What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

Absolutely amazing. Definitely worth the money and the time. Even my shy sibling had a good time!

So I had the pleasure of doing the architect escape room at Sherlocked. You have to try to escape the room by solving al kinds of puzzles and riddles. It's nice to do this with a group of at least 4 (we were with the six of us). You get one hour to get out, and if succeeded you get a nice small souvenir and your picture taken afterwards. It's really a cool experience and we've already planned our next visit to do the other experience they have. A must see/do! :D

I hadn't done an escape room experience before, but two of the friends I went with had. They agreed this was better than their previous experiences. We loved the look and story of the scenario! It was challenging (we weren't successful despite a promising start) but not frustrating. The elements were interesting and varied and clever, plus the site is a cool historic building. Staff were very welcoming and engaging. I didn't book the event, but the friend who did seemed to have a very easy time.

After over 500 rooms, I have a new favorite game - Sherlocked's The Alchemist. The set design, technology, and special effects, are all woven together to create an experience that is designed to inspire wonder. If I was rating the room on puzzles alone, it would already be an above-average escape room. They are a nice medium level of difficulty -- non-trivial, but not so complex as to be tedious or frustrating. We solved them as a team of 2 players without issue. Many of the solutions result in very satisfying payoffs, and are well integrated into the story. I was practically in tears at the beauty of the finale. The Alchemist stands head and shoulders over the hundreds of other games I've played all around the world.

Very well thought out. Ceasar was a great host! Only thing I can think of saying is to make it a longer experience.

We did this for my friends 40th birthday, group aged 34 to 54. It was so real...and difficult for us. The staff play their roles so well, we never knew what was real and what not. We were nervous even when we entered! Unfortunately we couldn't 'solve the mystery' but it was one of our best activities is Amsterdam. Easy to reach from Centraal Station, and close to great shopping.

So much thought has gone into these experiences coming from exceptionally creative, clever people. We did a few team events here and it brought out a fun competitive spirit in the team. The guys who usually win everything came in last. :-) Really, truly a lot of fun and a not to be missed experience if you are spending a few days in Amsterdam.

A group of friends from work and I went on March 14th and was scheduled for 4pm. It started in the car park across the street, and from there, it was an absolute rush!!!!! Ilya was such an awesome host and all the crew remained in character so well!! This was my first visit and definitely not the last! Go check this place out!

I booked this as a surprise for my wife who enjoys puzzles and mysteries. The TripAdvisor reviews were very positive so I had high expectations which I'm pleased to say were comfortably met. Our host was very friendly and set the scene well for our chosen mystery, the Architect. The difficulty level was about right - we successfully solved most of the challenges, with a couple of helpful nudges from our host, though stumbled close to the end. The setting and attention to detail was excellent and really created a believable atmosphere. While more participants might have helped us solve it faster, it should be well within the capabilities of a couple who pay attention to everything being said and -- most important -- remember to communicate everything, especially if separated! Highly recommended!

Very hard . staff was helping otherwise we would be stuck on first riddle
