The Labors of Hercules are aimed at lovers of puzzles and brainteasers, as well as to every man who is attracted to the ancient Greek spirit. The puzzles are based on ancient Greek mythological motifs, ancient Greek geometry, mathematics and logic, as well as linguistic elements derived from Greek history and prehistory. The Platonic and the Archimedean solids, the linear scriptures A and B, the meanders and the architectural rhythms of antiquity are presented as elements that lead to the solution of the twelve Labors.
