Is it still worth playing?

Just Add Water's 2014 cinematic platformer, a ground up remake of Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, released for the PlayStation 4 and later many other platforms. You control Abe, a Mudokon, in a sidescrolling platformer with a 2.5D look and an emphasis on puzzle solving. His goal is to save all 299 Mudokon slaves at RuptureFarms by opening bird portals for them to escape through. Abe cannot attack or defend himself and is easily killed, so he relies on wits, and he can possess the Sligs that guard the farm. The ending depends on the rescue count, and 150 or more are needed for the Good Ending. With the ending decided by how many are saved, every one of them is still worth finding today.
