About this venue
Note: Lock Paper Scissors is not a physical escape room in Amsterdam, but an Australian publisher of print-and-play escape kits (such as Envy Murder Mystery, Escape Room Z and The Lost Mummy) that are listed as an Amsterdam venue by aggregators. You print the kit at home, hide the clues and play with friends — the host can simply participate thanks to a spoiler-free script. The atmosphere is more party-with-puzzles than true escape room: themed invitations, decor guides and playlists are part of the package. Reviewers find the puzzles on the light side, but praise the party decorations and the fact that you can reuse and customize a kit endlessly. There is no Amsterdam address to visit; you order the kits online.
