Escape the 15th Century: A Hanseatic Merchant's Digital Quest
Step into the historically accurate digital escape room, "Dielenhaus Adventure – The Merchant's Quest," set within the home of a 15th-century Hanseatic merchant. This engaging game blends puzzle-solving with a playful exploration of daily life and commerce in the Hanseatic League around 1475. Think of it as an interactive museum visit packed with fascinating historical details you won't find in 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. He's tasked you with several errands around his grand hall house, but you only have 30 minutes before your bowling appointment with friends. It's a race against the clock!
This educational game challenges you to solve puzzles, combine items within the historically recreated environment, and use your sharp wit to keep the merchant on schedule. Explore his home, uncovering details about his professional and personal life in the Hanseatic region. The game focuses on three key tasks:
- Wardrobe Preparation: Assemble the merchant's attire for the meeting. But be careful! Some garments require medieval cleaning and drying methods.
- Letter Drafting: Compose an important letter, requiring you to prepare ink and find appropriate writing materials.
- Cargo Distribution: Utilize a cargo crane to distribute delivered goods across the house's various floors.
