Two modes, one app. Abe speaks. Recreate the GameSpeak you remember from Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. Fart, chant, whistle and growl as well as give Abe's famous commands. Speak into the microphone and hear Abe repeat it back to you in his voice! Abe says. Challenge Abe to a game of memory whilst you attempt to keep a straight face as he laughs, whistles and farts. How many rounds can you go before you forget the sequence?
