challenging and amazing experience!

We were three friends who booked the Architect room. We've tried out some escape rooms prior to this, but nothing has compared so far! The whole experience was thoroughly enjoyable - with everything from the friendly hosts to the meticulous details in the room, to the emotional rollercoaster well tuned to the storyline. You won't want to leave even when you've succeeded the mission ;) Highly recommended!

Incredibly immersive, fun and nerve wracking!

I didn't have a clue what to expect from the Vault when I was told I would be doing it. I always wondered how escape rooms could really work as an experience - I always though it was just puzzles you had to solve to get out. Well - yes and no! While there were plenty of puzzles, it was made an experience by the people involved in the organisation of the Vault who made us almost instantly feel like we were actually part of the story - scared, happy, incredibly nervous, and all on cue. If you want to step out of your world and into a story in which you're the hero (hopefully), then step into the Vault!

They don't tell you when the clock starts

The puzzles in the room were really nice, we enjoyed the theme as well. Unfortunately they didn't tell us when the time of 80 minutes started. We expected this to start after the introduction, but this wasn't the case. We asked when we arrived if it was possible to use the restroom (after a long trip to get there) and even this was all in the window of time we had to escape. We wished they would have told us that because then we would have done things totally differently. It was only after half of our time was already gone that we entered a room with the usual timer/clock with how much time was left. This was unfortunate because it meant we didn't get to finish the room. Besides that we liked the electronic aspects of the room and the decor.

The best escape room experience

This was defenitely the best escape room experience I ever had. Complex puzzles, scary effects, secret chambers, everything was there. Brilliant experience. We had so much fun with our team.

Awesome experience but poor staff

The staff were really nice, but at one point, we were stuck. They gave us hints that led us to something we already found. They weren't paying attention I guess. Kind of disappointing. Not to mention that we were going at a speed that wasn't as fast as possible or panicky because we knew that we had 12 minutes left, but just then, the operator person called and said sorry your time is up. ???!?!! They said that "sometimes" the clock resets itself... Thanks for the heads up! It was really fun and would do another escape room again. Glad we did it, but too bad we were misled.

Do not miss this Wonderful Adventure

We were a group of 6. My husband and I, two 9 year olds, a 12 year old and their granny. We did the architect. The whole experience was wonderful. Everyone considered it an Amsterdam highlight. Having done 2 escape rooms in Budapest previously we considered this the best we'd experienced to date. The girls who briefed us before and afterwards was incredibly welcoming and encouraging and contributed hugely to the whole experience. This is a fantastic activity for young and old. Don't miss it!!

Clever Subversion of Escape Room

We did the Vault and it was excellent. We had to 'Break In' rather than 'Break Out', so it was a clever twist on the usual escape room. The production quality is excellent and you are really immersed in the world as it takes place in multiple locations.

We were in the Alchemist with 4 people and at the same time the other 4 people from us, were in the vault. And the groups all agree. It was the best escape room we have ever visited. No matter which one, both were very well thought out and unique in their own way. The story had a common thread from A to Z.
