## Description

After a series of mysterious glowing runes start to appear all over the world,
a reporter is assigned to investigate the strange occurrences around the
globe.

_Journalist Journey: The Eye of Odin_ is a hidden object game with some
elements from the adventure genre. Most of the time, the objective is to find
and click on all the items listed at the right side of the screen, on
locations filled with assorted paraphernalia scattered around the scenery.
Some of the list entries are spelled in red to indicate the need of an extra
step to acquire them, usually by opening a zoom view window or using one of
the available inventory tools. A few of the collected objects are stored
inside the inventory, as Polaroid photographs at the top of the screen, from
where they can be dragged and dropped over appropriate and logical portions of
the scene to perform an action or complete a pending task.

At certain points, gameplay variations and mini-games appear where the cursor
is replaced by a camera viewfinder and the player has to take photos of
specific portions of the scenery, trace mystic runes by following an outline,
reassemble picture puzzles by rotating hexagonal pieces and complete other
similar challenges. These mini-games can be optionally skipped after a few
minutes. The hint button shows the position of one of the required objects
when activated, but takes some time to recharge after use.
