Odysseus Kosmos and his Robot Quest (Complete Season)

Couldn't do it. Played the prolouge/first episode and knew it would be a frustrating slog. You'll have to have patience and know you're not going to breeze through this. Not a common sense game. You'll use random items to solve some problems. These problems can have hidden layers too, so after you think you've solved what you need, you'll have to use another nonsensical item to uncover something else. There's lots of dialog, which can be fun, but you're going to have to click on all kinds of combinations and with two options for each item, you'll go through a lot of repetitious dialog, which gets old. The characters speak in gibberish, which is fine, but the sounds got kind of annoying and it didn't match the length of the dialog box, so you have to continue reading in silence. Totally nit picky, but I didn't realize that would bother me, because my reaction was to click onward once they stopped talking. If there's a demo I would suggest you start there or even watch the start of a Youtube play-through.

[h2]Sinopsis[/h2] Odysseus Kosmos and his Robot Quest (Complete Season) es una excelente aventura Point Click inspirada en las aventuras gráficas de antaño y en clásicos del cine del espacio y ciencia ficción. Hace 30 años la tripulación de la nave San Francisco desapareció misteriosamente en un planeta próximo a un agujero negro, dejando atrás únicamente a Odysseus Kosmos, el ingeniero y al robot de mantenimiento, Barton Quest. Ambos sujetos pasan sus días tranquilamente, llevando a cabo rutinarias tareas de mantenimiento de la nave o arreglando pequeños desperfectos. Odysseus es extremadamente vago, basando sus actividades en la ley del mínimo esfuerzo, mientras que Barton actúa como la voz de la razón, controlando a su compañero por el bien de la nave. Todo transcurre con normalidad y monotonía hasta que un día algo empieza a desestabilizar la nave, cortando las comunicaciones y amenazando la órbita marcada. Es hora de que ambos compañeros se pongan manos a la obra para solucionar el problema y descubrir cuál es el paradero de la tripulación desaparecida, haciendo frente a una anomalía espacio-temporal. [h2]Jugabilidad / Apartado técnico[/h2] El juego se divide en 5 capítulos, que originalmente fueron lanzados de manera asincrónica. Se desarrolla como una aventura gráfica clásica, con múltiples escenarios recargados que deberemos explorar con el puntero del ratón, observando e interactuando con toda clase de objetos y recogiendo ítems que se irán añadiendo a nuestro inventario para usarlos allí donde convenga. Ofrece una gran variedad de rompecabezas, muy entretenidos y originales, que dinamizan la aventura en varios puntos. El juego posee un importante componente narrativo, con múltiples conversaciones entre Odysseus y Barton, generalmente con tono humorístico y absurdo. [h2]Valoración[/h2] A simple vista Odysseus Kosmos and his Robot Quest puede parecer un simple point & click que no añade nada nuevo al género, y así es, pero es un juego que sabe cómo hacer las cosas bien y se disfruta mucho. La trama se desarrolla de forma exponencial, pasando de una sección plana y monótona a otra con grandes giros y eventos interesantes. El pixel art es excelente, con una enorme variedad de estancias, escenarios y lugares detallados y atractivos. La jugabilidad es simple, recorrer la nave y explorar el entorno con el ratón, sin embargo, la exploración se ve constantemente intercalada con numerosos y originales puzzles que hacen más ameno el juego. En resumen, una aventura gráfica muy recomendable, de mucha calidad y valor, que puede conseguirse a buen precio, es extensa (más de 20 horas) y encantará a los amantes de la ciencia ficción espacial. Lo salvaría de un incendio! 👨‍🚒👍🔥 [h1]9/10[/h1] [quote]🚨 Si te ha gustado la reseña y quieres descubrir buenos juegos, sígueme en mi página de Mentor: [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45092978/] Indies ON FIRE [/url]🚨[/quote]

This brings back the memories of all the bad parts of old point and click games, think DOS era moon logic. It's probably not a bad game if you like that sort of tedious trial and error, backtracking, endless dialogues, etc. It's simply not a game for me in 2025.

So, the first episode being free will give you a small taste of what this game is all about. If you don't know this game, I advise you to look for it and start with that one. I started playing episode 1 and as soon as I finished it, I decided to get the complete Season. This is a point and click puzzle game with a silly story, where you need to avoid a catastrophe, but Odysseus (the main character) is really reluctant to do anything. I found it to be a very entertaining game and got addicted in playing it until the very end. The art is really well done and it's a very likeable type. It's like a fusion of cartoonish pixel art and imitationalism, which they made it work really well together in here. I love the fact that when the main character talks, you hear just a mumble and when the robot talks it is a simple digital sound. You read what they say and it feels like you're actually listening to their words. It reminds me the Charlie Brown's teacher when she speaks which is a great throwback to a childhood memory. The game is slow-paced which can make you impatient and irritated to no end, but I think it is purposely made according to the character's personality. He is kind of a slow, lazy worker that manages to do things all by himself (with a little help from the robot) even though he doesn't want to. The exchanges between the characters are hilarious and gives you a really enjoyable time. The story is foolish, the characters are foolish and even the tasks can be foolish, so be prepared for that. All the foolishness became a great combination that makes you get really into the story and the game. Just don't take this game too serious and believe me: you'll have fun!

Not Recommended

Extremely ambitious story, killed by very tedious puzzles. The creator might be an enginneer himself as the majority of tasks are about repairing/building/sabotaging something in a very -- too ! -- detailed manner, often unpredictable. If you are ready to go through this... the story is really interesting. I recommand to use the walkthrough (which doesn't mean it will be easy). I recommand also to do all the achievement on first run, as it's the only way to have the real ending.

"Odysseus Kosmos and his Robot Quest (Complete Season)" is insanely overpriced pixelcrap. This is a point and click retro adventure with poor graphics, poor translation, and poor plot. Think of this as a crappy ripoff of The Secret of Monkey Island, but from Temu. The plot involves being stuck on a space station or whatever, with a robot, and you need to work out what's going on by clicking around on hotspots. The game tries to differentiate from Day of the Tentacle by doing things differently. For one, being incredibly unfunny and badly written. Also, a focus on puzzle minigames over inventory management... which in a lot of ways is problematic. The puzzles aren't well made, and often deliberately unintuitive... not rewarding clear thinking, but punishing it to be "random, ha ha". They segue into each other badly... it's shoddily assembled at the high and low levels. It's un-fun and unengaging. This game has been translated from some other language into English... badly. If this was done through Google Translate, Google Translate should feel ashamed of itself. Regardless, the language in this game is broken and will put off a lot of gamers. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality. Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lacklustre 2D visuals. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. One of the driving elements of this shovelware game is "achievement spam", that is to say the game features a ridiculously large number of trivial/automatically granted achievements, 72 of them, in fact. It's a damning indictment for this shovelware that people only bought it for easy achievements, and not because it has any serious merit as a real game. So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 140,000+ games on Steam? "Odysseus Kosmos and his Robot Quest (Complete Season)" has the far too high price of $15 USD, for which you could easily get any number of older AAA games. The quality problems and defects with this game makes the asking price totally unrealistic. It is impossible to recommend this to gamers here on Steam. For comparison, the $15 asking price for this game could get you games like "Valheim", "Phantasmophobia" or "SCUM". No pixelcrap is worth $15. If developers want to get paid the same kind of money as real game developers who know how to do graphics properly, they need to learn how to do graphics properly.
