Maybe Sam?

I'm such a cunning fox:

@oddworldinc happy "Scrub Abe saving 9 Mudokons at once" day! #SAS9MAOD #Party #NotSuspicious https://t.co/iPzCkHulxu

I'm counting 12 screenshots sent to @OddworldInc

Woo! My favourite holiday of the year!

I hope there's some challenges involving screengrabs from the original Exoddus. Now THERE'S something I can get behind. Although I might have to just take a picture of the TV... the good old days before consoles could screenshot :p

Exoddus is only a few bucks on Steam, get in there you tightwad

I think I do actually own them on one steam account somewhere. But if there is a challenge I will definitely grab them on my current account. Do they have Mac support? I remember way back when they didn't.

Plot twist: The last piece of the puzzle is 75 screengrabs from "Oddworld Adventures" printed out on the GameBoy printer.

Nope. However they’ll run on anything past Windows 98!

or you could just OpenEmu like I’m doing on my current run


SoulStorm is actually a remake of Oddworld Adventures 2

"There was a deeper, darker, and more sinister story that we never got to tell," explains series creator, Lorne Lanning. "Soulstorm gives us the opportunity to flesh out more meat on the bones of an original spine, but re-tell the fable from a very different angle." - wiki

I'm guessing this ARG is going to hint on the darker side of Exoddus, maybe Ed will play some major/minor role in it. Necrum Mines is a gloomy place so i hope it goes towards the creepy way rather than the futuristic/neon one.

Hahahahahaha xD

Maybe Ed is the blind guy Abe kills in the AE cutscene

That’s been my theory from day 1.

Anyway, I added a bunch more Scrubshots over the past few hours – there’s a handful of opportunities in Zulags 3 and 4.

Brilliant. Does anyone have an idea of the count at the minute? I just saw 12 tagged to OWI from browsing through on Twitter, but I could be wrong. I don't think I saw any of Acedude's. Have all the ones we've compiled been sent in?

The ones in my imgur album have all been sent in. I gave up on adding to it because I thought there were 25 unique locations but I think that's wrong. I sent in my 5 (@ace2826), Manco I believe sent in 7, and there are more from other people. It's hard to keep count.

Maybe we can ask Ed for help? A two-digit-number is not important for them and they won't notice... *cough* *cough*

I haven't got the scrub outfit, but can anyone take screenshots with abe chanting like 1 or 2 step backwards so that the pic isn't exactly the same, so that I can upload them with my twitter account?

That's a rather naughty way of doing things. We have reason to believe that the guys at OWI are observing this thread, so they'll be on to the plan already :p What does everyone think of doing that?

Well, if we do that, we could have just ripped screenshots from let's plays right from the start... I don't approve this, we will get 25 screenshots.

I agree. Let's give this ARG our all.

Manco is on fire. I'm counting 15 screenshots.

Coming along nicely! You have no idea how tempted I am to buy N'n'T for Mac... If there was a sale on I'd probably go for it.

OWI: The only company on the planet I'd buy the same game from 17 times.

So, the chat box has a new look.

I assume nothing else has changed, but if anyone wants to run all the current phrases through it again, feel free to do so.

As far as I can tell the phrases return the same things, it might be worth running a few of the key ones through again in case it has changed. However there are a few new generic responses in there, I listed a few yesterday;

"Not telling you everything"

That mudokon on the pictures is not Abe, confirmed.

Is anyone keeping in touch with Reddit? The folk over there would probably be up for helping out if we need more hands.

Done and done...

https://www.reddit.com/r/oddworld/co..._25_photos_of/

Well, from my side - we can expect some more screens from our russian community with 757 members to date:
http://vk.com/oddworld

Whoa, thanks ODDREN, that will help a lot :D

Speaking of which does anyone more active with OWI stuff want to be a mod of that subreddit? As you can see I never do anything there. I only became one so I could resurrect it since it was owned by some random dude for his own personal use and make all the banners etc.

Xavier, I'm basically asking if you want to be a mod. It would certainly help the community with sort of stuff like this ARG.

Sure, I would love to :)

Is there a place where I can read the rules?

I'll pm you.

Slow news day on the ARG it would seem. I'm counting 19 screenshots sent in to OWI more or less... hopefully we might get a response from Reddit or another channel of communication.

We will be stuck at 23k Followers, no matter how fast we are, anyway.
We could still guess the last 4 digits then :D

More than that! we might actually guess the surprise haha xD

22.3K Followers. Wait WHAT?!? o.O

We should be getting the face any second, then!

E: 22K was the face picture, right?

23K I guess?

There are new messages from Ed, but it's gibberish, don't understand any of it

They're in Navajo code - we're not sure what to do with it though

Jump over here to this thread where we're trying to decipher it :)
