What an experience! Expectations shattered. This isn't an escape room, it's an experience. The fun starts long before you're in any of the many rooms that make up this jolly good time. I only wish I could erase my memory and do it again.

Complete novices - will be back for more!

Neither of us had ever done an escape room and literally trusted the trip advisor reviews by just going for it without any idea of what to expect. Could not have been a better decision - it has easily been the most exciting part of our trip. It is all done to the highest quality - our host was very friendly, setting/props were truly believable and most importantly, we were 100% engaged with it for an hour. Thoroughly recommend if you like a mystery/challenge and have never tried this as it seems from reviews that this is one of the best escape rooms anywhere in the world and we would certainly agree! Thank you

Great fun however quite expensive

Booked this as a suprise for my husbands 40th birthday. Booking was done online from home (scotland) and no problems with this. My enquiries were answered via email quickly. The escape room itself was good fun and our quiz master was friendly and spoke good English which helped! The only down side to this was the price as it was quite expensive. However as it was a special occasion was worth the money. Would recommend doing this as something slightly different!

Fantastic escape room 'The Alchemist', strong overall story and smart physical puzzels for individual parts. Did it with colleagues, a group of 6 in total. The room is big and works well with such a group.

Incredibly fun experience

We arrived there not really knowing what to expect and it turned out to exceed whatever expectations we had by far! Incredibly fun activity to do with friends, we were so hyped solving all the clues that we didn't even pay attention to time pasisng! The place is amazing and all the details in the game are so well done. Totally recommended!

Done them both. both are amazing!

The Architect is the easier one to do. You start in one room and have to get out. Really good experience. The Vault is half an hour longer where you must break into a Vault. This experience was amazing, very exciting and an adrenaline rush! we missed the exit just by 20 seconds..

Fantastic experience, would recommend to anyone

It's not often one starts an Escape Room by trying to find something in a car park down the road, but that sums up The Vault nicely - it's full of stuff you don't expect. The venue is an amazing building, and the staff (with whom you have to interact) superb. The puzzles were hard but doable - and at one point you have to be physically a bit nimble. It was tremendous fun, and at one point the five of us were giggling uncontrollably as we tried to bluff our way past an inscrutable "security guard" with a stream of increasingly outrageous (and scarcely believable) lies. I'd recommend the experience to anyone - it's immensely challenging but great fun.

Amazing experience!!

My experience at Sherlocked was 10/10, I had never tried an escape room before this and I was blown away. The concept, setup and storyline was so thought out and overall left me and my group very impressed and eager to try the other rooms. I would definitely recommend “The Vault” for anyone interested!!!

Absorbing hour

Having done a few escape rooms in the U.K., we wanted to do one while we were in Amsterdam for the weekend and were not disappointed. Thankfully the young man who set the scene for the experience spoke perfect English and therefore we were not at a disadvantage at any stage in the game. He was also a very good actor in setting the atmosphere for the room ahead. It was excellent from start to finish and the puzzles were challenging but not too frustrating. Enough hints along the way when needed without spoiling the flow! The venue was very atmospheric and imaginative. Loved it and would thoroughly recommend. Suitable for groups of friends or families with older children but would recommend at least 4 people do it to stand a chance of getting out! We missed out by about 2 mins (as a group of 3) and would have benefited from an extra person’s help. Or maybe we’re just making excuses!
