Oddworld Wiki

Hi! Welcome to the Oddworld Fandom Wiki!

Recently OWI has began to publish posts on their Twitter citing articles from this site, along with content that heavily implies that the wiki is in some way official or sanctioned.

We'd like to dispel this rumor now: The Fandom Wiki is 100% community run and has in fact been long plagued by information of dubious validity, despite the valiant efforts of its editors (whose job we really appreciate, keep up the good fight!). For this reason, we'd like to ask our readers to take everything here with a great chunk of salt, especially when it comes to content without valid citations.

If you wish to fight against misinformation, you're encouraged to contribute high-quality content to the wiki—that is content that's propped up by a trusted source (examples include: Oddworld.com, Magog on the March, or The Oddworld Library) and contain no headcanons, theorizing, or any further content not directly coming from Oddworld Inhabitants.

Thank you for your attention and understanding! Happy reading and editing!

Order bomb manual

Descrition from the Abe's Oddysee manual

Until activated, order bombs are completely harmless. They are activated by pressing the red button on the top. Once activated, the "tower" will slide downward; activating a timer. Once the timer has been activated, the detonator is given several seconds to flee from the mines blast range. Immediately after activated, a timer will appear above the mine as it begins to flash violently. Upon detonation, the order bomb will destroy or kill anything within a two meter radius. Once activated, the mine cannot be disarmed.

Tips[]

  • Make sure an escape plan is ready prior to arming the mine.
