The Alchemist

Amazing set design using multiple levels, it was very impressive to see how they were able to fit quite a large amount of puzzles, this room is certainly doable with 2 people if you are decently experienced. The theatrics, the puzzles, the design *chef’s kiss*. I can’t wait to plan another trip back the Netherlands to finish all the rest of the amazing rooms.

One of the best rooms we have ever done. Well worth it 5 stars

What a fantastic room and worthy of its fame. Our GM was especially great even when the entire computer system crashed and we had to wait 10 minutes for it to get fixed we still enjoyed the decor and checking things out. We saw a bunch of new puzzle designs and the room felt more solid and like a real place then a constructed set. I think that is owed a lot to the use of real wood and metal all over. The GM communication system was also really fun and clever. A very solid loved it from us. We played as a couple with advanced notice they can gave the room setup for 2 and it didnt feel like too much of a rush or time crunch. Despite the computer crash we still felt this was a near perfect game

I rate this escape experience an OBVIOUS 5/5 (ck out my bio for rating system). And quite the experience it was. From the very beginning, our GM took us on an immersive adventure that took 4 years to create in a 100+ year old building. To call it an escape room would be undermining it's true essence which is that of a grand production. Every puzzle had such intricate details and flowed harmoniously with the theme. There was no detail left unattended. The set/theme, puzzles and my experience exceeded all expectations and then some. There was a lot to do in 90 minutes and we, a group of 4, did it all with just 30 seconds remaining. But I wouldn't have had it any other way, since it gave me more time to absorb its beauty. It's a once in a lifetime experience that I'll never forget!

This room lives up to its reputation. Great tech with some real wow moments. There is a story but I was too focused on solving the puzzles to get immersed in it. Everything flowed smoothly but challenging enough to feel the pressure. 8.7/10

Beautiful, stunning special effects, fantastic host, so much fun!

Absolutely amazing. Top tier world class room. A must for enthusiasts

Best escape room we have ever done and the best GM we have ever had! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

After having heard from many friends that played and loved this room, we finally played the Alchemist with a group of 5. The start is underwhelming: "What the *** is this...?!" ;) but right after that we had so many "NO-WAAY" moments! The room is absolutely beautifully built and offers many surprising twists. The story, the tech, and the design are incredible! It may not have the trickiest puzzles, but for me personally, that's a plus because it allows you to immerse yourself in the story even more and takes you along in an awesome experience. With this setting and amazing build quality, I also understand the higher price and find it justified. We had a great time and are all excited to play the other Sherlocked rooms!

This was our last room on a four day, 22 room trip, and it didn't disappoint. A great use of space, and fun puzzles made this one special. It ended up right over the middle on my ranking for the trip, but with so many high quality games, it's hard to rank them. This was fun, had some very impressive points, and a great flow! Highly recommend if you are in Amsterdam!
