Bless your hearts, ARG solvers
EnterprisingOddworldfans have helped unearth an image forOddworld: Soulstorm, this year’s follow-up toOddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty, as part of an alternate-reality game. You can see the high-res version below, but a word of warning: don’t fixate on the cracked fingernails like I did.Ahh, too late.
Admittedly, I wasn’t awarean ARGwas even happening, but with so many developers creating these community-bonding brainteasers for their games, it’s easy to lose track of who’s doing what and when. In this case, though, it’s fairly easy to catch up after the fact — there’s anofficial recapand everything. The community still has several more images to unlock, so the puzzle-solving is far from over.
As forSoulstorm, Oddworld Inhabitants describes it as “a complete story retake inspired by our original tale.” I know some of you are way intoOddworld— especially when it comes toExoddus— and with that in mind, it’s just terrific to see Lorne Lanning and co. continue to do their thing.
