This paper concentrates on the design of an educational game, which features entertainment and educational value at the same time in contrast to other approaches. Based on the presentation of educational and game objective, the game concept illustrates how results of transdisciplinary research can be transferred to the new scientific generation.

Therewith, the Cycle Labyrinth illustrates how abstract knowledge is imparted to the new scientific generation.     «
