Odyssey was published by Audiogenic in the later period of the Amiga’s commercial life when it was being flooded with Doom clones and the Sony PlayStation had arrived. However, Odyssey harks back to earlier platforming adventure games such as Audiogenic’s own Exile. At its core Odyssey is about visiting islands and getting from one location to another by solving puzzles that prevent progress. These puzzles generally involve switches and doors but some areas are inaccessible to the human character. As the game progresses crystals allow the player to transform into different creatures such as a spider, a grasshopper and various birds and these additional powers open up new areas. There are six islands with exterior and interior sections as well as a final castle to tackle. Be sure to check out the Amiga Format magazine coverdisk demo which features an exclusive training island.
