Review on Break In™ Alcatraz By PlayMonster - Unlock The Mystery Of America'S Most Infamous Prison by Mike Cooper

I'm not usually moved to write reviews for products, but I need to make an exception here. I ordered this game to help wrestle the family away from the digital realm for a few hours and am really glad I did. Not only am I impressed with the game play, but the playing board itself it exceptional. It's beautiful, functional and engaging!I also learned something . . . I was surprised to learn that this game, in part, is based on actual events, AND I LIVE IN THE BAY AREA! Shameful, I know.We had a delightful evening marveling at the art and figuring out the crafty puzzles inside. Nothing too easy or overwhelming - just right. Took us about 2 and a half hours to play and provided us a screen free couple of hours.The box says it's for 10 and up, and I would agree with that assessment. We have three teens that took great interest in the, shall we say, "subverting of authority" angle of the game.Now they are bugging me to show them "Escape from Alcatraz", which I haven't seen either (like I said - shameful), so we have that to look forward to as well.This is a great game and I Highly Recommend it!
