This update to the first game is a mostly successful reimagining. The game play feels dumbed down, and the controls less tight, but overall it’s fun. This MacOS version sadly has a lot of sound bugs, which really affects the atmosphere. ### 3/5 — I was so excited to play this game *2025-10-22, version 1.0.5* The audio didn’t work and the controls don’t match the timing of the game and it wasn’t worth the money I spent on it ### 3/5 — Opening *2025-03-26, version 1.0.5* The opening cutscene is really long-I mean long. I lost interest. ### 5/5 — Won’t open *2025-01-06, version 1.0.5* I just bought this game on my iPhone 15 pro max and it won’t even open. Immediately crashes. Edit: it started to open normally after the first 5 or 6 tries ### 5/5 — Крутая игра когдато в детстве играл на ps1 и сложности не плохи *2024-11-07* Крутая игра когдато в детстве играл на ps1 и сложности не плохи ### 5/5 — Best 2d game! *2024-10-23* Best 2d gave ever! I played this game back in 1999, on PS 1 , without a sd card, never been a torture(kidding), just went back and perfect it! ### 4/5 — ps4 gamepad issue *2024-08-13* There's an issue, when I plug my ps4 controller, and press an r1 button, Abe is running and drop the grenade at the same time, need salvation! ### 5/5 — love this game *2024-03-10, version 1.0.5* i have played this game so many times throughout the years. It is awesome. :) so fun and challenging esp when you find all the "hidden" places and save all the Mudokons. :) ### 4/5 — I love the game but please fix bug *2023-10-19* I have played this game sense I was young on Xbox. I didn’t get very far but now I’m at the part where you return to rupture farms and I’m part 4 of an area I got stuck in a corner with 3 enemies snipping me or killing me before I can move and eventually you become immortal to them and other things only way to die is to explode yourself but it plays the respawn animation with the butterfly’s and it doesn’t respawn you the butterflies keep waiting for you to respawn but you don’t so you have to reset the game. I will up my review to 5 Stars if you fix this bug please and thank you. ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2023-08-31, version 1.0.5* Honestly after reading some of the reviews about the controls ect… i wasn’t expecting this to be any good to play. WOW i loved it, graphics are brill. Im just sad i finished the game. The controls take abit to get used to but you can change them to suit you. You can also autosave wherever you are so you dont have to go back to the checkpoint. Absolutely brilliant game and a bargin at 4.99❤️ ### 5/5 — Perfect *2023-08-23, version 1.0.5* Just like the original. Adjustable controls to suit. 🩷 ### 5/5 — More, please *2023-08-23, version 1.0.5* From the world where things that ain’t broke aren’t fixed comes this wonderful remake of the PlayStation classic, that had us escaping mythical sludge food factories distributing our companions’ canned flesh. Gross and charming in equal measure, the original was so utterly unique that none of the non-platform sequels had anyone in any way interested... at all... and I had a huge fear that this would be a disaster of a ‘remake’ or emulator or whatever it was supposed to be. But it’s great. All of the charm of the original remains, with the control system entirely intact. Comments of caution include potential lack of appropriateness of the controls for iPad (it’s a little tricky to handle without physical controls, but many, many things are). Also, I remember the backgrounds and background detail being a little richer, so I wonder why a full 3D rework was done for this version, but it looks very nice all the same. These are minor gripes and I had great fun playing this. Huge nostalgia for me and such fun for anyone new to the franchise. ### 4/5 — A great experience, a few things need fixing *2023-07-28* Beautiful visually, and good touch controls. Playing on m1 ipad, there were a couple of issues: 1. Achievements not working achievements seem to be stuck at 1% 2. A few visual glitches such as flickering grass (especially in outdoor areas) 3. Text that is displayed between areas (loading) is not readable (dissappears too quickly) Otherwise great ### 5/5 — Greatest side scroller franchise ever *2023-07-21, version 1.0.5* The cinematic cutscenes, the depth, the gameplay. It’s a master piece. There’s no disputing the effort it takes to make such a great anti-hero / protagonist so like able. Abraham Lure is a great example what it means to be put in a position of power and influence for no particular reason. Labeled “the savior of the mudokens”, Abe is by far one of the greatest protagonists. He didn’t choose the life of being martyr, he just happened to be pushed in that position. Personally, I prefer Munches Oddysee, but the story in all these games is what I thrive on ### 5/5 — Original classic *2023-06-22, version 1.0.5* Used to play this years back on the PlayStation. Great to see it back. ### 5/5 — Leider keine deutsche Sprachausgabe *2023-03-01* Echt schade ,dass es keine deutsche Sprachausgabe hat ( am besten wären beide,englisch und deutsch) Das Xbox original hatte beide Sprachausgabe ,wo ist das Problem dies auch hier zu machen . Das selbe gilt für stranger und munch. Stranger is ganz schlimm ,man hat zwar die Option Untertitel einzustellen aber es erscheinen nur Untertitel in Story relevanten Zenen Alle anderen Charaktere die man anredet haben keinen Untertitel . Ganz schlimm echt dar sie teilweise echt böse Akzente sprechen . Bei Munch gibt es nicht einmal deutsche Bildschirmtexte, echt sehr traurig. Bitte liebe Entwickler Gebt uns bitte noch die deutschen Sprachdateien Für alle drei spiele ,diese Dateien existieren doch und für Munch noch die deutschen Bildschirmtexte. Bitte bitte,dann wäre es ein Riesen Genuss ,noch mehr als es so schon ist. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes constantly almost unplayable *2025-11-05, version 1.0.5* The title says it all. Game constantly crashes on IOS barely playable honestly ive played it twice in the couple months ive have it. Mainly because now the 2nd time I go to play it I forgot it constantly crashed until it did it again which didn’t take very long ### 1/5 — Elum glitch *2024-05-27, version 1.0.5* There is a glitch where elum falls off a pulley and is never seen again. Cannot proceed with game. ### 1/5 — BUGGED *2023-10-06, version 1.0.5* Bugs. East and hard difficulty setting does not work neither do achievements. Please refund my money! ### 1/5 — I am not able to run forward into the next level! *2023-05-13, version 1.0.5* Got to the temple and was loving the game, however, you can not run into the temple as there is no forward button! Anyone know how to get in the temple as I’ve pressed every control button to get in! ### 1/5 — Glitch and no support *2022-12-16, version 1.0.5* Great game. Played on N64 and don’t mood much on a small mobile screen. But I don’t get Shrykull power when it’s given and I can’t advance levels. No app support, not even on socials, therefore 1 star. ### 1/5 — Glitchy & Poor Controls *2022-02-09, version 1.0.5* Having played the original many times on the PS1, I have to say I’m very disappointed by the iOS remake. Very glitchy to the point it is now impossible to progress any further. Also no thought has been given to the touch controls when it comes to transitions between rolling and running, which is required for some puzzles. I can’t believe this hasn’t been playtested! ### 1/5 — Crashes more than a smack addict *2021-04-24, version 1.0.5* I brought the bundle as I loved oddworld when I was a young’un. But every time I play Abe or Munch, the game freezes pretty much as soon as the game starts. Fix this and I’ll give you all the stars you want ### 1/5 — Не то *2021-03-06* Тот, кто играл в оригинальную игру, видит, что совершено не тот визуальный стиль. Топорная анимация. Не те тайминги. Все значительно хуже. Лучше бы просто выпустили оригинал. Пусть даже на старой графике. Было бы значительно лучше. ### 1/5 — Не на весь экран ipad pro 11 *2020-10-06* Боже мой айпаду про 11 дюймов уже два года на рынке! И все еще не можете сделать игру на весь экран? Деньги взяли а пройти не могу, противно играть не полноценно в окошке с рамками, что за бред? Исправте, это исправлю оценку и отзыв, а то шарашкина контора какая то! И так на всех играх от этого разработчика! Позорище ### 1/5 — Elums ruin this game *2020-06-20, version 1.0.5* 4 days of trying to do the canyon jump. Over it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 1997 never looked so Good *2026-04-25, version 1.0.5* A 90s nostalgia trip. Well worth a look. Still just as relevant today. Visually stunning. Tough as nails. ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-01-05, version 1.0.5* Glad to have this game available on my iPhone. Enjoyed it back in the day. Wish the game play was a little better though. ### 5/5 — It’s Wonderful! *2025-11-27, version 1.0.5* Such a great classic game and finally on my cell phone where I can pick it up and play it anywhere anytime I want. And the quality looks so good. The updated graphics are amazing. I can’t wait to see more classic games make their way to the App Store. ### 5/5 — HALT! *2025-10-22, version 1.0.5* The Sligs and Glukkons were going to make Mudokon Pops, but work is halted due to Abe shutting down all of RuptureFarms. ### 5/5 — Tasty mind treat *2025-07-05, version 1.0.5* Love this game , all the puzzles. One of the greatest ### 5/5 — Miracle *2025-05-18* Thank you for this truly the best game from our childhood. Please tell us - Exodus will be port on IOS too? We are all waiting 👍 ### 5/5 — Лучший *2025-04-22* Идеальный Эйб! Жаль без русской озвучки. Но все равно топ ### 5/5 — What a classic! *2025-04-03, version 1.0.5* Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty, or should I say, New ‘n’ Tasty! - Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, is a remake of Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee, which was a classic game on the PS1. ### 5/5 — I love gamen 👽 *2025-02-19, version 1.0.5* Very Good ### 5/5 — Great game. *2025-02-16, version 1.0.5* It’s difficult and extremely enjoyable. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
