Prohibition Escape Room: Step Back in Time in Dublin

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the game about?

  Prohibition is set in 1920s America during the era of Al Capone and illegal speakeasies. You and your group of up to 8 players have just 60 minutes to hide all the contraband before the police raid your underground bar. It's a medium-difficulty room filled with era-appropriate props, clever puzzles, and a gripping storyline — think Peaky Blinders meets a live escape room adventure. The 1920s setting is richly detailed and completely immersive, making it a favourite for groups who love history, atmosphere, and a challenge.
• Is the game suitable for children?

  Prohibition is generally suitable for older children and teenagers, though the theme does include references to tobacco, alcohol, and firearms (all props, of course) as part of its authentic 1920s speakeasy setting. The game narrative can be adjusted by your game master to remove any strong language and keep it more family-appropriate — just let them know before you start. We recommend this room for players aged 12 and above, with a supervising adult required for players aged 15 and under. For younger children, King's Quest offers a completely family-friendly medieval adventure with no mature themes.
• Is the game scary/claustrophobic?

  Not at all — Prohibition is one of our most comfortable and approachable rooms. The 1920s speakeasy setting is relatively well-lit, spacious, and has no horror elements, jump scares, or frightening atmosphere whatsoever. There are some intense story moments and dramatic puzzle sequences, but nothing designed to frighten — the excitement comes purely from the race against the clock. It's a great choice for groups who want a fun, immersive challenge without any of the scares found in rooms like Orphanage or Cabin in the Woods.
• Is the game suitable for pregnant people/those with epilepsy/mobility issues?

  Prohibition is one of our most accessible rooms, featuring fairly wide open spaces with no crawling, tunnels, or particularly confined segments. There are no strobe lights, jump scares, or loud unexpected noises, making it a comfortable choice for players with epilepsy, anxiety, or pregnancy concerns. Some parts of the room may be difficult to reach for wheelchair users, but the game is still fully playable as long as at least one team member can access all areas.
