About

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee is a classic adventure platformer released in 1997 that redefined the genre by putting players in control of a vulnerable, cunning protagonist rather than a traditional action hero. The game combines puzzle-solving, stealth mechanics, and platforming challenges within a dark, industrial world filled with hostile enemies and environmental hazards. Its distinctive pre-rendered background graphics and CG cutscenes created an atmospheric experience that still holds up visually today.

This 1997 title is extremely accessible on modern PC hardware, making it ideal for benchmarking older systems or testing baseline performance on budget GPUs. Most mid-range graphics cards from the last decade will easily handle this game at maximum settings and achieve well over 100 FPS at 1080p resolution. Even integrated graphics on entry-level CPUs can comfortably run Oddworld at high frame rates, making it an excellent reference point for performance testing across various hardware tiers.

With an 83/100 rating, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee remains a landmark puzzle-platformer that influenced countless games in the adventure genre. If you appreciate clever level design, atmospheric storytelling, and challenging puzzles over fast-paced action, this classic is absolutely worth experiencing.

Performance profile

Released in September 1997, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee predates modern GPU acceleration as we know it today. It runs effortlessly on virtually any current hardware, including integrated graphics and entry-level laptops — framerate is limited by the engine, not the GPU.

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

Abe is a Mudokon, a member of a once prosperous race which has now been enslaved by the Glukkons, forced to work in their huge corporations. The food factories have found a new type of meat, delicious to all the inhabitants, though no one knows the recipe. Following his stomach, Abe eavesdrops on the corporate leaders' conversation, and makes the most frightening and disgusting discovery: his own race is that secret delicious food. Alas, Abe has been spotted, and the guards are marching towards him. He must escape, but he can't leave his friends to the mercy of the Glukkons and their henchmen. He must rescue as many as he can, and tell the world the truth about what he has found out.
