What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

The Alchemist was my first ever escape game, and it’s putting the level very high. I had so much fun that I totally lost track of time. I loved every inches of the experience: the storyline, the marvelous set design, all of the challenges were super playful and intriguing with a sparkle of magic wonder. For the fans of Harry Potter, you shall go!

I did the escape-room exercise at the Sherlocked venue in Amsterdam last week as a team building exercise and I was thoroughly impressed by every aspect of the way it was planned. Our hostess, Tanja, set the background story out with great enthusiasm before we entered the escape room. She was detailed in her explanation and prepared to answer our questions about the mystery without throwing away hints. Then we entered the room and found it extremely well planned and accurate to the last detail. Every last object and mark in the room was put in there after due thought and served a purpose. The antiques in the room helped further establish the storyline - and from sounds to smells - it was all there to get us engulfed in the mystery. The level of difficulty was just right - not so hard that hardly anyone solves it, and not as easy that it may be solved within 15-20 mins. Great for team building or just some fun with friends! Highly recommended, well done to the creators!

There is a lot of international hype about Sherlocked’s The Vault. I tried to keep my expectations a bit lower not to be dissapointed, but it turned out it was absolutely unnecessary. The Vault is mindblowing, extraordinary experience that does not even deserve to be called “Escape room”, because it so much more! From the first moment, you are caught into an immersive story that will not let you go until you are done. Pre- and post- game experience is second to none. The space where the game takes place is utterly unique and you will not see anything like it anywhere else. Sherlocked is simply a must for anyone who is travelling to Amsterdam. This is not an Amsterdam’s escape room. This is Amsterdam’s landmark.

Participated with a good group of friends in what was personally my first escape room experience here with Sherlocked, and I was very positively surprised. The setting, staff and storyline grab you from the moment you walk in, and the puzzles are clever and satisfying. Expect many "Eureka" moments :) Can highly recommend this to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience w a group of puzzle-minded (Zelda-fan) friends!

Absolute must to experience when visiting Amsterdam. Great to do with friends, family or co-workers. We did "The Vault", nice thing about it is that it's with live actors and you are right in the middle of it. Games and puzzles are for everyone alike and sometimes very challenging. Would really recomend anyone to try it out. Game on!

Brilliant experience today! Well thought out room and story. The host was nice and made sure we had an awesome time even before entering :) Can't really tell to much else as I don't want to spoil the experience for others.

Having loved "the architect " we were excited to try the new room. What starts out great quickly turns in to disappointment when inside. There's not a nice flow between puzzles and the instructions are being given by a walkietalkie which is often not easy to understand. This game is clearly still in beta phase but even if they solve the bugs the puzzles still came over as uninspired to us. Sherlocked the architect is still one of the best I've ever played but for now you should skip the vault.

What a great experience! First of all, the escape room is beautiful and has a lot of details. The game is an amazing experience. You have to collaborate as a team. While making progress, the game will amaze the players more and more. The difficulty is quite good. The game requires more instinct and 'thinking different', then general knowledge. When you're stuck in the game, a telephone is available to get hints. This means that you can get the full experience of the game, which is great. The staff is awesome! The game is available in Dutch and English, which is perfect. I'd definitely recommend this game to everyone!

Yesterday night we were locked inside a beautiful 19th century room. With artifacts, clues, riddles etc. We had a bit over an hour to get out and it was an unforgettable hour! (I went to bed with images of the quest we have forfilled, and woke up with my head trying to get round the last clues!) We needed the different skills the people of our group had, to find our way out. I can recommend this magnificent hour for any kind of group. Colleagues, friends, family!

The best escape rooms host in AMS. Thanks!
