:
And the Natives aren't exactly the machine kind, are they?
What about the Song Engine? Platforms? Zappers? Mudokons aren't as primitive as the industrial races would have us believe. Their lost heritage, though, does mean that they currently lack the engineering technology they used to create such architecture as their ancient temples.

I think the blowing debris you see in the Abe games and the Big Well movie strongly hints at wells being controlled by the movement of air more than anything else. The Big Well demonstrates that this is a natural geomorphological feature.

Doors - oftentimes they could just be ordinary doors, but sometimes they clearly have no corridor behind them. I think they must have ladders (like those seen in MO) inside.
