Have you noticed that holiday decorations are starting to appear in the stores? It can’t be! It’s only July! Yet the holidays will be here before you know it. If you’re like me, my “to do” list around November and December gets longer and longer. One of my tasks is to plan a great holiday party, but it can be difficult to find the perfect venue. If you are looking for something new and fun for your holiday party, why not consider “escaping” at Escape Countdown!

At Escape Countdown we can accommodate parties for 50 or more guests. We have a party room, and can provide beverages and appetizers to meet any budget.

Under the Big Top opens at Escape Countdown Sarasota! Sarasota’s Escape Rooms!

Sarasota, FL. July 8 2016 – A new escape game has opened at Escape Countdown, and it draws on Sarasota’s rich circus heritage as its inspiration. Under the Big Top is a circus themed escape game, and is the newest game in town!

Escape Countdown is a fully immersive entertainment experience. You and your team will be “locked” in The Big Top, and you must make observations, solve puzzles and use critical thinking skills to escape. The only catch is you only have 60 minutes to solve the puzzles and ESCAPE the Big Top!

Escape games are a new form of live entertainment that is sweeping across the United States, and has been featured in several TV shows including The Big Bang Theory. The games require team work, communication and a sense of adventure that challenge your ability to think quickly while racing against the clock. Escape games are perfect for players of all ages, and groups of 2-50. Escape Countdown Sarasota offers team building, family and group outings, and birthday party packages.

In addition to Under the Big Top, Escape Countdown offers three more escape games including Jail Break, Mad Hatter and An Evening in Paris. Escape Countdown opened its doors in February 2016, and is located at 6525 S Tamiami Trail in Sarasota. For more information contact Renee Ryckman @ 502-409-1875

One Tank Trip – The ladies of Tampa Fox 13 got locked up!

Jeremy Rice — Fri, 08 Apr 2016 16:01:28 +0000

We had the pleasure of having Good Day Tampa bay One Tank Trip stop by and learn what escape rooms and Escape Countdown are all about!

TAMPA (FOX 13) – The Good Day girls decided to switch things up for this month’s One Tank Trip.

Rather than sending one person out for an excursion, they decided to join forces for a group outing that actually landed them locked in…and locked up!
That’s right! In orange jumpsuits and all- Laura Moody, Jennifer Epstein, Vanessa Ruffes and Taylor Katz were thrown behind bars, and given just one hour to break free.

It was all part of the fun new trend of interactive escape rooms, and took place at Escape Countdown on Kennedy Boulevard.

The company offers a choice of themed rooms- An Evening in Paris, Escape from Gaspar Island, Mad Hatter, and Jail Break.

Based on the mug shots and the opportunity to wear those gorgeous orange jumpsuits, the girls decided jail break was their best bet.

After suiting up, they were told they’d been charged for stealing the Super Bowl trophy from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and that they’d have an hour to escape from their cell, break into the warden’s office, hack into his computer, delete their mug shots and then break free.

They had to crack secret codes, solve puzzles, think critically and – most importantly –work together as a team to succeed.

And with just about four minutes left on the clock, that’s just what they did!
