About Can You Escape?
Can You Escape? is Tampa’s #1 escape game provider. The company, just under three-years-old, boasts one of the largest escape room venues in the world, hosting up to 75 people per hour and currently operating 9 rooms, plus three mobile games. The venue offers team building for groups, fun for families and friends and bonding opportunities for groups of all sizes. Their room offerings include: Escape from the Office, Escape from London, The Medieval Adventure, Trapped in a Room with a Zombie and now, From Russia With... The concept of escape rooms, also called puzzle rooms or real-live escape games, evolved into live action games from computer and video games. Teams are locked inside fully-themed rooms and typically have one hour to find the clues, solve the puzzles and figure out a way to open the door. Their popularity exploded so suddenly that TripAdvisor has had to change their algorithms several times because the games were ranking higher than international landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, the British Museum, and the Statue of Liberty.
