construction).
Overall, it's a great experience. The game may not be recommended for children and pre-teens though. The actors tend to have more adult humor. |

| My Husband and I brought mt 13 year old son and 16 year old daughter with 6 of her friends to Accomplice NY for her Sweet Sixteen. Everyone absolutely loved it! The characters were wonderful actors and improvisers. Every time we met up with a character, we thought "this person is really good, the next can't be as good" Each time we were proven wrong. They were all wonderful! We each had our own favorite. I can't imagine the tour without them.
We live in North Jersey and even though my daughters's friends have been to NYC, they said this was such a great idea, because they had never visited the areas of NYC that the tour walked through.
It's been two days and we've already told around 20 people that they have to this. I've already gathered 4 couples to come with my husband and I so we can do Accomplice the Village.
We were the second to last group of the day and could have had the opportunity to speak with the actors since most were done with their parts. Both my husband and I would have loved to stay and talk to them, but we had the kids and had been on the move since 8:00am, and they were quite exhausted.
We had already put in a solid 9 hours that day by taking the ferry into NYC, a bus midtown, walked around Central park and gone on a carriage ride, taken another bus to go on the Beast and another bus downtown to catch Accomplice and we all had enough energy and humor to to agree that Accomplice was the highlight of the day. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed our adventure provided by the Accomplice: New York. We drove from South Jersey and met our local cousins for the show. We joined a few others who we got to know as the journey went on...including an 11 year old. The delight in her eyes when we found a clue or figured one out was priceless. It was a lot of walking but definitely worth it. Perhaps the best part was debriefing with the cast at the end! |

| Buy your Accomplice tickets now!! It was a friend's bachelorette party and she flew in from London for it so we knew it had to be special. The entire group - 13 of us - were friends of hers that were local or came in from other parts of the US just for the event so we were eagerly anticipating greatness. Accomplice delivered that and then some. They sprinkled in info about the bachelorette that we supplied ahead of time and personalized it in a host of other ways. Dang, A+ for effort! People's personality quirks came out with every bizarre yet calculated challenge and even though it was a blazing hot day, we enjoyed ourselves and the beer breaks even more! Everything was very well done and there's a good chance that my friend's fiancee will follow suit and have his mates embark on a wild goose chase around Manhattan with the good people of Accomplice as well. Highly recommended! |

| I have a wonderful group of girlfriends who did this on a sunny Sunday afternoon. We all had the best time ever. From our first experience with one of our contacts we were hooked. Everyone we met along the way were funny and just great characters. I loved seeing the city in a different way. We grew up in Queens and live on Long Island but have never walked through these neighborhoods in such a fun way before.
I highly recommend this to everyone and plan to recommend this to everyone I know. |

| After waiting in a designated(we arrived early) area my friend and I wondered how in the world anyone could find us--or the other members of our group. Sure enough, we were found, and the fun began immediately. The actors were all really into their roles, which got us into our 'roles', which made the entire adventure so much more exciting and fun. Our group meshed very well together----the way people do when they need to solve something together.
I strongly recommend this exciting activity for anyone who is visiting New York. |

| This was a bachelorette party made up of a bunch of people who didn't previously know each other. By the end of the day, we were all well acquainted and had shared many laughs. The actors/characters are amazing, the tasks/clues are a blast and it was incredibly well organized. Our New Yorkers in the group are all anxious to do the Village show and our Los Angelenos are itching to do the Hollywood show. Thanks to Neil Patrick Harris for talking it up on talk shows so we learned about it - now we can each talk it up to further promote this terrifically fun afternoon. A million thumbs up!!! |
