App Description

Odyssey: Greek mythology point and click adventure game. Join the heroes of troy

Step into this epic point-and-click mythical adventure game with giants. See what it takes to be the Greek demigod hero Odysseus (Ulysses)! Get ready to embark on a journey filled with danger, mythical creatures and ancient Gods. Thrilling moments and unexpected twists as well as the evil presence of legendary creatures dominate this mythical game throughout. This is a huge mystery game like the good old adventure games from the golden age, found nowadays in scumm and scummvm engine. This game is not like the hidden object adventure games, its an old school point and click adventure game. Play the era of minotaur, pegasus, atlantis and other greek mythology creatures.

You will have to step into the shoes of Odysseus (Ulysses) and his journey home after the fall of Troy. It took him ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten- year Trojan War. Become a part of Homer's original myth, live the adventure, and educate yourself during the process.

Beware; this is not a simple task, its a crusade. You will have to escape from Goddess Calypso island, blind the giant Cyclop Polyphemus, escape the mansion of the witch Goddess Circe, enter the gates of hades, go to the land of the death in search of an mystery oracle, avoid the Siren mermaids and gorgon, pass between the waterworld, six-headed monster Scylla and the whirlpool Charybdis creature, and visit the Sun God island. Finally, you will have to find Ithaca and your lost city, murder the suitor and get together with your beloved wife, Penelope and your fearless son Telemachus. Athena the greek goddess from olympos will help you in this journey. Join the legendary Greek Mythology heroes like perseus celebrated by Homer and hesiod.

▶ www.pdasnews.com review: "Being a Lucas/Sierra addicted fan (Kings Quest, Monkey Island), I loved this game. It kept me playing for several hours each day and when I finished it (with tips of course) I wanted more. I totally recommend it to all the genre fans and all the other guys who are just bored playing 'hidden object' games."

▶ www.blackberryos.com review: "If you were born before the 90's, then you most likely are familiar with some old classic point and click adventure games. My all time favorite was the King's Quest series. This game will keep you entertained for hours on end. Beware, highly addicting!"
