A Twist on Homer’s

Odyssey

Land of Myth: Homer's Odyssey™ is a tabletop role-playing game adventure in the tradition of the ancient Greek authors, playwrights, and artists who told the Homeric tales their own way. The game adds a new twist to the exploits of Odysseus, Greek hero of the Trojan War, whose journey home lasted ten long years.
