“Magical, expansive, beautiful, and meaningful.”
“Every little detail in this room was specially designed to bring full immersion from the start to the end, and oh my god, the end! This room has one of, if not the most, spectacular endings I have ever seen in an escape room.”
“The only reason not to recommend it for new players is that it might set an unrealistic bar for other games”
“The alchemist had some of the finest empowering moments that we’ve encountered in escape rooms. I can’t think of a time where I’ve felt more like the master of the domain in an escape room than I did in this game. And what’s even more magical: everyone in the room feels this strength together.”
“I would play this game again just to witness the ending again – beautiful.”
“The storyline is engaging and refreshingly unique.”
“For those who are looking for more whimsical or magical options, The Alchemist will delight.”
“The Alchemist is truly worth traveling across an ocean for.”
“TLDR;
A Masterpiece.”
“We were blown away by both wondrous dramatic events and smaller moments peppered throughout the experience, culminating in a stunning conclusion that will drop your jaw one more time.”

Sherlocked in the Media

Back in 2014, two weeks after we launched as one of the first escape rooms in Europe, we were invited by the now legendary Dutch talk show 'De Wereld Draait Door' to come demonstrate this strange idea of 'escape rooms' to an audience of 1.6 million viewers in The Netherlands.

Accessibility

The Alchemist is located on the third floor of a historic building in Amsterdam, and unfortunately, there’s no elevator. You’ll need to climb 56 steps, plus a few more during the experience. We apologize for any inconvenience.
