| 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. |

| 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. |

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. |

| Das Beste, was man tun kann, um in New Yorker Leben einzutauchen und eine Gegend zu erkunden, in der man fremd ist. Man kommt ins Gespräch mit Leuten, daher sind englische Sprachkenntnisse gut. Ansonsten ist das ganze eine Überraschung, deshalb sei hier nicht alles verraten.
Eindeutig die witzigste und skurrilste "Stadtführung" , die ich je erlebt habe.
Und die Leute machen ihre Sache sehr gut. |

| I'd previously been an 'accomplice' on Accomplice: New York. The West Village version is scaled down in terms of walking but the plot is thicker!
I'd love to be an Accomplice in every place in the world that I visit! |

| The concept is good with the stops and the actors but in general it was a bit of a let down. To be honest I was relieved when it was finally over.
We would have liked to have more clues that would have led us to the various stops rather than being told to go see so and so at the next stop and asking random questions.
The beer and cappuccinos were a nice touch and I would return to the some of the stops we made. |

| All I can say is definitely check this out - and do so without much research. Not really knowing what to expect only adds to the experience. My friend and I had a great time!!!! |

Awesome! A must-do for both locals and visitors.

| This was SO MUCH FUN! It was so well-run and way better than I even expected. I think I would've dressed a little more warmly since we were outside so much, but I'm super excited to take my best friend on the Soho tour when she comes to visit next week. The one thing I'd recommend is that you get totally into it -- it's a game, after all, right? And you'll get more out of it if you play along and have some laughs rather than waiting for everything to be figured out for you. |

| The concept is clever and new, which is key when considering how trite and unimaginative most activities are in NY. However, the conclusion is far too long and wordy. Overall, I would recommend Accomplice to others for its innovative approach to viewing NYC and its interesting storyline. Benita is cute! |

| Very well organised and well run. The actors were really good. The less you tell your friends about what is going to happen, the better. Just tell them it is a tour of the Village. |
