Finally Android users can enjoy Alto's Odyssey, the sequel to the successful and precious Alto's Adventure. A game of skill that stands out not only for its mechanics, which hook you from the first minute, but also for its visual finish, which is outstanding. On this second occasion we leave the snow behind to enter the desert. Something that does not lose color or settings, playing with the weather and the different positions of the sun to leave us speechless contemplating the landscape without paying attention to what our character is doing.
But in this article we are not going to talk about the visual benefits of this title, which repeat and magnify what was already seen in the first edition. We are going to talk about five keys that you must master to get the most out of Alto's Odyssey. And the thing is that the game has much more to offer than beautiful landscapes and a character who slides sinuously through the dunes.
Complete missions
You may like to enjoy the experience without worrying about scoring and missions, but you'll be missing out on much of the content. And it is that, especially at the beginning, the missions are presented as a tutorial. If you don't comply, other elements of the game will not be unlocked to complete the experience. For example, you will not discover the magnets until you have to complete their mission. And believe me, they are a very precious good to get improvements, characters, new tables or items from the workshop.
So take it more or less easy, but take it seriously. Go completing the missions as you can, with one eye on the enjoyment and another on what you have to do. That way you'll end up enjoying everything this skill title has to offer.
The workshop
Spend everything you collect. What use are so many gold coins to you when you get bored of the game? Pass by the workshop and get upgrades You can choose between elements such as tables that facilitate the gameplay to go further and complete more missions, or tools to improve the magnets and other title items. In this way you will improve your chances of getting new elements and evolving in the title. There's nothing more rewarding than unlocking new characters or finding new, more distant settings to glide through.Check out the workshop when you have a bulging account of gold coins.
The combos
Anything goes to score points in Alto's Odyssey. The key is that you chain it. One thing after another but without losing momentum. Jumping cartwheels, bouncing on hot air balloons (new to this game), sliding down walls, jumping over rocks, breaking pots, grinding ropes… If you do all of this again In a row you will increase the point multiplier, achieving new goals, in addition to lengthening your scarf considerably. Also, when you master the technique, the game will be more entertaining, and you will know how to take advantage of each dune in your favor. Practice, practice and more practice.
Zen Mode
Yes, dune sliding is fun even if there are no goals to accomplish. And what better than enjoying the visual settings and gameplay without any pressure? The creators of Alto's Odyssey know this, and that's why they've introduced Zen mode. Swipe from right to left in the main menu to find it. Here you can enjoy the game even if you fall.
