Very fun and engaging

With a few small scares and a very fitting ambiance, it was very, very engaging! The puzzles were great fun, with a lot to think about and well timed. Definitely nice to do as a couple!

This was the best escape room I have ever done. It's so difficult for me to not spoil anything, because I'm just so excited! Decor, story, location, everything was on fleek. They really paid attention to all the little details. I hope I can come back soon to do The Architect at Sherlocked.

AMAZING!!!!!

We booked this (called The Architect) as a family of 4 (with our two teenagers aged 15 and 17), having enjoyed an escape room a few years ago in Oxford, and having seen the reviews. Wow!!!! What a brilliant experience! After a brief explanation we were shown into the room, and the following hour was filled with really clever challenges, clues, puzzles and surprises. I can't imagine an escape room done better than this one! I don't want to give anything away but please just book this if you're coming to Amsterdam- you won't be disappointed. We all loved it and can't stop talking about it.

Good fun, brain food

I thoroughly enjoyed this escape room. The puzzles are challenging and you need to cooperate to get some solved.

Fun and well received

Very cool! Our guide really knew how to introduce us in the mood from the moment we met him. We also got some extra time as it wasn’t busy. The escape room is fun - go see for yourself. And kudos to the great personnel and communication both via email and in person.

Best escape room

A year ago we did our first escape room ever at Sherlocked in Amsterdam. The architect room was so clever and immersive; we were immediately hooked. Since then we've done upwards of 70 rooms in a dozen different countries. We were excited to get back to Amsterdam and try The Vault. We weren't disappointed. This room is booked as 90 minutes and it's immersive from the very first minute. It's like being a real life spy or in a movie. The puzzles are difficult and the game requires a little bit of physical "strength" in addition to using your brain. We felt this room was the best we've ever done. The theming alone is incredible. We're looking forward to another room- hopefully soon!

The best escape room EVER!

I've played a number of escape rooms before and Sherlocked (we played The Architect) really blows the rest out of the water. Highly recommended -can't wait to play The Vault :)

The Alchemist is the best escape room I’ve ever done in my life, and I’ve done a lot. My friend and I took a trip to Amsterdam, and we knew we had to take the opportunity to visit Sherlocked. We felt like we were in a movie. The puzzles were fun, just the right amount of challenging, and made sense with the story. And speaking of the story- what an immersive, engaging, and beautiful experience. I’ve never been so swept away by every element of an escape room and it had me completely captivated from start to finish. The quality, the craftsmanship, the creativity- bravo! I only wish I could afford to travel the world more often so I could try all of the other rooms here.

BEST ESCAPE ROOMS WE’VE EVER DONE!!!

Our family (with an 11 and 15 year old) has become obsessed with escape rooms. We love puzzles and being challenged and pride ourselves on having escaped all but one room (one of our first) and we’ve done almost 15 including Florida, Michigan, UK, and now Amsterdam. The two rooms here, The Architect and The Vault, are by far the best rooms we’ve ever done! After escaping The Architect (with barely over a minute to spare), we even changed our train departure to be able to do The Vault. It did not disappoint! Things we loved: Clear story even including some role playing by the hosts to really feel immersive. Huge rooms with a lot of atmosphere making it feel real and more exciting. The location is so cool and makes incredible use of the old building it’s in. Great puzzles with a wide range of types so you aren’t just unlocking 50 combination locks to escape. (We’ve done rooms like that and it gets very annoying and boring quickly). Puzzles that really force the team to work together even doing different things to ensure everyone is involved. Hosts that really make you feel a part of something special (the young gentleman who hosted us on July 19th at 10am for the Vault was absolutely FANTASTIC and we had a blast working with him. I wish I would have gotten his name so I could include it here.). Location is easy to get to in the center of Amsterdam. Cons: Only one: they only have two rooms. I really can’t say enough good things about this place. If you like puzzles, like to be challenged, and want a great time then come here!
