Both rooms we played at Sherlocked were truly excellent. The location, theme and hosts together make for a stand-out immersive experience. The puzzles were both original and fun. We'll definitely be back to complete the new room, The Architect, later this year. Thanks Sherlocked!

The architect escape room offers a really exciting experience. I especially loved the craftsmanship of the room, it's details and the contraptions to find your way out.

The architect vs The vault

I have done both the rooms at Sherlocked. The architect was very good and very enjoyable. The game was well designed with a nice mix of puzzles. For this room I would say 5 stars for sure. For the vault I was very disappointed. The room is trying to be different so I can appreciate the designers took a risk but it just didn't work. There also seemed to be a few red herrings that caused confusion more than anything else. Of all the rooms I've done (over 10) this was the least enjoyable room. In conclusion my advice is 100% to do the architect but I would not recommend the vault.

Intentionally designed, amazing story, fantastic experience

I have played a number of escape rooms and this one tops them all! The build of the rooms, the amazing architecture, a cohesive and provocative storyline, and amazing tasks connect each piece of the experience into a wonderful and memorable time. From the time you sign up you feel like you are in the game. From an "experience design" standpoint, it's one of the most finely executed experiences I have had the opportunity to participate in.

I did the Alchemist escape room. One of the best, most immersive escape rooms I have ever done. Difficulty wise, it was on the easier side, but the atmosphere and effects of the room more than made up for it. Our hostess was very professional and played along. She dropped us in the room with minimal explanation, which honestly I am a fan of. Very immersive! Also, Mary's wild way

Best escape room we have done so far!

As we visited the Netherlands from Australia, we could not leave the country without escaping a room in Amsterdam. This was the best escape room we have done so far. When we entered The "Architect Room" we were amazed by the size and the decor. Its not the typical padlocks after padlocks , but it was interactive and the puzzles were fun and unique. There was a clear order in the puzzles you need to solve. The host was clear in his story and set us in the mood to play the "detectives" also he was more than helpful when we got stuck. We definitely recommend this room for people wanting to do high quality escape rooms haha. Doing this room with just two people might be challenging (for beginners like us). We didnt escape, but it was an unique experience and left us with a smile on our face! Will def come back!

Awesome experience

Sherlocked was my second escape room and I cant even compare the two. The Architect is a next level of escape rooms, the room itself and all the details are mind-blowing. We experienced all kind of emotions, from pure happiness when we solved a difficult task to frustration when we didnt know how to proceed. Although we didn't finish in time, our host was supernice and showed us what would we find at the end ( and its really impressive). I'd say it is one of the must-do activity in Amsterdam, we were international group of 6 people and I think we will never forget this :) Looking forward to try The Vault!

Outstanding experience

That was an amazing experience. I have some experience in the quest rooms, but so far, this is the best one. All types of riddles differ from each other, some unexpected moves and definitely an excellent final riddle. It is quite hard, though lots of fun. I strongly recommend it! So far the best activity experience in Amsterdam. Thank you guys!
