Mark as done to rate

No Crybabies Allowed Holy S#*t… you just secured an apprenticeship under one of the most acclaimed tattoo artists in the world: Paul Tompskins AKA Skinz. Now the question is - do you have what it takes to last? It seems like Skinz throws away more apprentices than the New York City Sanitation Department. It’s crucial that you and the team of other newbies make a solid impression on your first day at the shop. Show up, do your job, and don’t find yourself snooping around for anything that’s none of your damn business. You got that? If you can survive his apprenticeship longer than the first day, I’m sure it will make for one hell of a good story.

Just finished Pins and Needles and loved it! The clues were very clever and unique and went from fun and light to grossly creepy! Our game guide Austin, aka A Ton, was super fun setting the stage and mood for us.

Very novel clues and loved the evolution into really creepy!

We're Skinz's new apprentices! Pins & Needles was beautifully done. Josh and Tay crafted an excellent game here. Decor was tasteful and immersive, the set was great to experience, and the puzzles gave us reason to explore what we previously brushed over. The level of detail had me feeling quite immersed, and it’s clear the owners cared about the overall experience for each guest. A joy to experience and a must play if you visit Florida. Silver did a great job as our GM!

Wasn’t impressed when we initially arrived. GM was stand-offish and bordering on rude, especially when I explained to him that I was sensitive to scares. When he assumed his character he seemed to improve. However, as someone who does not like horror rooms, this one really wasn’t for me. The puzzles were good and the set & theming was fantastic, but it should be made clear that this has a horror twist. I was reduced to tears and the GM said we should have known as it is clear on the website, however I disagree. Having said all that, if you are ok with scary theming, then I would definitely recommend this room. I can see why it has such high ratings, it’s just not suitable for everyone.

This was such an Incredible experience and one of the most immersive escape rooms I have done. It has immediately taken the spot for my favorite escape room ever. (Sorry Arctic Storm) Austin was SUCH an incredible game master. I was so blown away by every aspect of this room. I can’t wait to try servants of sleight.

Had a lot of fun in this super cool and immersive room. There was so much to do in the 90 minutes we had. Be warned the room does get pretty intense thematically, which might make some more skittish people uncomfortable.
