To my ears, Scrabs howled and shrieked in the Abe games. In Munch’s Oddysee, the Scrab in the good ending most definitely roars. In gameplay, I can make out three kinds of noise. One sounds almost like the woof of a chain smoking dog. A similar one sounds like a seal hissing. The closest I could come up with for the last one was a seal doing an impression of a dolphin, but monkey chittering sounds about right.

Paramites hiss, click, and holler. When a Paramite is being attacked by bees, it sounds like someone pushing their finger across a damp surface. I can’t think of an onomatopoeia to describe that. In MO, they clearly just grunt, oink and squeal.

Fleeches I’d always thought of as croaking. Slig BS sounds I’ve always described as a honk and an insect chirp.
