Exoddus I feel does a fantastic job at expanding on Oddworld's universe. Particularly during the second half of the game. Each of the factories or areas run by Glukkons or Sligs you go to have some part in the whole Brew making process.

Necrum Mines gets the bones, Bonewerks grinds up the bones, Soulstorm uses the bones for the brew, and Fee Co. serves as the middleman via transporting everything from one place to another. It's a very neat way of showing how big the Magog Cartel is, how it works, and how much influence it has on Oddworld.

All that being said, I still prefer Oddysee in terms of story. It's not too heavy of a story, but the usage of visuals, symbolism, atmosphere, and the traditional three act structure made it a very compelling journey for me. Plus I just felt the game was paced a little better overall.
