This was a really fun experience and a different type of date night. I wish they explained more about the murderer at the end but it was still a great experience.

Like an escape room. The room is Tampa.

Escape rooms are genuinely good. They also want a slot booked days ahead and a fixed hour. This is the version you can decide on at 7pm: outdoors, across 2 km of Tampa.
