in the Trojan war the greek's pretended they had given up their siege of troy and pretended to go home, leaving a giant wooden horse behind as a supposed trophy but they hid greek warriors in the wooden horse so they were taken into the city with the horse. At night the greek warriors climbed ut of the horse, opened the city gates for the rest of the greek army that had now returned and they slaughtered the trojans in their beds.

What is the Trojan horse trick?
During the Trojan War, the Trojans "admitted defeat" and sent a "peace gift" of a beautiful, huge wooden horse to the Greeks' camp; but the Greeks didn't know that the horse was hollow and that the Trojans were hiding inside of it, ready to attack them.
Which ancient city was conquered using a wooden horse?
Troy
Who played the Trojan horse trick on the Athenians?
No one played the Trojan horse against the Athenians. They are greek
Why was it necessary for the Greeks inside the horse to remain quiet?
That they needed to launch a surprise attack is the reason why it was necessary for the Greeks to remain quiet inside the Trojan Horse. The Greeks planned to emerge from the hollow interior of their giant wooden horse when the Trojans were sleeping unarmed after celebrating the apparent withdrawal of Troy's assailants. Any sound would alert the Trojans to the fact that the horse was hollow, and filled with an armed elite expeditionary force, and that the warriors could be trapped inside for burning alive or dragged out for torturing and killing.
