A Race Against Time

This educational game challenges you to solve puzzles, combine items within the historically recreated environment, and use your wit to keep the merchant on schedule. Explore his realistically depicted hall house and learn about daily life, both professional and personal, in the Hanseatic region. Focus on these key tasks:

• Wardrobe Preparation: Assemble the merchant's attire, remembering that some garments require medieval-style cleaning or drying.
• Letter Drafting: Compose an important letter, requiring ink preparation and finding appropriate writing materials.
• Cargo Distribution: Manage the delivery of goods across the house's floors using a cargo crane.
