We escaped Honor Among Thieves with 15 seconds to spare. Best advice is to divide and conquer.

Great time at Locked Manhattan. Honor Among Thieves is very challenging!

We had such a great time on our first ever escape room experience, taking on the Honor Among Theives room. If you're thinking of going but you aren't sure if it's your thing, do it! Thanks for a great time - my only regret is that we didn't beat the room. That darned lock!

7 of us did the Honor Among thieves room and it was very challenging. We got farther than most people, but we would've needed an extra 5-10mins to win. Highly recommend!

We had a great time with our first escape room experience. Our family enjoyed working together to solve the puzzles and riddles found in the Honor Among Thieves room. The staff member who helped us was friendly, helpful, encouraging and even took time to show us some things we missed after our hour was over. Our teens ages 18,16, 14 and 11 all found solvable puzzles and enjoyed it. We all want to go back again.
