The architect vs The vault

I have done both the rooms at Sherlocked. The architect was very good and very enjoyable. The game was well designed with a nice mix of puzzles. For this room I would say 5 stars for sure. For the vault I was very disappointed. The room is trying to be different so I can appreciate the designers took a risk but it just didn't work. There also seemed to be a few red herrings that caused confusion more than anything else. Of all the rooms I've done (over 10) this was the least enjoyable room. In conclusion my advice is 100% to do the architect but I would not recommend the vault.

We could not recommend ‘The Vault’ experience any more highly. From the initial intrigue and excitement leading up to the ‘mission’, to the moment the experience begins, there is an unparalleled sense of immersion. Through a series of puzzles, challenges and role-playing we were captivated and brought into another world. Sherlocked has spared no attentional to detail and the calibre of acting, venue and production all come together to solidify this as one of the best experiences out there - not to be missed!

Amazing

I have never been to anything like this before and from start to finish it was a blast! We were 4 adults with one young adult 14 year old (who was the best of course) and we had so much fun. It is money well spent and now we are all hooked on puzzle rooms. Thanks Sherlocked!

Awesome escape

It was very nicely done. The staff is nice and the decor is great. Pretty much all puzzles/mechanisms work well and the level of difficulty is high but doable. All in all a cool adventure if you want to do something different and at the same time you get to visit a cool piece of characteristic architecture of Amsterdam.

The Vault is by far the best escape room I've been to in The Netherlands. A thrilling and sometimes extremely challenging expedition into the oldest underground historic vaults of Amsterdam. Lot's of 'real feel', history, time pressure, and great acting. Only 15% of teams makes it out in time, guess our team was one of the lucky few!!! Can't wait to try the other room, The Architect, too.

Loved the experience!!

Our family (4 adults) had a one night lay-over in Amsterdam. What to do? We found Sherlocked on Trip Advisor. We were captivated from the first moment we entered the room. It took all of us to solve the room. We did escape but with only 3 minutes to spare! This was a super fun experience for the entire family. Highly recommend it!!

A great time in the heart of Amsterdam

Sherlocked is a super fun escape from the bustle of the city. It's an escape room, with two difficulty options, the Architect, and the Heist. We played the Architect, and it was great fun. You'll need to think literally, as well as outside the box. It's great fun. If you have experience with escape rooms, perhaps try the Heist, as we found the Architect a little easy, but it was a lot of fun. Communication is key!

Well worth it

It was a very pleasant experience and a very challenging one. I have tried several escape rooms in the past but this escape room really stands out as the best i've tried. I will definitely give it another go when I visit Amsterdam in another time.

really bad experience

we have more than 30 rooms on our records, this was the worst one. we cane 10 min before time we got inside after short briff. we ask for hints which we didnt get and after 59 min exactly he came inside and got us out from the room. he didnt even want to tell us what we miss in the room (we miss at least 2 rooms inside). not worth the money at all
