About this quest

This game's goal is to lead you around Monastiraki and Plaka, two of Athens' most famous and picturesque areas. 

The riddles are straightforward and don't follow any kind of plot; they are meant to amuse you and encourage you to engage with the attractions. You will learn little-known facts and come across monuments that are typically ignored as you pass by some of the city's landmarks. 

There's no need to rush. Take in the views, relax, and let the city captivate you.
