Escape U - Adventure Games & Escape Rooms

Located on State Road 16, Escape U offers unique and memorable experiences in their three escape rooms. Just a short drive from St. Augustine's historic district at 525 SR 16 (Unit 104), Escape U is a fun activity for families and groups.

Keep your wits about you using strategy and clues to beat the clock and escape. Use investigative skills to find hidden clues such as a lock that fits the special key, or the container that works with the password, or the code phrase that gets an informant to tell a secret. Your party works together as a team to complete the challenge in under one hour.

Escape U presents three games, from a revolving list with locations ranging from a 17th century fort, to an old jail and asylum, and more. Every game is suitable for all ages and you can upgrade for a private experience. All games meet ADA guidelines and are wheelchair accessible.

The current three challenges at Escape U are Save the Fleet, The Sneaky Snake Lounge, and Old Jail. Each room combines storytelling, technology, and puzzle design to immerse guests in challenges.

Old Jail

In this Escape Room, you become tourists "visiting" the Old Jail. Upon discovering a document that describes how a prisoner had been framed, you're transported back to St. Augustine in the 1920s—locked in the jail as framed prisoners. Will you solve the puzzles and return to current century St. Augustine? To do so, you must escape the jail and retrieve the magic file from the sheriff's office.

This adventure is suitable for two to eight players, has a difficulty of nine out of 10, and a scare level of zero out of 10. It takes an hour.

The Sneaky Snake Lounge

Travel back to the 1920's in this Escape Room and attend the most popular speakeasy in town, but your party isn't out for the fun. You're a rival gang, owners of a speakeasy that lost business when the sneaky snakes came to town and you want to put the Sneaky Snake Lounge out of business for good. Will the informant be truthful? Will you succeed in sending the sneaky snakes to the city line?

This adventure is for two to eight players, has a difficulty of seven out of 10, and a scare level of zero out of 100.

Save the Fleet

Experience a hurricane as you work to make landfall near the lighthouse in order to climb to the top and activate the beacon—saving the lives of hundreds of sailors. This room includes a 15-foot replica of the lighthouse and keeper's house to add to the authenticity.

This adventure is for two to eight players, has a difficulty of six out of 10, and a scare level of four out of 10. It takes an hour.
