The Trojan War is over. Time to go home and enjoy a well-deserved break. Simple enough, right?
Well, not if you're Odysseus, the trouble magnet. The journey home to Ithaca takes another ten years. Along the way, there's a Cyclops with a cheese issue, sirens with questionable intentions, a powerful sorceress, monsters who really need to discover personal space, and gods who apparently have nothing better to do than ruin his day.
In Odysseus, you'll help the legendary hero navigate the perils of his epic journey across the Mediterranean. Your mission? Develop your skills, overcome trials, collect Tales, and turn a very rough trip into a legendary adventure. Strength, Intelligence, Cunning, Luck. You'll need to master all four to give Odysseus a fighting chance.
On your turn, choose a Trial card and decide whether to embark on an adventure or take a well-earned rest. Adventures help you develop your skills and build your collection of trials, while resting gives you a chance to strengthen a skill of your choice and gain Athena's Favor.
At the end of the game, you only score the points from trials you've successfully overcome. So, do you build up your strengths, shore up your weaknesses, or take a gamble on the cards available? Every choice matters, and the best plan today might not survive tomorrow.
And don't underestimate Athena's Favor. A little help from the goddess of wisdom can be just what you need to turn a decent plan into a great one.
Ready to set sail? Make sure you do before you start helping Odysseus find his way home. Just don't expect Poseidon to make it easy. He's got a reputation to maintain.

Odisej: Vojna je končana, a potovanje se je šele začelo
Trojanska vojna je končana. Čas je, da gremo domov in uživamo v zasluženem oddihu. Preprosto, kajne?
No, ne, če si Odisej, magnet za težave. Pot domov na Itako traja še deset let. Na poti se srečajo Kiklop s težavo s sirom, sirene z vprašljivimi nameni, mogočna čarovnica, pošasti, ki morajo resnično odkriti svoj osebni prostor, in bogovi, ki očitno nimajo nič boljšega za početi, kot da mu uničijo dan.
V igri Odisej boste legendarnemu junaku pomagali pri krmarjenju skozi nevarnosti njegovega epskega potovanja čez Sredozemlje. Vaša misija? Razvijte svoje spretnosti, premagajte preizkušnje, zbirajte zgodbe in spremenite zelo težko potovanje v legendarno pustolovščino. Moč, Inteligenca, Zvitost, Sreča. Obvladati boste morali vse štiri, da boste Odiseju dali priložnost za boj.
Na potezi izberi karto Preizkušnje in se odloči, ali se boš podal na pustolovščino ali si privoščil zaslužen počitek. Pustolovščine ti pomagajo razviti spretnosti in zgraditi zbirko preizkušenj, medtem ko ti počitek daje priložnost, da okrepiš spretnost po svoji izbiri in si pridobiš Atenino naklonjenost.
Na koncu igre prejmete točke le iz uspešno premaganih preizkušenj. Torej, ali krepite svoje prednosti, odpravljate slabosti ali tvegate z razpoložljivimi kartami? Vsaka izbira je pomembna in najboljši načrt danes morda ne bo preživel jutri.
In ne podcenjujte Atenine naklonjenosti. Malo pomoči boginje modrosti je lahko ravno tisto, kar potrebujete, da dober načrt spremenite v odličnega.
Ste pripravljeni odpluti? Prepričajte se, da ste pripravljeni, preden začnete pomagam Odiseju najti pot domov. Le ne pričakujte, da vam bo Pozejdon to olajšal. Ima svoj ugled, ki ga mora ohraniti.
