If The Odyssey film is anything like The Odyssey adventure game from 2012, Matt Damon will spend the entire first hour trying to solve a single loom puzzle
Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film The Odyssey, starring Matt Damon, opens this weekend with a runtime of two hours and 53 minutes. The PC Gamer article humorously compares the upcoming epic adventure film to a 2012 point-and-click adventure game that shares the same title.
The game in question was originally developed by Crazysoft as a mobile title before being ported to Steam in 2016. The article’s author played through the adventure game for the exact duration of the film to compare the cinematic experience, using the tongue-in-cheek framing that puzzle-heavy adventure games like this one might capture a similar sense of epic storytelling—albeit with significantly more time spent solving individual puzzles.
