Terrific escape room in the heart of Amsterdam
Sherlocked is located at the Beurs van Berlage which is a five minute walk from Amsterdam Central Station. You will find the entrance at the Beursplein, next to the café opposite to 'de Bijenkorf'. Make yourself known by ringing the bell. The host will pick you up at the door and, after greeting you, will guide you to a place where you can leave all jackets, bags, and valuables. All valuables as well as bags are left in containers which will be locked so don't worry about anything getting stolen. After storing your belongings the host will guide you to the catacombs of the Beurs van Berlage and will tell you the story about the Beurs van Berlage after which the challenge will start. We played The Architect, which was absolutely terrific. The room is decorated beautifully with the decor completely fitting the early 1900s style of the Beurs van Berlage. The puzzles and riddles are not too easy and have been thought out very well. Clues provide hints in a very cryptic manner causing one to really think twice. Opposed to other escape rooms puzzles and riddles are diverse requiring the players to use all their senses. Hints are provided through an old fashioned phone in the room. Puzzles aren't necessarily lineair meaning players can work simultaneously on solving different mysteries. We were with five, which felt like an ideal team size. Unfortunately we did not manage to escape within 60 minutes as we got stuck in the last fiveteen minutes despite being very very close. Escaping, however, isn't impossible within the hour, just be sure to stay calm, think clear and retrace the steps you've taken. According to the host 60% of the players manage to escape within the hour. Despite failing to escape we had the time of our lives. Playing Sherlocked is a great experience and I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a great activity with friends to play this game. We will definitely come back to play The Vault! I think Sherlocked really lives up to its promise of being among the best escape rooms in the Netherlands. Hopefully the portfolio will be expanded beyond The Architect, The Vault and (currently) The Port Game.

Joyful experience
It's been great. All the mechanical instruments of the escape room are so cool, the puzzles are well designed that they are challenging but solvable.The story itself is also fascinating. It also impressed me that we need to made up our backgrounds and stories to fit in the context, cuz it makes me feel I'm really part of it.

I've done both of them and they are both amazing! The Vault was my first Escape Room and I found it really really exciting and challenging, it is a whole real experience out and indoors. The architect it is a bit more traditional escape room but also with amazing atrezzo and decoration, both stories really good built and accurate. You really get into the role and the game as soon as you are in. Highly recommended, the Vault is more difficult than The architect, but even if you don't solve it, there is a great experience waiting for you ;) go go go people go and enjoy!!!!

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.

The Vault is a tough though thouroughly enjoyable escape room-like experience. Roleplay is required.
