Best you can find
Family
I have played at dozens of escape rooms, and even work at one myself, and I can say that Tay and Josh at Exit Games are putting out escape room quality on a whole other level. The level of detail in each room is so precise that you will often lose yourself to the setting, forgetting for a moment that you're in an escape room. Their hint system and lack of a constant timer help immerse you further into the room. Not having a large clock quickly counting down your remaining time takes off a great deal of pressure, turning off the typical stress factor of an escape room and allowing you to enjoy yourself at your own pace. A well-crafted, evolving storyline follows you through the room, leading to a very satisfying conclusion that gives you a true sense of accomplishment. An overall fantastic escape room experience, The Exit Games are setting the diamond standard for what escape rooms can be.

Without question, the best escape rooms you will ever do.
Friends
I'm an escape room enthusiast that has done around 150 rooms, including 9 states and 3 countries. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the rooms at The Exit Games are far and away the best rooms you will ever find. The immersion, puzzles and attention to detail are second to none. The owners are amazing people that are real enthusiasts themselves and understand what an escape room adventure should be. The rooms are intricately decorated, the puzzles are so well planned and flow incredibly well. Both rooms have a rich story that is built upon as you progress through the adventure. Both Servants of Sleight and Pins & Needles are must- do experiences, but I do want to warn you that they may ruin all other escape rooms for you in the future. This is an absolute required destination for enthusiasts everywhere.

First time ever doing an escape room and it was EPIC
Family
I have been to one escape room before but my siblings have not. We were on a family vacation to Florida and had some free time so we decided to give this a shot together. Literally the best part of our trip and the best decision we've ever made. The rooms are beautiful in terms of the aesthetics and the puzzles themselves. The attention to detail was unforgettable. I really did feel immersed in the world they built. Gonna name drop our host Austin, who should actually win an Academy Award for the role he played in our experience, or consider acting school (my brother said he had the voice of a streamer, haha). It was just all such an incredible experience. My siblings are 16 and 14 and I am 19. We were cracking up and screaming (out of surprise) and yelling (out of happiness) throughout the whole thing! We were running around like chickens with our heads cut off, but it was okay because we were having so much fun doing so! We didn't feel ashamed to be first-timers and were given hints whenever we asked. It was super welcoming and made us feel comfortable and happy to be there. Thank you so much again! My siblings are now obsessed with escape rooms because of how epic this one was.

Thank you Austin!
Servants of Sleight was such an amazing experience! The escape room was written not just to fill the time with puzzles, but as a holistic experience of fun and mystery. It was so artfully done, and made full use of the 90-minutes with more rooms, content, and everything!

Pins and Needles was such a 180-degree genre switch, lol. But everything was executed to a similar level of quality and polish.

It is our favorite Escape Room experience to date, and a precious memory to share with our family forever. Thank you so much to Austin and The Exit Games for an unforgettable day!

A Diamond in the Rough (Servants of Sleight)
Inspiring. My girlfriend and I travel around Florida doing escape rooms, and we were recommended this room. My girlfriend loves doing these, so I didn't have to Poker too much. This room Trumps all the others in theming, engagement, puzzle design and just plain fun. This is now our favorite room.

When we first heard about The Exit Games it seemed like a Diamond in the rough, hidden away in a weirdly secluded spot. The setup was spot on, and the immersion provided through the hint system and the summary the guide gave us set up the experience perfectly. Every puzzle fit in the universe of the game, and were also fun to solve. No time wasters or puzzles designed to leave you scratching your head, they all contribute to the plot and progression. The rooms themselves are excellently designed and have style in Spades. The amount of passion and Heart put into this room is easy to see. And the people running it were fun to talk to as well! I cannot express how immersive and entertaining this room is. If you like escape rooms, try this one, but don't be upset if it ruins other escape rooms for you. The ONLY negative thing I could possibly say is that there are no clocks in the room, you must ask the Room Master for your current time left, which makes it somewhat difficult to keep track of. But I believe that sacrifice was made to enhance the immersion, so I can hardly fault them for that. So join the Club and sign up for this room, I cannot recommend it any harder!

Time & Money Well Spent
Family
The Exit Games Escape Rooms in Clearwater, FL was the best escape room my family & I have ventured into to date. The staff was amazing & super friendly & they made the 90-minute experience personal and fun for all of us. We were able to really immerse ourselves in the experience & were shocked to learn that time had gone by so quickly & that we had used up nearly all of it in the room! We also loved that it was a private experience & that our party was the only group of people in the room for the duration of the experience. The way that this small family-owned business puts their own spin on the escape room experience is well thought out and will definitely help them stand out as a contender for the best escape room experience for families for years to come!

An Amazing Escape Room Experience
I have been hearing about The Exit Games and servants of sleight for over a year now, ever since I started doing a lot of escape rooms. My friends and I finally decided to drive 2.5 hours from Gainesville down to Clearwater just to do the room and drove 2.5 hours back and honestly.... it was definitely worth it!!!!! Servants of sleight is an absolutely excellent room.

The scenery is striking and entirely immersive. I will be careful not to give too much away but every area within the room is very convincing. Some rooms make you feel like you are in a replication of a bar, asylum, prison or whatever, but in this room you feel like you are actually forget you are in an escape room entirely and feel like you are at whatever venue is being imitated.

The puzzles were a lot of fun. A lot of rooms have puzzles that are either too easy or unintuitive, but this room has puzzles that are fun and challenging enough to be fun for people who have escape room experience without being alienating to those who don't. I won't go into much more detail but a couple of puzzles are really special.

The story is where this game really shines. I honestly don't often care very much about the story of whatever room I am doing. I usually end up focused on the puzzles and forget the "in world" reason for doing them. This is not the case in Servants of Sleight. You get your goal early on and it is in your head for the entire game. It's an exciting and fun goal too and I was as happy achieving the "in world" goal as I was completing the escape room. I can not think of another room where I felt that way.

I have done 115 rooms including some of the best in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. I recently listed them in order of how fun the experience was and Servants of Sleight was #2 (Behind 7th room at Dare 2 Escape). The owners are absolutely awesome and super humble considering the quality of their establishment. The only problem I can find with this company is that they only have the one room. Pins and Needles will be out soon I hear, and even if I am in Tallahassee by then I would definitely make the 4.5 hour drive to do the room.

(Copied from my google review, this place deserves to be praised on multiple platforms)

Challenging, Fun, Accommodating, and Interactive
The staff at The Exit Games FL are fun, exuberate people with a knack for immersing players into their storylines and rooms. The expansive play style is amazing as each room builds upon itself. They are very detailed in every aspect of the rooms. They were able to accommodate our large group into one session which we were very thankful for. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a challenge.

Challenging Fun Escape Room!
Family
Absolutely one of our favorite escape rooms. We have been to many escape rooms in various states and the Exit Games Florida is definitely worth visiting. It's challenging, creative, and has a few unique features that we had not encountered before.

An experience like no other
If you want full scale immersion, intuitive puzzles and incredibly decoration, then look no further.

Even with just the one game played, this location has set itself as one of my favorites to date. The room was expansive, keeping you moving from thing to thing, place to place, all the while telling a compelling story that made me want to see more. I felt like I was in those moments, in the situations, fully acting out the pieces that were needed to be done. My words cannot accurately describe how terrific the scenic is, so just let your own eyes see for themselves.

And the employees! Taylor was spectacular! She was knowledgeable, kind, welcoming and helped build up the story and the world even more. Who could ask for more in a game master/escape artist? I do feel a little bad that I waited to the very end to put in a good word for her with The Eye. Next time I'll definitely remember!

If you want something fresh, creative, and just all around fun- this is the place to be!
