What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

Still buzzing from excitement, this was an amazing experience! We did the Alchemist room, the production value is insane, 100% worth the money. Staff slayed, thank you :))

This experience was absolutely worth it! A perfect blend of puzzles and suspense and riddles made the time fly by! You definitely need to stay calm and think...some things can be a bit challenging. Pay close attention to your surroundings and to what your teammates are saying/finding. There is no way you will regret this! We started with The Architect and are already planning our visit to their second room!

Nice room! We went with 6 people and everyone had things to do. I don’t have a lot of experience but this was one of the nicer rooms I have been in.

We did the heist at Beursplein, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The decoration was really good and the overall experience was very exciting. They could've toned down a bit the roleplaying though. The questions the actresses fired at us (who invited us, what we were doing there, who we were, etc.) became a bit tedious at some point, especially after we had already lost the game. However, they were great sports and were kind enough to tell us all about the game and take a few pictures of the group afterwards. I'd really recommend this and I look forward to doing the other experiences.

Leuke kamer helaas viel Armin kamer zwaar tegen. Daar hadden we met van verwacht. De architect was super.

Well thought out escape rooms. Both of them are remarkable. Staff is friendly, professional and are great actors.

Amazing experience. Immersive escape room where you have to do more than only solve a few puzzles to finish it. There is also some human interaction with other people involved which make it more enjoyable than a 'regular' escape room. If you're in Amsterdam, I would highly recommend this escape room!

My husband and I are driving through Europe and we did our first escape room in Hamburg two days ago and we were hooked! So with roughly 20 hours to spend in Amsterdam, we thought we’d try another escape room. It was worth every penny! We picked Sherlocked based on TripAdvisor reviews. Despite being number 3 overall (at the moment!), it had over 1,000 reviews and over 900 were excellent. Also, the reviews indicated that the experience involved more puzzles rather than an endless series of lock combinations, which really appealed to us. Our game master, Armando, greeted us at the door and did a great job telling the story and getting us into character with his clever tale of secret societies and hidden rooms. His English was phenomenal and his story telling skills were excellent. There was no role playing, per se. The background story served to explain the purpose of the room, but it wasn’t silly or stupid at all. The puzzles were fun and varied. There were some classic pattern recognition games, but there were also a variety of really creative games that involved using all five of our senses! I won’t say more for fear of spoiling it, but we highly recommend this room. It was challenging and we didn’t finish (got stuck on one clue for the last 10 minutes or so), but we really enjoyed the ones we did solve. It is hard to manage your time well with only 2 people, and we were told the success rate for groups of 2 is 15 to 20 percent and we were apparently 80 percent finished, so we felt good about our efforts!! I’d imagine this would be even more fun with 3 or 4 people. p.s. I went back and read the “terrible” and “poor” reviews and the majority appear to be old so my assumption is that they don’t apply because ours was neither confusing nor a role playing game and our game master could not be more pleasant or polite.

Outstanding experience ! A must do ! Don’t hesitate to book this immersive experience here in Amsterdam We didn’t know what to expect when we started the ‘game’ in a car park. Really enjoyed this

Really bad experience. We've done many escape rooms around the world, and this by far is THE WORST experience. To start: We waited 20 minutes to be let in by the host. The game: Lack of instructions made the game not fun. Not to mention that we had a health emergency during the game, knocking on all doors and no one responded. Just terrible experience. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the reviews are FAKE.
