Howdy partner! (in crime). You've been tasked with looting the bank for all you can. Your buddy on the inside, Jesse Roberts, has left you clues to break into the bank, open the vault and get out of there without leaving a trail. Be sure to grab as much money as you can, but whatever you do, make sure the sheriff don't catch ya! Think you have what it takes?

Completed with husband, 9 year old and 6 year old. Pretty straightforward with several puzzles being repetitive just to waste time. 6 year old couldn't do too much in here as everything was quite high up. Some nice tech bits.
One of my favourite games I have played so far, fantastic design and playability, some of the games inside are extremely well thought out.
Generally a solid game, with a fun theme and some clever implementation. We were a team of two, and there's a fair bit to do (we did the additional side quest too). Generally high quality props and the GM was helpful in nudging us in the right direction when we needed it.
There were a couple of puzzles, the concept of which we identified quickly, but they just swallow up a lot of time to resolve. There seemed no way to speed things up (even if our team size had been larger) other than sitting down and methodically working through them. I personally find time sinks like these a bit frustrating because they take the pace and excitement out of the game, and essentially just add 5 mins to everyone's times - but that's just my personal take.
