How Many People Can Play?

The game layout, space and puzzles are optimized for 6 to 8 players, however our games can be played and completed by as few as 2 players.

The maximum number of players who can reserve a game on our website is 8. The maximum number of players for any game is 10. If you have 10 players, pre book for 8 players on the website, and you can add up to 2 extra players on arrival.

If you have more than 10 players, please book 2 separate games; everyone can arrive at the same time, split into two teams and we can start both games at the same time. The teams can play the challenge of their own game, and race against the other teams to escape first, which is great fun!

Can my team split our payments?

Yes, you can split payments with your team on arrival, providing at least 1 person makes the advance reservation on our website to secure your game. The other players can pay on arrival. This option may not be available at busy times, including Friday evening, Saturday and holidays, when we may have a 3 person minimum advance booking.

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE CAN I SCHEDULE A GAME IN TALLAHASSEE?

You can make a reservation for any available game up to 90 days in advance on our website. Advance game reservations close on the website 30 minutes prior to the game scheduled start time.

CAN I CHANGE MY RESERVATION IN TALLAHASSEE?

Yes, you can change any reservation by email. Simply reply to your booking confirmation email, with the new game date and time you would like to play. We can only change a reservation if you requested AT LEAST 24 HOURS prior to the original scheduled game start time.

As American Escape Rooms is a LIVE event, as with all other Escape Rooms, when you make a booking, we commit to you by making that game private, removing it from our website so it cannot be sold to other customers, and we schedule and pay staff. You commit to us by agreeing that all reservations are final. There are no refunds under any circumstances.

  • If you would like to move a reservation to an earlier day or time than the original booking, we will always try to do so, providing there is space available. Just call or email. You may move to an earlier game time if available even the same day.
  • If you would like to move a reservation to a later day or time than the original booking, we will always try to do so, providing there is space available and you ask AT LEAST 24 HOURS in advance. We cannot push back a reservation to a later time the same day.
  • If you would like to move a reservation and you do not know the new date and time, we will "rain check" your reservation for 30 days, providing you ask for the raincheck AT LEAST 24 HOURS in advance of your current reservation. Please request rain check in email, by replying to your booking confirmation email. If you are eligible for a "rain check" we will reply with a unique code and reference number. When you are ready to use the rain check, reply the rain check email to reschedule.
  • We cannot "rain check", reschedule, cancel or refund any reservation the same day or with less than 24 hours’ notice prior to the original game start.

WHEN SHOULD I ARRIVE?

You should plan to arrive at the Tallahassee store, 15 minutes prior to your scheduled game start time, to allow time to find parking, and complete registration prior to playing. All games start on time as they are scheduled live events.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I ARRIVE LATE?

If you are part of a large mixed game group, then the other players in the group for other games will start without you at the scheduled game start time. You may join your game late when you arrive, for the remainder of the game time. If the game is a single private game, the game will start after your arrival and after you have completed the registration paperwork, and you will have the remaining time. For example, if your game is scheduled to start at 5pm, you should be in the store by 445pm, for pre game instruction and registration, and your game will start on time at 5pm. If you arrive at 5.10pm, you are not 10 minutes late, you are already 25 minutes late as you should arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled game start time. As there will be another game after you play, withother customers, and we need time to clean and reset the game for the next team, if you arrive at 510pm for a 5pm game, your 5pm game will still end at the scheduled time of 6pm, so your game would be a maximum of 50 minutes long.

WHAT IF I DO NOT TURN UP, OR ASK TO CANCEL OR RESCHEDULE LESS THAN 24 HOURS BEFORE THE GAME START TIME?

There are no refunds or credits for late arrivals, regardless of traffic conditions, weather, last minute emergencies, illness or any other reason. This is common to every escape room in Florida.

As American Escape Rooms is a LIVE event, as with all other Escape Rooms, when you make a booking, we commit to you by making that game private, removing it from our website so it cannot be sold to other customers, and we schedule and pay staff. We wil not mix other people in the game you booked, we will not sell the game you booked to another customer. You commit to us by agreeing that all reservations are final. There are no refunds under any circumstances.

IS MY GAME APPROPRIATE FOR MY CHILDREN?

Our games were designed for players aged 14 and up. All of our award-winning games are family friendly and many younger players enjoy the games with their family. 

  • Players aged 14 or over can play without an adult in the game, providing the adult has signed a consent form. The signing adult must however remain on the premises.
  • If ALL players are under 14, then the adult signing the consent form must also be inside the game as a player.
  • If any player is 5 or under, they do not count as a player, they do not need to be paid for, but they MUST be restrained in a stroller AT ALL TIMES to be allowed inside the game room. This is a requirement, as parents with the best intentions can get distracted, so children 5 and under must be in a stroller at all times in the game.

DO YOU HAVE A ROOM FOR A PARTY?

Our Award Winning Escape Rooms are designed and built to optimize the game space and customer experience. While we do not have separate party rooms for food and drink, we are located close to many other stores that have food and beverages. If you have a birthday cake, you may bring this with you, and cut it in our reception area. There are no food and drinks allowed inside the game rooms.
