Play the leading role in your own heist movie!

Really unique and fun escape (or break-in ) experience! Expect the traditional scape game experience to be spiced up with some roleplay and live actors. While this might not be everyone's cup of tea, we thought this really created a fantastical and immersive experience that allows you to take the leading role in your own personal heist movie! Highly recommended!

Amazing, Fantastic, Brilliant

We did "The Vault". The premise was very convincing. the actors were top notch. It was very challenging, and we were at the last hurdle when we ran out of time, but later we were told that this is one the most difficult challenges in Europe. We still loved it although we did not finish.

This is the hardest in the Netherlands and the building is just amazing with all original features.

Really fun experience.

We booked the Architect experience while spending New Year in Amsterdam. We had a really enjoyable time. The staff member explained everything really well. It’s really well planned and we would highly recommend this as a fun way to spend time with family and friends. You can see a clock ticking the minutes down and at times I thought we wasn’t going to escape .. but we did it in the end it felt really rewarding to work everything out as a team.. we would definitely do more in the future.

One of the best

Look no further than Sherlocked for a one-of-a-kind escape the room. It was so authentic and unique. We have done about a dozen escape the room and this is by far the best ever. So fun and the next time we are in Amsterdam we will book The Vault for sure.

Experienced Escapees Take On The Vault

My family (my parents, 25 year old brother & his girlfriend) and I (22) have done somewhere between 15-20 escape rooms around the world, and all of us agree that this—the Vault— was our all time favorite. It was the perfect mix of physical searching and mental problem solving/games. It was also the right amount of linear in terms of moving from one clue to the next, which allowed everyone to be able to participate while still forcing us to all work together. There was also a little bit of role play involved, which they take as seriously as you do—we (and by that I mean mostly I) fully committed, but they rolled with the punches when we got the giggles at the end. The Vault’s storyline is rather unique the deeper you dive into the story (we also loved the pre-game interactions) and the location/set is incredible. I definitely recommend downloading the app they send you and playing the game ahead of time as it prepares you for the types of physical locks that you will be opening in the room. We were able to get out— the escape rate is 20%— and are proud members of the crossed keys club! Thank you so much again to Joella and Tom for an epic experience!

Great way to spend a day in Amsterdam!

Fun, challenging, and exciting, the folks behind the "Sherlocked" escape rooms in Amsterdam have done it right! They have two experiences to choose from: The Vault, which is a break-in, and The Architect, which is mystery-solving. Both are very well curated, with clever puzzles that take advantage of the historical building in which they're housed. We solved both in one day -- it's recommended to do the Architect first, then the Vault, which we did. We tackled the Architect in the morning. Our host was engaging and enthusiastic, and our team of four had a wonderful time working our way through the secrets of the room. The puzzles are clever and well-organized, with lots of little, thoughtful touches -- notes penned on fabric, for example. Play is available in both English and Dutch. After lunch, we tackled the Vault -- a heist scenario that begins with your talking your way into the building -- and the Security Guard host was not persuaded easily! As with the Architect, this scenario took great advantage of the building's historical features and was both mentally and physically challenging! We had an incredible time. I can honestly say this was the most impressive escape room set-up I've ever seen!

Fantastic puzzle room in reality

Over for a day in Amsterdam for a conference and was put into a room with 3 strangers. It was a great experince to work together to figure out the clue, figure our the solution and move on. A great ice breaker, a great laugh. Very well done and an hour well spent in team work. You need to be 3-4 people to enjoy it properly, more to many fewer will make it tricky. strongly recommend it
