Escape the 15th Century: A Hanseatic Merchant's Digital Puzzle

Step into the historically accurate digital escape room, "Dielenhaus Adventure – The Merchant's Quest," and experience life as a 15th-century Hanseatic merchant. This engaging game, essentially a virtual museum tour, offers a fun way to learn about daily life and work in Lübeck around 1475. Uncover intriguing facts you won't find in typical textbooks!

A Race Against Time

Merchant Jürgen Knoggeburg needs your help! He's preparing for a crucial council meeting, and time is of the essence. You've been tasked with completing several assignments in his grand hall house, but you only have 30 minutes before your bowling date with friends. Can you complete his requests in time?

Solve Puzzles, Uncover History

This educational game challenges you to solve puzzles, combine items within the historically recreated room, and use your wit to satisfy the merchant. Explore his home, learning about his professional and personal life in the Hanseatic region. The game focuses on three main tasks:

• Wardrobe Preparation: Assemble the merchant's attire, remembering that some garments require medieval cleaning or drying methods.
• Letter Drafting: Compose an important letter, requiring you to create ink and find the right phrasing.
• Cargo Distribution: Utilize a cargo crane to distribute deliveries across the house's floors.
