Living in the modern world we are still surrounded by myths, tales, rumors and legends and many of us always wanted to find out whether these stories are true. This application offers a unique opportunity to check out thousands of amazing myths and curious facts that will astonish you and bring a lot of fun!

The application is divided into four sections:

➊ "Myths Quiz" - scientifically-entertaining part of the applications, which will confirm or deny the most interesting myths of the 21st century and give an awesome explanation to each of them. You can use this application as a myth encyclopedia and test your knowledge in an entertaining quiz mode.

Do you know whether the following myths are true or false?

- Alcohol is a good way to warm yourself when you're feeling cold.
