The value story
Across all 20 discounts in the 4 years tracked, the median cut is 66 percent, about 12 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
It is pricier than 99 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 86 percent. INSIDE ($24.99, scores 65) outscores it, and so does Greak: Memories of Azur ($19.99, scores 38). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

Ok i need to sincerely apologize to New N Tasty because this game has lost all aura of what Oddworld even is, the entire style, mood, atmosphere, story, is not even the same anymore, this is actually a different game and it feels like a weird indie game not and Oddworld game, and i am offended by this re-imagining of Exodus, literally my favorite game of all time and i hate it so far, and it seems to me they want a...

As a fan of the Oddworld series, I unfortunately can't recommend this, purely due to in-game glitches that cause the player not to be able to progress. It's a puzzle-based game, so it's natural to explore every avenue, but when you can't progress past a level because: - a bridge doesn't show up that's supposed to be there - one of the allies you're supposed to be collecting is bugged and appears to be in a wall and...
In a ruined, devastated world, a captured species must be saved before extinction. Abe embarks on a cinematic adventure to rescue all his friends. The controls are absurd, the story involves outsmarting enemies and outsmarting them through various puzzles or cunning tricks. It has a beautiful world that never gets boring. Needless to say, it's inspired by the Metroid series.
