About the escape room

Buchen Sie jetzt mit dem Promo-Code worldofescapes und erhalten Sie einen Rabatt von 10%! Sherlock Holmes ist entführt worden! Am vergangenen Abend brachen vermummte Gestalten in die Baker Street 221 B ein und entführten den berühmten Meisterdetektiv. Es scheint so, als wäre er während seinen Ermittlungen auf Dinge gestoßen, die das Verbrechersyndikat wohl lieber nicht im Wissen des Scotland Yard sehen wollte. Eben diese erhielten am nächsten Morgen einen anonymen Brief, welcher keine Lösegeldforderungen enthielt, sondern schlicht und ergreifend ankündigte, dass Sherlock zur Mittagsstunde sein verdientes Ende finden würde und somit der Übernahme der Londoner Unterwelt nichts mehr im Wege stehe. Dr. Watson und Sherlocks Haushälterin, Mrs. Hudson, sind ebenfalls von der Bildfläche verschwunden und können somit bei den Ermittlungen nicht behilflich sein. Als Spurensicherungskommando begebt ihr euch in die Baker Street um eventuelle Hinweise auf seinen aktuellen Aufenthaltsort zu finden, bevor die letzte Stunde eures Idols geschlagen hat. Es muss einen Hinweis darauf geben, wessen Pläne Sherlock drauf und dran war zu durchkreuzen, doch die Liste der potenziellen Täter und Verbrechergruppen ist lang und die Zeit läuft euch davon.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost praise the friendly game masters who give hints at exactly the right moment. The puzzles are considered challenging but manageable, often rated 4 out of 5 in difficulty. The setting and props feel high-quality rather than cheap. A few found it a bit dark, which boosts the atmosphere but sometimes makes searching harder.

WeaknessesSome found parts too dark, making details harder to spot. Without hints, it can be demanding for complete newcomers.

StrengthsLovingly designed rooms, premium materials, and a cohesive Sherlock vibe. Helpful, attentive hosting keeps the game flowing. Good location and pleasant facilities are occasionally singled out for praise.

SecurityClear briefing and support during the game convey a sense of safety. Lockable storage and well-kept rooms were noted positively.

Level of fearNo horror scenario—more suspense with a slightly dark tone. Families with kids managed well, especially with occasional tips.

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.

Quality of riddlesPuzzles are varied, logical, and fairly interlinked—more thinky than search-heavy. With hints they remain doable for beginners, while advanced players still feel challenged. Nothing feels cheap or flimsy.

PlotSherlock has been kidnapped, and you search Baker Street for clues before the worst happens at high noon. Classic investigative pressure without unnecessary twists or spoilers.

Difficulty levelOn the tougher side, often rated 4 out of 5. Ideal for mixed groups; newcomers do fine with hints, experienced players get solid brainwork.

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!
