A unique escape room in a monumental building

We tried the Architect room as a group of 3 and certainly had a lot of fun. The escape room itself is set within the beautiful, historical Amsterdam Stock exchange building. The puzzles were varied and very interesting. Our host, Sam was also very friendly. Overall, a memorable experience and we’ll be back for the Vault!

This was the best escape room I have ever done. It's so difficult for me to not spoil anything, because I'm just so excited! Decor, story, location, everything was on fleek. They really paid attention to all the little details. I hope I can come back soon to do The Architect at Sherlocked.

Had my heart racing!

I went with a group of 4 total to do The Vault and we all loved it. I was quite nervous about the experience after receiving the pre-break in information, but once the experience began it became so immersive immediately that all my nerves about it were translated into other emotions (excitement, adrenaline, nerve-wracking...). There has clearly been so much work put into and it is unlike any other escape room I have done. The staff members contribute well with their great acting and they really feel part of the scenario. The actual room is amazing, really well made (although I appreciate some of its charm is due to it being an actual original vault under the city) to seem authentic. It is challenging, with a good variety of challenges (problem-solving, organisation, communication, even physical!) which keeps the whole team involved. The staff do give hints but I think their level of involvement was appropriate. We didn’t manage to break in. My only bug bear was that this was partly due to part of the Vault being difficult to open, as it is part of the original structure, but I also understand this is important for the authenticity so I don’t really mind. Would 100% recommend as must-do in Amsterdam.

Fun, challenging, and very well-designed!

I hadn't done an escape room experience before, but two of the friends I went with had. They agreed this was better than their previous experiences. We loved the look and story of the scenario! It was challenging (we weren't successful despite a promising start) but not frustrating. The elements were interesting and varied and clever, plus the site is a cool historic building. Staff were very welcoming and engaging. I didn't book the event, but the friend who did seemed to have a very easy time.

We did The Vault as a group of 4 and we finished it with seconds to spare. It is an amazing experience, definitely not a classic, conventional escape room. Probably the best escape room in Amsterdam and one of the best in the world.

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

My friends and I booked the Late Night Alchemist and it was sooooo much fun, couldn't recommend it more. Such a high-end escape room, the story, the puzzles, the workers everything was perfect.

Best escape room we've done so far

We've been to three escape rooms so far, and this one is our favorite. The room is larger than any of the other rooms we've been in, and there were also many more puzzles than the other rooms we tried. The decor is incredibly detailed and immersive, the puzzles used some really innovative mechanisms, and the story was really nicely woven into the puzzle. The staff were also really nice and helpful with hints, but weren't pushy about them! It was so much fun! Definitely do this if you're in Amsterdam and like puzzles!
