About the escape room

Last night, hooded figures broke into 221 B Baker Street and kidnapped the famous master detective. It seems that during his investigation he stumbled upon things that the crime syndicate probably didn’t want the Scotland Yard to know.

They received an anonymous letter the next morning, which did not contain any ransom demands, but simply announced that Sherlock would meet his deserved end at noon and that nothing would stand in the way of taking over the London underworld.

Dr. Watson and Sherlock’s housekeeper Mrs. Hudson have also disappeared from the scene and cannot help with the investigation.

As a crime scene squad, you inspect Baker Street to find any clues to his current whereabouts before your idol’s last hour has come.

There must be a clue as to whose plans Sherlock was about to foil, but the list of potential criminals and crime groups is long and time is running out.

Actors' gameThe team is often described as super friendly and attentive, with a great feel for hint timing. Individual game masters like Viktoria are explicitly praised.

Great rooms, tricky, imaginative puzzles, and suspense right up to the end. The explanation at the beginning was easy to understand, and we felt well guided. Our theme was Sherlock Holmes — absolutely top-notch.

Very good room with great mechanics and high-quality props, but it was just too dark for me in a few places. Still, a well-rounded experience and absolutely recommendable.

Tried it for the first time with our daughter: great sound effects and good puzzles. With hints it’s quite doable for beginners too. We really enjoyed it; we’ll definitely do it again.

We were there with two kids and had a blast. With a few hints we got through just fine—the story really carries it. Great location, friendly welcome, cold drinks afterward—we'll be back!

Not too easy, nice decor and good puzzles — we liked it. It was a bit dark, though.

We played Sherlock and it was simply top-notch. Tons of fun, and whenever we got stuck, we got exactly the right hints. Ten out of ten, a clear recommendation!
