A Race Against Time

Merchant Jürgen Knoggeburg needs your help! He's preparing for a crucial council meeting, but time is short. You've been tasked with various errands in his hall house, but you also have a bowling appointment in 30 minutes! This educational game challenges you to solve puzzles, combine items within the historically accurate setting, and use your wits to keep the merchant on schedule.

Explore and Learn

Explore Jürgen's hall house and discover the details of daily professional and private 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-style cleaning or drying.
• Letter Drafting: Create an important letter, requiring you to prepare ink and find appropriate writing materials.
• Cargo Distribution: Use a cargo crane to distribute delivered goods across the different floors of the house.
