What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

Very interesting, fun and convenient staff as well. You better learn how to be a good liar though ;D

The Alchemist was great! Ibrahim was a great host, he really tricked us good at the start haha. Also shoutout to our friend Andra who recommended this experience.

Awesome!!!

Amazing escape room but not only the escape room. The whole set up and the game master were just amazing. Big thanks to Sam for the experience and for never dropping the persona

We had so much fun playing the vault and our Game Guide was Great! Definitely coming again for the alchemist!

We had some issues, which will happen anywhere and in the end they made things right.

Of course I can't say too much without spoilers, but I took part in The Vault in a group of 7. The Vault's additional interactive elements absolutely make it different to other escape room experiences. I would love to see what the team could do if they were given free rein to make it even more interactive. It could even define an entire new genre of 'Live action escape room'. For people who are used to escape rooms, The Vault contains the same style of exploration as you'd otherwise expect, drawing on the exact same set of skills and teamwork, but with the additional immersive opportunity to assume a persona to whatever extent you wish, if you'd find that fun. I feel that all the puzzles' solutions were entirely reasonable (we've all experienced 'that one puzzle' in some escape room somewhere which feels like too much of a stretch, right?) Bravo, Sherlocked. I'm going to remember your room for a while.

Its located in the centre of Amsterdam, at a historic building. The session is about 1,5 - 2 hours. Bring yourself, some good (or forthcoming) friends, and enjoy. Take the whole thing serious, and you find yourself in the middle of a movie. Its a lot of fun! Our best decision that weekend visit was to try this concept.

Escape rooms are a newfound passion for us, and we’ve been to a handful in The Netherlands. This one is at the top of our list for several reasons. First, the host was very, very good – he understood the pageantry and atmosphere that is needed with the introduction and back story to the room. Second, the room itself was deeply convincing, and had some highly unique aspects to it that were unexpected. Prior to this room, we only failed to get out of one escape room, and I was really disappointed when that happened (brooding and cranky actually). Well, the third reason this place is at the top of our list is because although we didn’t get out of this one, I didn’t feel disappointed – this room beat us fair and square. There were only two of us, and we just plain ran out of time. We can admit defeat and we give a respectful tip of the hat to this room and declare it better than us. In fact, we had considered doing it again to give this one more shot. If you’re a fan of escape rooms, don’t miss this one.

Wow! We were a team of 5 people and we had a fantastic time with this experience!! Though some of our team had done escape rooms before, there were enough surprises and super-cool aspects to this one that kept us all engaged. We loved the premise, the call to action, the layers of the story, and the unfolding of events. A bit heart-pounding in the best kind of way... I hadn't experienced anything quite this involved and engaging before!
