Questburgh Escape Room, Pittsburgh

Just off the banks of the mighty Monongahela lies Questburgh Escape Room. Inside, a pair of challenging rooms dares visitors to test their senses as a clock ticks away the seconds.

• Pirates: Your good captain has left you an old treasure map that promises untold riches. It'll be up to you and as many as five other crew members to crack the map's many secrets as you search for clues around the captain's quarters.

• Mafia: You and your compatriots wake up only to find that you've been kidnapped by the mob. You'll have to work together if there's any chance of escape. Plentiful puzzles ensure you'll be busy, but don't take too long. Only an hour remains before it's too late.
