Oddworld New 'n' Tasty

A faithful remaster of the classic Oddworld platform-adventure for mobile.

Classic Oddworld Reimagined for Android

Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty brings the beloved platforming adventure of Abe to mobile devices, delivering a faithful remake of the original Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee. This Android version combines polished 3D visuals with the signature puzzle-platform mechanics that set the franchise apart, while introducing a new generation to a cult favorite.

Gameplay and Design

Players step into the shoes of Abe, a humble Mudokon who stumbles upon a dark corporate conspiracy and must escape the dystopian RuptureFarms. As Abe, you will need to sneak past guards, solve environmental puzzles, and guide fellow Mudokons to safety. The level design stays true to the original, capturing the tense atmosphere and unique charm that fans remember.

Controls are a decisive factor for any mobile adaptation. While the game supports HID controllers for those seeking a console-like experience, the on-screen controls, though serviceable, can feel imprecise for complex maneuvers. This may add an extra layer of challenge to already intricate platforming sections, particularly for users accustomed to physical gamepads.

Visuals and Performance

This remaster delivers enhanced graphics with detailed character models and atmospheric environments, utilizing variable resolution based on device capabilities. Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty requires a relatively powerful device, recommending at least a 2.0 GHz dual core CPU, 2GB RAM, and a modern GPU. The in-game performance settings allow users to tweak visuals for smooth gameplay, although some older or budget Android models may struggle.

User Experience and Compatibility

The nostalgia factor is strong, and longtime fans will appreciate revisiting memorable moments with updated visuals and sound design. However, certain technical hiccups persist. Some users experience an issue where the game mistakenly detects a connected controller, preventing the on-screen controls from appearing—effectively rendering the game unplayable until addressed with a patch. Compatibility is also limited, with several device chipsets officially unsupported.

Additional Features

Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty supports cloud saves via Google Play Games, allowing seamless synchronization across devices. Achievements and leaderboards add replay value for those seeking to master the game or compete with friends.
