Outing Highlights

THE MISSION

A 90-minute interactive heist

Teams race through a staged casino heist using smartphone navigation and timed puzzles, culminating in opening the safe and a final 15-minute dash to escape with the loot.

THE CAST

Meet Dan Rooney’s crew of specialists

You encounter pre-filmed members of Dan’s team — Jack Potts (the insider), Wheels (the getaway driver) and a rotation of safe‑crackers and hackers — who deliver clues and skills that keep the plot moving.

THE TENSION

Puzzle-driven, clock-bound gameplay

The experience is structured as a timed raid: solve sequential puzzles and codes against the clock, then manage a 15-minute escape window once the safe is opened.

This is urban role-play pressed into a tight, kinetic 90 minutes: you navigate to GPS waypoints on your phone, trigger encounters with Dan Rooney’s filmed crew, decode locks and execute a staged casino break-in, then sprint through the final countdown to clear out with the loot.
