If you choose Odysseus, you begin your adventure as you are about to leave Troy on your voyage home to Ithaca.(Unknown to you this will take you ten whole years, because of something you did to upset the god Poseidon.) Where will you head for first ...?

If you choose Telemachus, you are about to hear news of your father for the first time in nearly ten years. How can you help him...?

If you choose Penelope, you are about to be very surprised by your son's behaviour ...

Who do you want to be?

• Odysseus, favorite of Zeus, sacker of cities?
• The thoughtful Telemachus?
• Penelope, the gracious daughter of Icarius?
