Abenteuer Dielenhaus

Step into a 15th-century Hanseatic merchant's house with "Dielenhaus Adventure - The Merchant's Quest," an immersive escape room experience. This digital escape room lets you playfully solve puzzles and learn about the daily life and work of a Hanseatic merchant around 1475 – a digital, interactive museum visit with engaging historical details.

A Story of Mystery and Commerce

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 various duties within his hall house, but you only have 30 minutes before your bowling appointment. In this educational game, you'll need to solve puzzles, combine items in the historically accurate setting, and use your wit to keep the merchant on schedule. Explore his hall house, 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, remembering that some garments require medieval cleaning or drying methods.
• Letter Drafting: Compose an important letter, requiring you to mix ink and find appropriate phrasing.
• Cargo Distribution: Use a cargo crane to distribute delivered goods across the house's floors.
