Description:

21st of October 1891, London. A dark silence hangs over 221B Baker Street. The great detective Sherlock Holmes has been discovered dead, washed up in the gutters outside a seedy East End opium den.

Without his nemesis, the wicked Professor James Moriarty plots world domination from the shadows. You - Sherlock's oldest friends and faithful assistants - are now the only hope of stopping him.

You've received a mysterious telegram saying that somewhere, hidden in Sherlock's study, is a file he compiled on Moriarty's evil plans. If this is true, it must be discovered and delivered to Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard within the hour.

Prove your mettle as Baker Street's finest by tracking down the file, outsmarting the Napoleon of Crime, and solving the case. The plot thickens, but the game's afoot!

You've got to do these escape rooms! Our group did the Sherlock's Despair room and it was so much fun. Super helpful when we needed a clue - really loved it. Will absolutely be coming again. Thank you!

Me and my friend visited to do Sherlock’s Despair.

We have done quite a few escape rooms but this was by far the most difficult. James was a fantastic host and was incredibly patient when we asked for numerous clues. We managed to escape but only just!! Fantastic experience and very tricky puzzles which really tested our logic.

Thank you James and the rest of Breakin for a fun, memorable experience.

I was really nervous as I was taking a girl on a first date here and it couldn’t have gone better! The staff were really friendly and were willing to help at any point you get stuck which may happen quite a few times if you pick the Sherlock room but it was an amazing experience and it flew by will definitely be back!

Another amazing afternoon at Breakin' escape rooms. This is the second time we visited and this time we went for The Sherlock Holmes themed room. It was well pitched and enjoyed by 4 players, including a panic room newbie. The game was well hosted, good immersive room and with imaginative clues. Customer service was excellent. We shall be back again in the new year. Thanks for a great experience
