What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

we are an experienced couple with escape rooms (done over 10 in Israel). in our opinion this room is not suitable for 2 people - we did not finish in time (a shame that they allow couples to play). most of the riddles were good, but there were too many for a couple. probably would have managed if they gave us a little more time to finish (but they stopped the game exactly after 1 hour). we asked for a walk-through for the few remaining riddles (after we already got out the room), but the staff refused to tell us (too bad, because we would not go there again and it could have make our experience better). it is very expensive (compared to other rooms in Amsterdam). overall the room was nice, good theme, sophisticated riddles, but we got out of there with a bad taste. we would not return there.

We did the break-in room with friends. It was so immersive from the very start and had us very excited up until the very end. Best one I have done so far, very much worth the price.

(The vault) Much more interactive with a lot of roleplay involved compared to regular escape rooms. An all around amazing experience!

Good experience and a hard game

Fantastic escape room 'The Alchemist', strong overall story and smart physical puzzels for individual parts. Did it with colleagues, a group of 6 in total. The room is big and works well with such a group.

Very cool, logic needed!

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!

It wonderfully difficult to distinguish the real world from the game, and I loved it for that. I had more fun being in character and interacting with the characters and environment than I did solving the puzzles.

This was my first escape room experience ever, and I was very sceptical at first because I'm not usually a big fan of riddles and puzzles. But this turned out to be really fun! The location was amazing, and really got you into the mood. I felt very adventurous ;-) The friends I went with are "Escape room experts", one of them has done no less than 8 different escape rooms. They said the "Architect" (the other escape room by Sherlocked) was their number 1 out of all escape rooms they had done. They said they liked the riddles better, compared to the Vault (the one I went to with them), because they found them more challenging. But they all agreed that the Vault had the best location, and that it was one of the best escape rooms they had done. Also, I should say that we only just made it at the Vault and only because we got a few tips when we got stuck, so don't think it was too easy ;-) Anyway, I guess I am hooked now, and I will try the Architect escape room, too :-)

Sherlocked has what are currently our family’s favorite escape rooms. We were so happy to be able to experience both the Architect and the Vault rooms on our visit to Amsterdam. Both rooms were challenging and were full of puzzles. We really liked that there was a clear story to each room and that there was a nice logical flow to the puzzles. We also really liked that there were fewer locks to unlock and more puzzles to solved compared to other escape rooms we have done. I’d recommend Sherlocked to anyone who enjoys escape rooms.
