Frequently Asked Questions About Gamers Excape Gainesville
What is an Escape Room?
An escape room is a themed, interactive adventure game where players work together to solve puzzles, decipher clues, and accomplish tasks within a set time limit to "escape" from a room. It typically involves teamwork, critical thinking, and creativity to unravel the storyline and progress through the challenges presented.
What is Axe Throwing?
Axe throwing is a recreational activity and competitive sport where participants throw axes at a wooden target, aiming to hit the bullseye and score points. Similar to darts but on a larger scale, axe throwing combines precision, technique, and a bit of strength. It’s a popular activity for date nights, group outings, team-building events, and bachelor or bachelorette parties.
What is a Rage Room?
A rage room, also known as a smash room or anger room, is a controlled environment where people can release stress and frustration by breaking objects like glassware, electronics, and furniture. These rooms are equipped with protective gear and tools such as baseball bats, crowbars, or hammers, allowing participants to safely destroy items.
Rage rooms are often used as a unique form of stress relief, anger management, or simply for fun and entertainment. They’ve become popular for group activities, team-building events, and even unconventional celebrations like birthdays or bachelor/bachelorette parties.
Is there an Age Requirement to Play a Rage Room?
The minimum age is 9 years old. Ages 9 to 15 must have a parent or legal guardian inside the room with them. Ages 16 and 17 may enter with parent or guardian permission (waiver required).
What is a Splatter Room?
A splatter room is a creative space where people can throw paint at walls, canvases, or each other to create abstract art in a fun, messy, and stress-free environment. Guests wear protective gear and use paintbrushes, squeeze bottles, or even their hands to splash and splatter paint however they like.
Splatter rooms are popular for date nights, family outings, birthday parties, and team-building activities. They offer a unique way to express creativity, relieve stress, and make memorable art without worrying about the cleanup. Try our exclusive glow-in-the-dark splatter option to level up your experience!
Is My Escape Room Private?
All rooms are private, meaning when you make a booking, it will only be you and your party inside the room! Whether it's two or eight players, you will never play with strangers at Gamers Excape.
What Do I Do Once I Book an Activity?
Your waivers must be filled out before you participate in any of our activities. You will sign your waivers in-person, but make sure your entire team completes them!
**Please show up 15 minutes before your game start time in order for our staff to check your party in and get your activity started at the right time.**
What Does a Premium Escape Room Experience Include?
Premium escape room upgrades are a great choice at Gamers Excape! Not only does a premium room elevate your playthrough, but includes physical mementos, extra puzzles, and more surprises individual to the room you book!
What Does "Difficulty Level" Mean?
We rank our escape rooms on a difficulty level out of 10. The lower the number out of 10, the easier the room, and vise-versa.
"Easy" escape rooms would be recommended for younger audiences and newer teams. Experienced teams and older audiences would be better suited for our "harder" rooms. Please remember you are always welcome to play the room that appears the most fun regardless of difficulty level! If you are unsure of the best escape room suited for your party, please give us a call.
