Summary
Oddworld is a gaming franchise comprised of five platform-adventure games that began with the release of Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee in 1997.
The games follow the story of Abe, a factory worker who has had his mouth sewn shut, and who tries to escape his circumstances whilst uniting his fellow workers.
The games have overt satire and commentary on capitalism, with issues such as factory farming, consumerism and capitalism addressed.
The franchise also employs a dark, yet humorous, aesthetic throughout.

You can find the full franchise on Fanatical for a limited time for the price of one dollar.
