This week I tell Julius all about Hercules and the 12 Labors, a small-box solo dice game from Envy Born Games where you work through each of Hercules' legendary labors, rolling and adjusting dice to wear down each monster's track. Every labor you complete flips over to give you new equipment, like the Nemean Lion's impenetrable hide, adding more ways to tweak your dice as the challenges get tougher. Julius compared it to Proving Grounds from Renegade's Solo Hero series and wasn't convinced there's enough challenge here without the timer.
