Brilliant experience today! Well thought out room and story. The host was nice and made sure we had an awesome time even before entering :)

Sher-mazing!

Fab fab fab! I suggested this to my husband to do for his birthday as he had previously been to an escape room on his stag. It was fantastic! Very well thought out and you can really immerse yourself in the whole experience. The staff are approachable and very believable in the story the lay out too. It really gets you thinking and was a great way to spend an hour working as a team with my hubby- got to keep his brain ticking over now he's the ripe old age of 32! Would definitely recommend a visit!

Good room. Terribly run

Turned up for the room on our second day of holiday very excited after reading the reviews. When we arrived another group was already waiting and fifteen minutes after we were meant to start that group was taken to the room. Ten minutes after that (and getting no answer from the contact number given) someone finally arrived to tell us they had double booked and they couldn't give us our experience that day. It was reorganised for our last day of holiday. The morning of our new experience we were phoned and told they couldn't fit us in that day and we would have to do their other, shorter room. Shorter room was well themed and fun until one of the props didn't work and the guy obviously wasn't paying attention because he kept giving us clues for puzzles we had already solved. After he finally realised what was wrong he had to come into the room and fix it for us. Barely gave us any money back even after all those problems and even though they originally said they would take us for drinks after to apologise as soon as we finished we were given the cold shoulder. Other reviewers don't seem to have these problems so maybe you will be lucky but this was honestly the worst escape room experience I have ever had and the constant problems really put a damper on the holiday.

Great Experience, but pricey

I had a fantastic time doing this my last night in Amsterdam. It was challenging, and great sober fun. I was with two friends and didn't have to suspend disbelief too much because it was so well put together. But I really wish it wasn't so expensive because it was a stretch to be able to afford it, as a friend booked and told me how much it cost afterword.

Wow wow wow OMG WOW!

I’ve played close to 100 escape rooms around the world and confidently say this is the absolutely most amazing one by FAR! I really don’t want to go into detail because everything that makes it unique would be spoiled if I explained it. At last, though, a realistic escape room whose story makes perfect sense and actually creates an incredibly real and immersive experience. WOW

The Alchemist escape room was one of the best escape rooms I've ever experienced. The attention to detail, the intricate and VERY unique puzzles, the bespoke "set design", and the intelligent mix of technology was remarkable. I have done many escape rooms all over the world and this one was so unique. I felt that I was able to lose myself in the game and that the puzzles were challenging but not impossible. The experience was multisensory, another aspect that I've rarely experienced in an escape room. This is a gem!

Absolutely Brilliant!

The amount of work that they've and continue to put into this escape room is staggering, after each session they need up to 2 hours to reset the room for the next group. Some contraptions are so detailed and the location fits perfectly! Would recommend this to absolutely everyone!

A lot of mystery

We had great fun puzzling together unravelling the mysteries. Really enjoyable. Great location too. No time to relax

Mysteriously fun!

If you're visiting the city, or even are a local, with a group of people you want to have fun with, this experience is a no brainer. So entertaining that you'll be sad when the time is over. But no worries, there's a prize at the end if you did well! :)
