A thousand years of secrets, in one book you can actually understand
We gathered more than eighteen hundred rare books, written between the 6th and 20th centuries in Latin, German, Hebrew, Tibetan and more. We turned them into a map and a game. Now we are explaining them in one book.
Which one appears more?
Two ideas, one winner. Guess which one shows up more in the texts and build your streak. Hint: the old authors did not think the way you expect.
