Everyone wants their dream job, but there's Nuthin like working for the 'Family'! In 1971, located in Jersey City Giovanni’s Italian Deli was commandeered by the infamous Pantano Crime Family as payment for an outstanding gambling debt. Giovanni was allowed to keep running his business as the “acting owner” with the understanding that the Deli would now be one of the Family’s new offices and a front for laundering millions of dollars for the Pantanos. Since your induction into the family you’ve climbed the ranks quickly and have settled into your newly promoted roll as Consigliere or Chief Advisor to Don Dominico Pantano. This is the highest position you can attain without being directly related to the Pantano family. Today is a sad day…you’re attending Uncle Julio Fiorentino’s funeral. He was a beloved Capo from the East Side and there are hundreds in attendance. After the funeral you arrive at St. Vincent’s Hall and Underboss Micuzzu"The Butcher" Nicola instructs you to get back to Giovanni’s deli asap to pick up the food for the reception.

What a great experience! I’ve had this on my wishlist for a long time, and I am glad I finally had the opportunity to do it. The rooms were some of the largest I’ve ever seen. Theming was great and the gameplay was as well. Highly recommend.

La Famiglia was a very solid room. Great progression and set design. Felt like we were never going to get to the end! Large sprawling sets, fun cinematic moments and good direction. Some puzzles felt frustrating and could have used more signposting. Various parts of the game felt unpolished and rushed, while other parts felt the opposite. Some puzzles were solved too early before they were supposed to be active in the story, leading to confusion. Be sure to bring your A game, this one is quite the epic adventure! Definitely not my favorite at Sanctuary, but the scale and sheer size of this ambitious game make it a definite good pick.

We LOVED how immersive this room was! It’s so creative and the puzzles were great! Our game master was Jaydon and he was a great help! We drove from DFW to come do these and it was so worth it! Definitely coming back 🎉

I have been fortunate to play both variations of this game (old location and new location) and find it to be a challenging game. You need to have your wits and a good team to pull off the win. The theme is a lot of fun, we went for Italian cuisine afterwards because we were still in the moment, haha. I really enjoy what the team here did with the new location for this game, especially with how the "street" scene in the game. I can't wait to play the Christmas version of the game
