Mark as done to rate

Deep within the dark recesses of the forests in Oregon lies an evil like no other. A disbarred geneticist named Dr. Vermillion has unleashed a terror that has left a trail of death and destruction in its wake. A once decorated scientist, Vermillion has now been disgraced for conducting immoral experimentations on humans and animals. Seeking revenge for his disbarment, Vermillion has unleashed his brood of giant wolf-like creates onto the town of Fair Oaks. Military and law enforcement efforts have failed as the death toll continues to rise. Deep within these same woods lives a hermit the locals have come to know as The Caretaker. He has no hope to escape the terror that lurks in the woods around him without your help! Move quickly and quietly – as Caretaker’s life depends on it. The Caretaker is one of the hardest and scariest escape rooms in the country and we challenge you to escape when you’re visiting Tampa Florida!

Horrible escape room , stuff was broken and didn’t open after we completed it so we waste so much time thinking we did it wrong and the escape master wasn’t attention to notice we were doing it right and nothing was happening , we asked for hints and he was telling us to do exactly what we did and we told him we did it and it still took forever for him to come in! He also couldn’t open it so we had to wait and it ran our time down for about 10mins! Not recommended

This game was so much fun. We loved the room and the atmosphere and never knew where we were heading next. We will be coming back to try other rooms!

We were blown away by this room. It’s immersive and atmospheric from beginning to end. Props, lighting, sounds, and materials were well chosen and really elevated the feeling of this experience. The room has some cool surprises, and is a little more physically demanding than it initially lets on, which I always find exciting, but can also be treacherous if you are unsteady and in a hurry. I love dark, spooky forest and cabin themes, and this room delivers all that and then some. We did need some hints, as some puzzles require slight leaps in reasoning (the kind of reasoning that would normally be helped along via a written letter or riddle, but instead we eventually had to ask for a hint), but this wasn’t a problem. Some puzzles were somewhat obscurely relevant to the story, but nothing pulled us out of the mysterious mood and dark rustic theme, so that’s a big plus. Overall a very atmospheric, immersive, surprising, and challenging fun room. I appreciate everything that went into making it and I really recommend it!

What a great surprise! This game truly embodies “more than meets the eye”. Right from the get-go upon entering, the mood/set design and entire vibe is perfectly ominous and spooky but inviting. The difficulty of puzzles ramp from medium to very very challenging as the game progresses. With that said, this one is definitely not one for beginners. Seriously. This one is hard. Almost Expert level stuff. We’re talking paying attention to A LOT of hidden, subtle details baked in to every space. Scavenging for hidden and cleverly obscured items, and really thinking outside the box. There many puzzles I’ve never seen before and they were delights. The puzzles in general aren’t impossible but they’re very difficult and you’ll likely want to take advantage of the free hints and clues for the real head scratchers. What makes this really shine is how well everything is realized. Beautiful, moody, cleverly designed spaces that keep you guessing what’s around the corner and constantly surprised with each reveal. You literally have no idea how awesome this gets. Each room has such a fun wow factor. This is up there with some of THE coolest builds we’ve ever seen. We kind of never wanted it to end. Spooky without being terrifying. This room is a great for experienced players looking for a spooky challenge. It’s AWESOME!

We enjoyed this room more than expected, which was nice. It did feel like we were being shuffled in/out, but once inside the room it was fun. They provided lanterns, which was greatly appreciated due to the low light. It was difficult to hear some things because of the ambient sounds, so be sure to let them know if you have hearing issues.

Loved this room- wasn’t very scary in my opinion but did have a creepy theme. Asylum in the same venue was scarier. A couple of different puzzle styles which was fun but the set was the most incredible part of it

Loved this room! Was so good and loved all the puzzles! At the very end one of the puzzles didn’t work and we had to do it again which was frustrating but other than that it is a great escape room you should try
