Escape into History: A 15th-Century Hanseatic Merchant's House Escape Room

Experience an authentic escape room adventure within the digital recreation of a 15th-century Hanseatic merchant's home.

A Race Against Time:

Merchant Jürgen from the Knoggeburg Hanseatic family is preparing for a crucial council meeting. Time is of the essence! He's tasked you with several errands within his hall house, but you've got a bowling date in 30 minutes – you'll need to hurry!

This educational game challenges you to solve puzzles, combine items within the historically accurate setting, and use your wit to complete Jürgen's tasks on time. Explore his hall house, gaining insights into his professional and private life in the Hanseatic region. Key tasks include:

• 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 prepare ink and find suitable writing materials.
• Cargo Distribution: Utilize a cargo crane to distribute delivered goods across the house's various floors.
