To complete the Herc the Merc Challenge in Bitlife, players have to complete the following objectives.

  • Be Born in Greece.
  • Have 100% Health.
  • Go to the Gym 10+ Times After Age 18+
  • Strangle Five Different Enemies to Death.
  • Marry Someone You Met at the Gym.

Step 1: Be Born in Greece

Since the first portion of an in-game challenge is relatively easier, Bitlife’s no different. To complete the first objective:

  1. Start a new life from the main menu.
  2. Select Greece as your birthplace.

Unlike the previous challenges in Bitlife, this one’s not gender-specific. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a male or female.

Step 2: Maintain 100% Health

The second step is related to your character’s physical attributes, mainly, having 100% Health. To achieve this objective, here are some tips:

  • Regularly visit the gym.
  • Avoid consuming drugs and alcohol.
  • Follow a healthy diet.
  • Get medical check-ups immediately if you fall ill.
  • Keep happiness levels high, as low happiness can negatively impact your health.

Bitlife’s Bitizen Membership allows players to maximize their health right from the beginning, making the second step all the easier.

Step 3: Go to the Gym 10+ Times After Age 18

  1. Head over to Activities. From there, select Mind & Body.
  2. Once there, select Gym.
  3. Repeat this process 10 times to complete the third objective.

After players turn 18, their Gym visits will cost $15 per session. In that case, it’s better to have stable income streams. For instance, jobs or freelance work.

Step 4: Strangle Five Different Enemies to Death

  1. Head over to Relationships. Select a friend or acquaintance, and repeatedly insult them until they become an enemy.
  2. Once players acquire at least five enemies, head over to Activities. From there, select Crime followed by Murder.
  3. Once done, select one of your friend-turned-enemies as your target. Select as your act of murder.
  4. Repeat the above process until you’ve strangled five enemies.

Players can get caught during this challenge, restarting the game may help in that case. If you get imprisoned, a jail escape would be required to proceed with the remainder of the challenge.

Step 5: Marry Someone You Met at the Gym

  1. Head over to the gym.
  2. Upon receiving a pop-up about a potential love interest, accept the request.
  3. Increase the relationship bar by presenting your partner with loving gifts and spending quality time together.
  4. Once done, head over to Assets. From there, select the Go Shopping option to buy a ring.
  5. Lastly, propose and start wedding preparations upon your partner’s acceptance.

After that, you are all set and should receive the achievement. For more Bitlife guides, you can check our articles on how to become a pilot or how to write a memoir.
