Crafting

Crafting is a gameplay mechanic used in Oddworld: Soulstorm. It allows Abe to craft various helpful items and weapons from crafting materials found in containers. Materials can also be bought from vending machines using Moolah.

Overview

In Abe's journey from the Monsaic Sanctum to the Soulstorm Brewery, he carries a backpack which he can store items in. These items range from natural to manufactured, restorative to deadly and instantly usable to initially useless. Most items can be crafted together to create items with more potency.
