Sparks of greatness, but anticlimactic

| The idea is very good, and parts of this were exciting and involving. However, the script did not grab me: I had little interest in the storyline and wasn't rewarded for solving the riddles. There were many irrelevant details in the plot but the clues we needed to solve were simple: there was pretty much no way for us to go wrong, which didn't motivate us to try. The ending was an anti-climax.
The best part of this experience was exploring the village, and some of the acts, like the standup comedian, were very funny, but as an entire theatrical experience, it was vague and trivial and unabsorbing. |

| A great day (actually 2 1/2 hrs. We were lucky for sunny weather. The story was great,
the players were great. It kept our interest and we found it very creative. This is great fun. |

| I bought a ticket for Accomplice: The Village for my mother and myself as her 62nd birthday gift. We were joined by my brother and sister-in-law and a friend and her mom (in her late 60s). The group included one other couple.
We gelled well together as a group, and, as a result had a great time. It was fun and the clues were challenging enough to require thought and disucssion, but not so difficult as to be frustrating. We saw a wide swath of the Village, stopped at some fun restaurants/cafes, and overall laughed and had a great time.
This is great for people who like to explore neighborhoods on foot and enjoy solving puzzles. |

| We were there for my daughters 25th and my granddaughters 14th birthdays and wanted something different to do and "we found it". We all had fun and even though my 25 year old "social worker" daughter didn't understand that it was all part of the game until well into the 2nd leg of the tour we had a great laugh.
We will do it again and maybe next time will join you in the Manhattan tour.
Thanks for making their 'birthday' so much fun. |

| I would not like to give too much away... but it was a fun afternoon following the clues around the Village. Everyone became a suspect as we looked for our missing girl... Recommended! |

| My husband and I just got back from our trip to NYC and we are telling everyone about Accomplice: The Village. It was absolutely the highlight of our weekend. If you only have the time or money to do one thing while you are in the city make it this, you won't regret it. Everything was so well done. We were thoroughly impressed. We can't wait to make it back so we can experience Accomplice: New York. Four thumbs way up!!! |

| Being from the NY area, one tends to take the city for granted. People from all over the world yearn to visit the big apple, and we are lucky enough to have it right in our backyard! I used to work right on Varick Street, and before The Accomplice, there were so many beautiful parts of the village that remained hidden from my 9-5 life.
The Accomplice provided my friends and I with the opportunity to take a break from our usually fast paced lives and slow down to enjoy all the beauty this city has to offer. During our crime solving mission, we were introduced to many local pubs, coffee shops, and great places to eat. We saw fantastic architecture and historic sites. It is the perfect way to see the village whether you are a tourist or a local.
The cast of characters we met along the way kept us laughing the entire day. The actors were great and the challenges they presented us with kept us on our toes. We were constantly looking for clues or people who may or may not have the hidden secrets we were looking for. You really start to wonder who is in on it, and who is just a regular person on the street. Considering NY has some characters of its own, this presents a challenge as the day goes on and you find yourself deeper and deeper in the mystery of the missing painting.
I highly recommend this experience. Book a large group and enjoy it with your friends, it's a unique experience you won't find anywhere else. |

| I wasn't sure how much I would enjoy this experience but I was pleasantly surprised. We had great weather so that helped but regardless it was a great opportunity to walk around the Village, coming from someone who spends most of her days in the city closer to midtown. The event itself was quite entertaining and all of the participants were fun. Good time to spend a day with friends. |

| My girlfriends and I did the Accomplice and had a blast! It was a fun way to see parts of the city that we don't often take advantage of, even living just across the river! Luckily, we got a beautiful day, but I don't even think weather would've put a damper on our time. We usually get together and do a Broadway play once a year, but this was even better because we got to socialize and interact while doing it!
The people that we interacted with (the actors) were a lot of fun too! Overall, this was a really great experience! |
