We were in the Alchemist with 4 people and at the same time the other 4 people from us, were in the vault. And the groups all agree. It was the best escape room we have ever visited. No matter which one, both were very well thought out and unique in their own way. The story had a common thread from A to Z.

I experienced the Vault escape adventure (escape room doesn't fit as a description) two days ago and I'm under huge impression. I tried escape rooms few times already, they were fine and interesting but I was basically cracking all the mysteries and had very goal-oriented approach. With the Vault the thing is very different! First of all the storyline is perfect, you can really get immersed not only in the puzzles, but the overall experience and you forget about the "real world". It's fun, it's persuasive, you just find yourself being 100% in the story and acting as one of the characters. Secondly, puzzles you face give you challenges and make you stepping on your toes to solve them. Finally - the quality! It was such a pleasure taking part in the experience that was designed with such a commitment to details and solutions used. I really enjoyed how well produced it is and how much it is embedded in Amsterdam's infrastructure. And with that I should say no more, not to share any spoilers ;) Enjoy

Phenomenal

This has been my 2nd escape room, and it looks like it's the best expi have ever had! I loved how the team had to get into characters and play along. My favourite part about the whole experience was that it was a combination of being outside to do something and then going into the vault. I have never had that experience before! So I would recommend people to go and soak in all the experience. Smashing!!

A locked-up adventure beneath one of Amsterdam's most architectural acclaimed buildings

Since they opened their doors (and locked people behind it) we wanted to experience 'the Architect' by Sherlocked Amsterdam. They are number 1 of Amsterdam for a reason! I always think it is very important that an escape room's theme is chosen because of its surroundings and by what the existing building is trying to tell with its looks and feel. The Architect uses the historical background of the beautiful Beurs van Berlage building in a believable but mysterious way. We played the room with 6 friends and all of us had a part in solving the bigger picture. Without knowing we actually set a new time record!!! We can't wait to play the second adventure (The Vault) that Sherlocked has in store for us with hopefully many other top quality mysterious assignments to follow!

Great experience, great location, so much fun. We have done quite a few escape games and the Vault is one of the best escape games we have done.

Best escape room ever!

My friends and I chose to do ‘The Architect’ last week and it was honestly so fantastic. Our host was lovely and made the experience much more special and the room itself was fantastic. You can tell a lot of thought has been put into the detailed journey this escape room takes you on :) Bonus: we managed to escape!

The best escape experience I’ve ever done, the immersion is high, with elements that I’ve never seen before in escape rooms. Genuinely thrilling. Were visiting from NZ for only 4 days and did this and it was one of the highlights of our trip!

Best "escape" room ever.

The best escape room I have ever done. We did “The Vault”, which is not your traditional escape room. Rather than trying to escape, you are trying to break in. Unlike most escape rooms, this one is interactive with the uses of walkie talkies and other other items. Other than that, I can’t say anything else or it will ruin the experience. Although we didn’t “win”, we will be back to finish were we left off. This is a must do and is worth every penny.

The Architect is great for teams of two!

This was the first time that my girlfriend and I tried an escape room and even with just a team of two it was great fun. I think that it was quite well-pitched. The puzzles were challenging, but not so difficult that you left feeling stupid. The staff know just when to redirect you if they see that you are stuck for a while. We were not successful in the end, but the staff were very friendly and made us feel positive and like we had done well. Lots of fun, and highly recommended.
