| My husband, and two daughters ( ages 14 and 17) and I did Accomplice NY on Mother's Day. We were in a group with three other darling young women, and had a blast deciphering codes, reading maps, following clues, etc. The event was well organized, well thought out, and a terrific value for 3 hours of entertainment! I highly recommend it! |

| The fun and excite started with the phone call telling us where to meet and it didn't end until we had completed our assignment and received our reward. Its a great way to see parts of NY that you might not ordinarily go to. The clues make you think but you don't require any specific knowledge to solve the clue. We had a great time even though it rtained on us the whole time and we took a couple of wrong turns. I'm recommending it to everyone I know going to NY. Thinking of planning a trip to Hollywood so we can do the one there. |

| I decided that instead of having the usual dinner out with friends, that I wanted to try Accomplice NY for my birthday celebration instead. So, eight of us got together for the afternoon and had a fantastic time seeing New York in a whole new light. The storyline was fun and the actors were funny, professional and very adept at improvisation.
The only drawback of our experience is that we were joined by another couple and they were too aggressive about getting to the actors and the clues first. As a result, some of our group never had a chance to see many of the clues or participate in decision-making. In general, I think 10 people might be too many for the experience. 6-8 would be ideal. Otherwise, a total blast and I'm looking forward to Accomplice: The Village! |

| My 18 year old daughter and myself did the Accomplice tour and it was fabulous. I would definately recommend it to anyone going to New York as you see places that we would have never visited just as tourists.
Definately need to wear sensible shoes as there is a lot of walking involved and you need to work as a group to sovle the mystery. It also gave us more of an insight of how easy it is to get around New York. The group we were in were brilliant and we had such a laugh. We stayed and had a drink with some of them and the people involved after the event. |

| My friends and I participated in the activity on a recommendation from someone who had participated 3-years prior... He did not give us any specifics but the website wet our appetites just enough to find it alluring. There were 10 people in our group including myself and 2 friends and we were thoroughly entertained. Not only was the experience engaging, but sharing the experience with ourselves and the other participants (strangers) made it more fun; because we got to meet new people from other parts... even Luxenburg. As commented before, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend anyone to try it at least once, you won't be disappointed :) |

| Can't really review the event without giving away deatils and THAT would ruin the whole thing. Simply put, this is the best entertainment and was great for the all of us to spend time together.
Thanks to all at Accomlice, just great. |

| I am so not the right audience for Accomplice: New York because I really don't enjoy interacting with people who are "in character" as characters other than themselves. Unfortunately, that's what Accomplice: New York turned out to be, which is something that I'd have known if I'd bothered to read the material on the web site -- or even the review that my daughter brought to my attention.
Because I'm not really the right sort of audience member for this sort of theatre-on-the-street, I felt pretty uncomfortable when having to interact with the various fictional characters. However, the actors' performances seemed campy, engaging and fun; the performers gave off vibes that made them seem nice -- even when they were supposed to be tough characters -- and everyone seemed to want to engage the audience members / tourists. In fact, everyone else on my tour seemed to be having a great time, including my daughter. And parts of the tour did seem surprising and original.
I had been interested in Accomplice: New York because of its promise to us sights that we as tourists might not ordinarily see. On that count, the tour succeeded pretty well, although the actual number of identifiable "spots" were few and (this is a strength) obscure. I will tell you that, when my daughter and I found ourselves in unfamiliar territory two days later, we were able to find our ways back to familiar neighborhoods and the subway by retracing the path from the tour -- a real boon that made the experience worth the money in my book. |
