Cell Block 4 - $ CALL FOR PRICING
Our most popular game in our Boston location, top tier reviews from both veterans and new players. Designed for viable gameplay for mixed booking groups of up to 12 players. Exaggerated theme-park style prison break with narrative nods to Shawshank Redemption, Cool Hand Luke, Escape From Alcatraz, etc, including narrative clues in Morgan Freeman impersonator voice.
Groups are split into 4 realistic prison cells (sliding doors, real prison toilets, prison bunk beds, faux cinderblock walls, etc.) on either side of a shared hallway, and must overcome security lockdown to get out of their individual cells, then solve puzzles and clues left by a hilariously motley crew of former inmates to escape the block itself.
