More than 80 characters have been remodeled and re-textured. With remastered visuals supporting a nice resolution of 720p, you’ll instantly notice a huge difference. That’s not to say the game doesn’t look great. However, how it’s presented as a whole is what matters the most.Ĭonsidering this is a HD remake (in other words, a visual upgrade) of the original, I wouldn’t be surprised if most of you expected it’s just about the graphics. Despite the fact that the game’s premise is fairly simple, it’s also to a certain degree very unique. As you move through the game you encounter different types of enemies and NPC’s and eventually learn more about what’s going on – either through cutscenes or on your own. You take control of Stranger – a bounty hunter who needs to get the world rid of various criminals and Outlaws in order to raise money for a mysterious life-saving operation. The title originally debuted on the Microsoft Xbox as an exclusive in 2005 and frankly, even though not many things have changed gameplay-wise since, it doesn’t look outdated at all. So what are the odds that Just Add Water got this right? Let’s take a look… Give them something else, especially if it’s related to such a beloved and popular franchise, and they will eat you alive. Gamers are smart and they know exactly what they want. The more information that was released, the more excited people have become. Oddly enough, as time passed by and images of the game were popping-up online, fans started realizing that this remake was going to be different. When Stranger’s Wrath HD was announced, many fans of the Oddworld series, including myself, were initially skeptical, knowing how cheap remakes in general sometimes can be.
