Although much of Jacksonville is urban, this sprawling northeastern Florida city also has nature and wildlife preserves, historic residential neighborhoods and lots of golf courses. Attractions in Jax, as the locals call it, range from art, science and history museums to a brewery tour, from the Jacksonville Landing entertainment complex, along the St. John's River, to Bronson Motor Speedway. The city's beaches offer soft sand and warm water perfect for swimming, surfing and kayaking.

There were three of us and we were very close, but did not escape. The selection was perfect as it was in a dorm room setting, and our 23 year old grandson was visiting. Loved the company, they were very friendly and helpful.

Video Game Rescue

VIDEO GAME RESCUE is Jacksonville's premiere video game store & ARCADE! We are the #1 source for retro consoles, games, accessories, toys, memorabilia & MORE! VGR, a brick-and-mortar game store, was started by husband and wife team, Dustin and Deanna Gartenbush. The idea behind venue was actually started many years prior. With just a dream and a very supportive community, Dustin quit his full-time job in late 2012 and decided to make the ultimate gamer venue a reality. In November 2014 the NEFL gaming community came together and crowdfunded the FIRST retro arcade in Jacksonville. In the #VGRcade, you can play your favorite console games and throw back a few quarters in our classic arcade. We believe that just because a game is old, doesn't mean that it isn't worth playing! From old school to new-gen, we cater to every brand of gamer. Support your local game store, and help "Bring an Old Friend Back to Life!"

I have done over 20 escape rooms from Boston, Chicago, San Diego, and Portland, and I had the most fun here at Escape Game Jacksonville. The production quality is a huge part of what makes an escape room fun and this place has SUPER high quality rooms. I can only speak for The Heist and Gold Rush, but I suspect you'll love ANY room they have to offer. Can't wait to go back and do Prison Break!!
