Self-Guided Secrets of Athens Exploration Game

Description
The myths were only the beginning. Theseus, hero of Athens and slayer of the Minotaur, has returned to his city, only to find himself caught in a new kind of labyrinth. One made of memory, mystery, and time. His magical clew, gifted by Ariadne to escape the original maze, is missing. And without it, even a hero cannot find the way out.
Your journey leads through sunlit ruins, shadowed alleys, and echoes of gods long gone. Solve ancient puzzles, trace forgotten paths, and help Theseus recover the clew before the threads of fate unravel completely. What begins as a search becomes a legend, and the city's future may depend on you.
Not just a game. A city. A secret. A story only you can finish.
