Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review: You want weird? Look no further than Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. Mild-mannered factory worker Abe has discovered that his employers at Rupture Farms are planning to use his fellow Mudokons as the main ingredient in their latest product, Mudokon Pops. Like any decent Mudokon, Abe aims to rescue his peers. He also is determined to seek justice in his battle to bring down the corrupt Rupture Farms. You help Abe carry out his heroic duties by possessing enemies, participating in action sequences worthy of an Indiana Jones flick and talking to fellow Mudokons using the game's impressive "gamespeak" feature, which allows multiple characters to communicate with each other using your control pad.
The graphics in Abe's Oddyssee convey a unique personality, which is often lacking in platform action games. Still, a few pretty game environments will not distract you from the devious puzzles scattered throughout the game. Fortunately, you never run out of lives in Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. Instead, Abe rematerialises immediately after you "die" and the game continues from the last checkpoint you reached. This approach encourages exploration, which you will want to do anyway since this is one of the most beautiful 2-D games we've seen. --T. Byrl Baker

I read a bad review for this, and couldn't believe the points the reviewer made - they can all be explained =p.
First off - The game is so strategic - the point is not to be seen by a bad guy, unless you have an escape route figured. That's what makes it so clever.
Secondly, the humour? It was like, 11 years ago lol - so it's not that modern, but still makes you smile. And besides, the voices alone are enough to make you giggle - just listen to them say 'hello' XD.
You do die after getting shot once by a Slig (enemy), but if you possess a Slig, you find Sligs also die from one shot. Not to mention, there are numerous continue points and you have infinite lives.
Honestly, this game is so much more clever than hundreds ... Read More:

Abe's oddeysee is the best platform game you can get it's brilliant.the grafics are great and the gamespeak is really good you can talk to fellow mudokons and lead to their destination. This game is not easy to start with their are many tasks to go through and many hidden places around rapturefarms. In order to save enough people to complete these games finding the hidden rooms is best as you need to save at least 50 mudokons to survive the game at the end if you don't you do die and have to start all over again. I say the absolute best think about this game is you have infinity lives you can not die during the game which is brilliant coz,if you die it don't matter you just carry on from where you died or at you last check point which ...

Watch a friend foul up before attempting yourself, getting to the end and then making a fool of yourself by falling of a cliff, hilarious!

This game is more than just a game it is a perfect example of a fantantic game.The 'scrabs'(an animal on the game)are like real creatures Creepy and foul. It is like you are in a mysticle world. The graphics are perfect.There is no doubt about ODD WORLD RULES because of the story line.

Abe's Oddworld lives up to its name. Initally the game appears to be completely without reason, however as you learn new tricks, pick-up clues and begin to realise the point of the game you are transfixed. It took my wife & I several weeks to complete the game (with the help of a walkthrough only once!) and it has got to be one of the BEST platform games ever! There are elements of skill, strategy, shoot to kill and stealth involved so everyone should find something to their liking. Buy it, you WILL NOT be disappointed. The graphics are great, even for a PS One.
