The Oddworld franchise is a gamer’s treasure chest, and sadly, only people who have played the games can attest to that statement. Oddworld has never been a game that sold lots and lots of copies, but when it comes to uniqueness, the game truly delivers -- each game is different from the one before it, and each new game brings innovation to setting, story, aesthetics, and gameplay.
Kids, please take note that Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath was first released as an Xbox game – yes, the original Xbox in 2005. The game has now been re-released on a number of different platforms including the PC and iOS. Now it's coming to Android, but on Amazon's Fire devices, though it is also available exclusively on the NVIDIA Shield Tablet – hopefully only for the time being.
Since the game is being sold via the Amazon App Store, the game can also be played on the Kindle Fire HD or devices better than that. Stranger's Wrath is an action-adventure game, with the user playing the Stranger, a bounty hunter. The game shifts elements from third-person to sections where platforming is used, and into first-person when you want to use the game’s very cool weaponry – which includes a crossbow that fires slugs, bees, and exploding bats.
The Android version of this game will most likely have on-screen controls, but we hope it will have support for external controller, especially for the Kindle TV. If you have the NVIDIA Shield Tablet, you should totally go for this game.
