Abe is a Mudokon floor-waxer at RuptureFarms, a meat-processing plant. After discovering its plan to turn the workers into a new snack, he escapes and sets out to free his fellow Mudokons.
Move through side-scrolling platforming stages, solving environmental puzzles and avoiding guards, beasts, traps, and machinery. Abe relies on sneaking, timing, and clever use of his surroundings rather than direct combat.
Search levels for hidden paths and Mudokons to rescue, while navigating increasingly dangerous areas. The remake adds continuous scrolling environments, quick saves, and optional old-school control settings.
In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy revisiting Abe's story and its strange, darkly humorous world, with nostalgia, atmosphere, music, and refreshed visuals recurring as sources of appeal. Players also praise the puzzle-platforming, the challenge of rescuing Mudokons, and the satisfaction of learning difficult sections. Some reviewers, however, find Abe's movement imprecise or clunky, and the remake's presentation and feel draw mixed comparisons with the original.
