I recently came across an excellent official map of Oddworld. Click it for the ginormous 3300×2435 14.14MB version:

You can clearly see that a huge amount of thought and work went into it; it really puts the Glade of Dreams map to shame.

By the way, Stranger’s Wrath is getting an upgraded PSN rerelease.

Wow... that's GREAT. :D
I see you also uploaded it to photobucket, which is also great.

Photobucket’s not that great. It shrunk the image on me so I had to upload it to Mediafire as well.

I already knew that map and yes, the quality is by far superior to the Glade of Dreams map. If a World Map of Rayman Origins looked like this in-game...

I’ve just started replaying Abe’s Oddysee for the first time in several years. I forgot how great it was. This time I’ll save all the Mudokons. I swear it.

Good luck. Don't forget to look for everywhere, maybe around 25% is very well hidden.

Both the first games are great, being Exoddus even better than Oddysee. I can't wait for the Oddbox. Too bad it is very very delayed.

I’ve finished replaying both Abe’s Oddysee and Abe’s Exoddus. I did my best but it seems that I missed a couple of Mudokons in each game...

That happens to me too, i've got a save file with all mudokons in the first disc of Abe's Exoddus.
But i ALWAYS seem to miss some in Slig Barracks/Bonewerkz/Feeco Depot or SoulStorm Brewery.

There are Mudokons really really well hidden, despite of we thinking that we are very aware and when you complete the game, you notice that a certain ammount is missing.

EDIT: The Oddboxx was released in STEAM 3 days ago according to the official website.

I want this...

They’re remaking Abe’s Oddysee. This will be amazing.

I've bought the Oddbox by the way. :P

I can't wait to try out Munch's Oddysee, the download is taking a while.

Wouldn't that be the fifth? Or is there one that you're not counting?

I'm not counting Stranger's Wrath, since Abe isn't in it.

You’re not supposed to count Abe’s Exoddus either. It’s a ‘bonus game’ in the words of the developers.
