Oddworld New ‘n Tasty is the perfect example of what a remake should be; it keeps a fantastic game and just adds every conceivable thing to improve it. There are too many awesome little touches to mention.

Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty is an excellent example of how to remake a game. A must for returning fans and newcomers alike.

Molecada Nutella que não sabe o que é um jogo bom. Jogadores de Freefire não deveriam ter direito de dar uma nota.

A remake should be something that improves what can be improved while not touching the soul of the original game, and New'n Tasty accomplishes this with high marks.

Minor technical problems aside, Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty is a game that recognises the limitations and shortcomings of the original. It addresses these, somehow making 17-year-old mechanics malleable, and shapes them into a mould that painlessly accepts contemporary production standards.

Whether you have or haven't played Abe's Oddysee, you haven't played New N Tasty. This HD remake is more than a simple reskin of nostalgia, and offers a compelling adventure with contemporary design that will satisfy most anyone's puzzle-platformer appetite.

Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty is everything that you could hope for from a remake: old issues have been resolved, the levels now flow much more naturally, and the world has never looked better.

When it works, Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty is a beautiful, quirky, and devious puzzle platformer that deserves a spot alongside the likes of LIMBO, Another World and the original Abe’s Oddysee in the gaming canon. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work nearly often enough.

This game is the JAM! It takes an already fun/challenging game and bumps the graphics and performance way up. I played this game to death when I was kid and I'm pumped that I get to do the same now.

Questo gioco, remake di una vera e propria pietra miliare nel campo dei videogiochi, uscito negli anni '90 per PS1, è sembra ombra di dubbio un prodotto riuscito, realizzato con cuore e passione. La grafica è semplicemente sublime, ogni livello e sfondo è stato riprodotto in modo certosino in ogni suo dettaglio e particolarità. Tuttavia, come accade quasi ad ogni remake, anche a questo gioco manca quella magia che ancora oggi caratterizza il capitolo da cui prende spunto, difettando quell'atmosfera cupa, spenta e grottesca che fu l'emblema del primo Oddworld, in favore di uno stile eccessivamente "cartoonesco", fuori luogo per i temi trattati nel gioco. Decisamente positivo è l'introduzione di un sistema di salvataggio rapido (il cd. QuickSave) e la possibilità di chiamare simultaneamente tutti i i Mudokon in una sola volta, anche se il gioco finisce per essere, forse, molto meno frustrante e difficile rispetto al capitolo originale. Da ultimo, ma non ultimo di importanza, questo remake è fin troppo identico a Oddysee, d'accordo che si tratta di un remake e quindi non possono operarsi modificazioni sostanziali, ma questo non impedisce che si possa, anzi si debba effettuare qualche piccolo cambiamento, anche solo formale, in modo da rendere questo gioco, un nuovo gioco anche per chi, come me, neofita non è più da troppi anni, come ad esempio l'ubicazione delle aree segrete; l'allungamento di certi livelli, come le Linee di Monsaic, Paramonia e Scrabania, così da rendere maggiormente l'idea di un lungo viaggio, duro e faticoso, altrimenti che senso avrebbe spendere soldi per acquistare una copia dell'originale, decisamente meno magico rispetto a quest'ultimo? Solo per la grafica? Ma fu proprio quella grafica a rendere Abe's Oddysee unico nel suo genere. Queste mancanze, dunque, rendono il gioco fin troppo veloce e troppo poco longevo per chi, come me, conosce Oddysee come le proprie tasche, potendosi gustare nuovamente Abe, per sole, al massimo, 3 ore.

I never played the original but enjoyed this game. Good graphics and interesting story and cutscenes. However felt the jumping and physics of the game were very challenging making it frustrating. Also it was only until halfway through the game that I realised how to actually save the creatures, and by then half had been lost.

New 'n' Tasty was touted as a remaster of the classic Abe's Oddysee, and although on a surface level this would appear to be the case, this new edition lacks much of the charm of the original. Due to the 2.5D visuals and active camera, the gameplay and puzzles of the game have had to undergo significant changes to suit this new perspective format. These unfortunately work to its detriment, simplifying previously complex obstacles and making the solution to others unclear. Furthermore, blatant in-game advertising and an overuse of bloom effects instead of real lighting and detail gut this title of any soul.

Lackluster remake of a broken game, similar to DuckTales. Story is extremely slow. Redo after redo after redo makes this content a 4/10 due to minimal interesting music, and that's it. STAY AWAY from this and spend your money properly on better games.
