Athens Under the Gods: The Minotaur Code

1-2 Rätsel waren etwas unklar, aber alles in allem: tolle Geschichte, tolle Rätsel und viele Orte hätten wir sonst nicht gesehen

Discovering the secret sights of Athens

Das Spiel ist sehr schön gestaltet und die Stationen liegen schön nah zusammen, was das Spiel nicht langweilig macht. Allerdings fehlen noch geschichtliche Erläuterungen zu den Stationen, nach dem Lösen der Rätsel. Daumen hoch.
