This week’s tasks are:
- Be born in Greece
- Have 100 percent Health
- Go to the gym 10+ times after Age 18
- Strangle 5+ enemies to death
- Marry someone you met at the gym
Be Born In Greece
Kickstart your journey by creating a custom life and choosing Greece as your birthplace. While setting up your character, consider selecting the Crime Special Talent if available from Job Packs, as it will aid in the later stages of the challenge involving criminal activities.
Have 100 Percent Health
Maintaining peak health is crucial but not straightforward. Steer clear of detrimental choices like alcohol, drugs, and unprotected sex, which can deteriorate your health. Instead, engage in health-boosting activities such as regular gym visits, walks, necessary treatments, adopting a healthy diet, meditation, and even alternative therapies like acupuncture. If your health dips, a quick prayer might offer a health boost.
Go to the Gym 10+ Times After Age 18
This task is relatively straightforward. Post-18, head to Activities > Mind and Body > Gym and confirm your visit. Remember, gym visits cost money, so secure a job to fund your fitness journey. You don’t need to hit the gym 10 times in a single year; just keep going until the task is marked complete. Plus, these visits might lead to romantic encounters, which can help with the next task.
Strangle 5+ Enemies to Death

To fulfill this sinister task, you'll need enemies. You can naturally accumulate enemies over time, or proactively create them by navigating to your relationship tab, selecting a friend, and choosing to become enemies.
Once you have enemies, go to Activities > Crime > Murder, select an enemy, and choose "Strangle Them" as your method. If the option doesn't appear, simply close and reopen the menu to refresh the list. Repeat until you've dispatched at least five enemies. It's advisable to tackle this task last to avoid potential jail time that could hinder completing other tasks, especially getting married.
Marry Someone You Met at the Gym

If you haven't yet met someone at the gym, head to Activities > Love > Date and look for a pop-up indicating a gym encounter. Accept the date if it mentions meeting at the gym. Then, nurture your relationship until your partner agrees to your proposal and wedding plans.
Completing the Herc the Merc Challenge in *BitLife* showcases your strategic prowess, even without special talents or items like the Assassin’s Blade. Follow these steps diligently, and you'll emerge victorious in this thrilling challenge.
