    First time doing an escape room, loved it!! Such a good place for a rainy day activity. I did the asylum room - very difficult so recommend doing an easier room for a first timer. But in all Highly recommend!!

    I'm happy to share a follow-up after my last experience. The owner reached out personally and…read moreoffered us a free booking to give them a second chance, which I really appreciated. This time, my girlfriend and I took on the Scooby-Doo room, and it was night and day compared to our first visit. The logic in this room felt a lot more coherent and satisfying to solve. We had a blast working through the puzzles, but the real standout was the shift in atmosphere. The staff was actually engaged and helpful, which made a huge difference in the overall vibe. Even the post-game process was handled correctly. When it came time for pictures, the staff followed the proper procedures and actually paid attention to the quality of the shot. It was just a much better experience across the board in terms of attitude and customer service. I'm glad we came back to see what the team is actually capable of when they're on their A-game. -- Previous review: Yeah no. I was really looking forward to the Antidote room, but the lack of energy from the staff completely killed the immersion. From the moment we walked in, the employee introducing us to the story seemed like they were reading just to get their job over with. There was zero passion or effort to get us excited about the mission. The lack of interest continued after we actually finished. When we finally solved the room, the staff member looked like they couldn't be happier to see us leave. There was no "congratulations" or enthusiasm for the game... Just a cold, rushed vibe to get us out the door. To top it off, our team photo was a joke. The staff member clearly saw that my eyes were closed when he took the picture, but he didn't bother to mention it or offer a retake. He just sent a half-assed, unusable photo to my email. For the price you pay, you'd expect at least a baseline level of customer service and engagement. L experience overall.

Lots of puzzles, think outside the box and team work. They also have two rooms where two teams can compete against each other, that sounded super fun as well. Hope to be back!

    Our scout troop had a fun time. They escaped the new kid room in just over 30 minutes (we…read moreanticipated they would take a full hour but they were given additional clues to help them along). The kid room was geared for about 3-4 players but we had a group 7. They also gave a lot of clues to our scouts because they really do want want groups to break out. LOCATION: This escape room is a good option if you want an indoor, non-touristy activity in St. Augustine. The escape room is located about 15-20 minutes south of historic St. Augustine and about 30-40 minutes south of Jacksonville. The easiest route is to take 95 to the SR206 (Crescent Beach/Hastings exit) otherwise you can get stuck with all the lights on US1. The strip is located behind a Walgreens. They offer great group prices if you're looking to have your kids try out an escape room but don't want to drop too much $$. They also let us sneak a peek at the two other escape rooms. Looks fun! BTW - You can celebrate your escape with ice cream at the Cold Cow just two miles up the road (gotta love when you can rely on Yelp to find an ice cream spot when your troop finishes earlier than expected!)

    This is such a fun place that I've been wanting to go to for a while. I'm a crafty person but don't…read morealways have time or I want to try something out but not get all of the supplies so this place is great for that because they have EVERYTHING. Whether you want to paint canvas, custom wood cutouts, they do resin pour trays and coasters, diy fairy gardens. Basically if you see it on Pinterest they likely have the supplies to help you make it. I've been wanting to try resin for a really long time and they were great with showing us the process. They have tons of colors and add-ins to choose from like glitter, glitter flakes, Mika powder, etc. Then when we finished we leave it and they add handles to it so its a usable tray. While we were working on that another party was painting a large customized welcome wood sign and a party was doing the splatter room. I like that its a place where you can go with a group and each do your own craft vs a class where you're all making the same thing. Super excited to see the end results and to go back and make some more creations!

The space was clean and organized, and I appreciated that they had everything ready to go when I arrived. They give you protective gear (which you definitely need!) and you "gear up" before walking in by wearing a mesh suit, hair net and cover your shoes too but you can take them off and just slide on their "socks" they give you . Once you're in there, it's just a blast--literally throwing paint on the canvas, the walls, and maybe a little on yourself too. It's messy in the best way, and weirdly therapeutic. You can also use their Alexa to play music of your choice and make it a fun vibe and have your own mini party. I really liked that you get to take home your canvas afterward, it's such a cool keepsake. You wait 24 hours to come back and once it is fully dry you can take it home. It's not something I'd do all the time, but for a creative, out-of-the-box experience, it's totally worth it. Highly recommend if you're looking for something playful and a little different to do in Gainesville. I love that they have so many options such as acrylic projects, string projects, painted glasses and other DYI experiences. You can set an appointment and come in at your reserved a lot. I'll 100% be coming back and already want to try one of their other DIY experiences!
