It's hard to put my finger on what didn't gel about this game.
The first 15 minutes of this game is incredible, so unique.
As we got into the game though, things just didn't seem to "fit". Puzzles weren't particularly enjoyable. Moments where everything is on one person with the rest of us egging-on, watching, just didn't hit the mark.

SO MUCH FUN. Loved the whole premise and story and the acting element, it was really fun to get into character and play along with the hosts! Fun puzzles and amazing use of the underground rooms too, though I think 5 people was too many for this room - 4 would have been a perfect number.

So much fun, incredibly unique and a joy to play. Best start to a game I've played and great to explore a real ex-stock exchange vault.

You should pose as an art investor and bluff you way into the building. Then go to the Vault.

We were incredibly nervous about this game and how much acting would be involved, but the amazing GM let us though the game with no problem. It felt very natural... and that is not usual for us. 

We absolutely loved it. It was perfect to be 4 players for this as there was also 4 parts of the game. The game started perfectly and set the mood well - even if it stank of cigarette smoke. 

Seeing this beautiful building the game was set in was half the fun. Wow. 

We would have liked a few more puzzles and the crawling was not our favorite thing (only one person had to do it), but all in all a great experience.

It’s a shame because it has incredible potential.  There were some great moments, but with some broken tech and a confusing intro, it felt like a miss.

Reviews by escape room review sites

There is no doubt this was an impressive set with a strong story, but we felt it was lacking in puzzles. With a lot of waiting and simplified puzzles, this game left us wanting more from our time in the Vault, either way, we’ll certainly give the ‘real’ room a try in real life when the world allows

The best escape rooms in Amsterdam and two of the most amazing experiences I’ve had. They might be light on puzzles and occasionally have frustrating moments but the overall experiences were phenomenal.

I have played the room „The Vault“, which was one of my top favourites so far, for the 2nd time now (my fellow players didn’t know it), and unfortunately I have to say that I had it in better memory. The game couldn’t meet the high expectations.

Even though we couldn't defeat The Vault, we still had a really entertaining alternative ending. Again, this is due to how much you get into the game. We really had fun at the end, which made our defeat seem only half as bad.

Sherlocked in Amsterdam has one of the best rated Escape Rooms in Europe with their game “The Vault”. But can the room really stand up to all the hype?

10 / 10
This heist-themed escape room is highly rated by many seasoned escapists, so we couldn't wait to break into these underground vaults for ourselves. Did it steal our hearts?
