One of the most well - known cyclops stories is from Greek mythology, the encounter of Odysseus and the Cyclops Polyphemus. Odysseus and his men were trapped in the cyclops' cave. He tricked the cyclops by saying his name was 'Nobody' and then blinded him to escape.

There are also cyclops in some video games, like in the 'God of War' series where they are fearsome foes.
