Odyssey is a Classic Mac adventure and role-playing game by Nick Aschbrenner with TrailBlaze Software, distributed via Info-Mac. You play Bill Fey, Alaska's finest at search and rescue operations, called into action by an urgent fax while the rest of your team is away in Anchorage trying to control a disaster.
Setting and premise
The story is rooted in the Alaskan wilderness, casting the player as a lone search-and-rescue specialist who must respond to an emergency without backup. The opening fax kicks off an investigation that drives the adventure forward.
Genre and style
Listed by the author as Adventure / Role-playing, Odyssey blends exploration and narrative with character-driven mechanics typical of late-1990s Mac adventure shareware.
System requirements
Version 1.0 of Odyssey requires Mac OS 8.0 or higher, a PowerPC processor, and a monitor capable of at least 256 colors. It is distributed as a BinHex-encoded download from the Info-Mac archive.
Updates
A separate 1.0-to-1.1 updater (odyssey-10-to-11-updt.hqx) was later released to bring the original installation up to the 1.1 revision, suggesting active maintenance from the author after the initial release.
