Odyssey: The Search for Ulysses Hints

How do I get through the second room?

  • 1 of 9: Walk up to the big statue at the top of the stairs and use it -- it will talk to you.
  • 2 of 9: Have you noticed the circles at the bottom of the room?
  • 3 of 9: When you step on each one, a word or name will appear on screen.
  • 4 of 9: Find the circle whose name answers the question the statue is asking, and then use it.  This basically seems to be a test of your knowledge of Greek mythology.
  • 5 of 9: You'll have to repeat this two more times with the next two statues.  There aren't any real clues within the game, so if you need the answers, read ahead.
  • 6 of 9: The answer to the first question is "Theseus."
  • 7 of 9: As a bit of a hint to the second question, the pronoun "his" appears to be intended as a gender-neutral one.
  • 8 of 9: The answer is "Hera."
  • 9 of 9: The answer to the third question is "man."
