The Super Mario one was better.

All jokes aside, "Odyssey" is a level that just hasn't aged well. The designs are overall cluttered, messy and lack a strong sense of cohesion. The level is meant to be part of the 'Magic Gauntlet'. However, it's a level that's really lacking in any element of 'magic', with the only real hints this level is meant to be magic-themed being a few potions here and there at the start, a depiction of Harry Potter's glasses and scar, a floating spell book, and a small monster wearing a wizard hat (which is admittedly kinda cute). Aside from these features, the level could just be interpreted or viewed as a typical early 2.1 level. The worst offense that "Odyssey" makes is its tedious gameplay. Its second half is rather annoying to play through, especially considering the fact that any death here means you need to make your way through the level's sleepy opening once more. A sluggish beginning only acts as an impediment to any semblance of enjoyment when the player will probably need to replay it due to the shoddily-constructed drop (the ship transition at 65% is particularly a nuisance).

(It's better than "Empyrean" though!)
