What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

Did the Architect level with 5 friends of whom 3 had never tried a live escape room before. Everyone was amazed by the amount of detail and role playing that went into this. Really fun and challenging puzzles that will require some great teamwork and will offer lots of laughs. 10/10 would do again!

Had an amazing experience in the Alchemist room. It was very well constructed and had a high quality feel. This was by far the best escape room I have done.

I experienced the Vault escape adventure (escape room doesn't fit as a description) two days ago and I'm under huge impression. I tried escape rooms few times already, they were fine and interesting but I was basically cracking all the mysteries and had very goal-oriented approach. With the Vault the thing is very different! First of all the storyline is perfect, you can really get immersed not only in the puzzles, but the overall experience and you forget about the "real world". It's fun, it's persuasive, you just find yourself being 100% in the story and acting as one of the characters. Secondly, puzzles you face give you challenges and make you stepping on your toes to solve them. Finally - the quality! It was such a pleasure taking part in the experience that was designed with such a commitment to details and solutions used. I really enjoyed how well produced it is and how much it is embedded in Amsterdam's infrastructure. And with that I should say no more, not to share any spoilers ;) Enjoy

This is by far the best immersive experience! The Vault and the Architect are awesome. The Vault is very difficult, so I would caution you to have a good reliable team for this set up. The Architect is pretty straight forward and solvable by most people. The experience is un-paralleled and so much beautiful detail put in every part of the "set". Well worth the money!

Among exclusively exuberant enthusiasm I found one thing that I didn't like about this escape room experience, or about any of the Sherlocked escape rooms: it will be hard to find an escape room that will match this experience. This escape room doubled for me as an art installation, neo-classical architecture visit, craftsmanship-rate "tricks" and movie-like-immersive-experience. People should get married in this room. I just have to say, it wouldn't misstand in an architecture or design magazine. The steam-punk neo-classical vibe merges very neatly with some futurist touches. It brings the theme of mysticism from the past to the future. The games, puzzles, challenges are wonderfully integrated in the decor. And are amazing (dynamic) art pieces in themselves! They were not too easy and luckily (for me) also not too difficult. We were with a group of 5, and everybody was fully occupied continuously, we could really well split up between the different challenges. I like that, it makes me feel I can play again, engaging the elements that were left for others this time over. Recommend 100%. The amazed face with hands in front of her mouth of one of my companions is still imprinted on my retina.

I'll keep my review simple as I wouldn't want to give -anything- away at all, but we had a wonderful time at Sherlocked. Our host was extremely friendly and polite and the room itself was a great puzzle. We managed to escape with only 45 seconds to spare, but we did manage to do it as just a pair. I'd recommend to anyone who fancies giving it a go, it's well worth the time.

This was so fun! I've been to Amsterdam several times and was bored with tourist attractions. I went with a group of five people not really knowing what to expect, but was very pleased when we finished the game. Although we didn't win, we still had a great time and will be back for the opening of the new room. I highly recommend Sherlocked!

Having done a few escape rooms in the U.K., we wanted to do one while we were in Amsterdam for the weekend and were not disappointed. Thankfully the young man who set the scene for the experience spoke perfect English and therefore we were not at a disadvantage at any stage in the game. He was also a very good actor in setting the atmosphere for the room ahead. It was excellent from start to finish and the puzzles were challenging but not too frustrating. Enough hints along the way when needed without spoiling the flow! The venue was very atmospheric and imaginative. Loved it and would thoroughly recommend. Suitable for groups of friends or families with older children but would recommend at least 4 people do it to stand a chance of getting out! We missed out by about 2 mins (as a group of 3) and would have benefited from an extra person’s help. Or maybe we’re just making excuses!

My two colleagues and me were in Amsterdam for the UpTheGame Escape game Convention. Of course we had to play some games... We heard a lot of sherlocked so we booked quite in advance to get a slot. As we run an escape game ourselves we had high expectations and sherlocked did not disappoint us. The quality of storytelling, design and items are extrordinary. We saw some effects we havent seen in a live escape game before and we played a lot. So Big Ups for sherlocked....we highly recommend to play it!!! We played "the architect" and next time in amsterdam we definitely try "vault". Thank you to our game master who did a very good job and the whole sherlocked team for designing such a good game.

It was really really fun! When we arrived there, there was nobody except the lady who gave the instruction to us. She told us that we were the last group. So, it was already exciting. Then we got a clue and we had to start by ourselves from there. The clues were not easy yet still understandable. And fortunately, we made it ;) This game is very very recommended!
