Joe and Mary's Restaurant: mafia escape room

It's a hot Thursday afternoon in July. You're at the outdoor table on Knickerbocker Avenue with Carmine Galante and two associates. The cigar smoke hangs in the still summer air.

Then you see them. Three masked men coming through from the kitchen. You know what this is.

Someone on this table set Galante up. The bodyguards disappeared two minutes ago. Someone sent them.

You have seconds. Get out before they reach the table. Find the evidence of who betrayed him — and make sure it doesn't lead back to you.
