Released in conjunction with the motion picture of the same name, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief lets gamers take control of the titular teenage hero and his allies as they battle the most terrifying beasts Greek mythology has to offer. Players explore Camp Half-Blood, the Underworld, and Olympus, among other locations, searching the environments to unlock new areas and engaging in turn-based combat. Completing quests and engaging in battles provides experience points that can be used to level up and acquire new skills for every character, and the combat was designed to encourage teamwork.
