Odyssey is a science puzzle adventure game focused on scientific reasoning and argumentation in astronomy and mechanics from the ancient Greeks to Newton. The game blends the history of science with an immersive journey across the exotic yet dangerous Wretched Islands to rescue Kai, a 13-year old girl, and her family. While solving puzzles to navigate across the islands, you also embark on an intellectual voyage, reconstructing the creative ideas and arguments of some of the world’s greatest scientists and philosophers.

The game is suitable for ages 11+ but, while its fundamentals are in education, Odyssey has been designed to be a strong game in its own right that can be enjoyed by adults and kids alike. To this end, The Young Socratics have enlisted the help of Eric Lindstrom (Tomb Raider: Underworld, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider - Legend, Solar Eclipse) on narrative duties, and Jason Miller (Nintendo, LucasArts, Disney, Activision) on game development.

Key features:

• An immersive environment for exploration with a mystery-adventure story and science-based puzzles.
• Plenty of scientific models within the game environment for investigation and conducting your own experiments.
• A journal that reads like a mystery novel, while providing insight into the history of astronomy and mechanics from the ancient Greeks to Newton, and clues for solving the puzzles.
