Odyssey: The Search for Ulysses Hints
How do I escape from the second cyclops?
1 of 12: You may have seen something on the same side of the island as your ship that you could use.
2 of 12: There was some sort of wooden structure there.
3 of 12: It looks a lot like a giant crossbow.
4 of 12: You just have to find a giant "bowstring" and "arrow."
5 of 12: The bowstring is right next to the bow -- pick up the rope from the ground and use it on the bow.
6 of 12: And there were a bunch of sharpened poles on the hut side of the island.
7 of 12: Pick one up, drag it through the forest, and then use it on the bow.
8 of 12: Press SPACE to draw the bow once you've put the pole in, and then when you're ready to fire, press ENTER.
9 of 12: You need to make sure to get the cyclops right in the eye.
10 of 12: Wait until he's as close as possible.
11 of 12: He will turn his head a bit before turning away from you again. That's when you want to fire.
12 of 12: If you miss, you can get another pole from the beach and try again.
