Flares are one of the many items presented in Oddworld: Soulstorm. It is found in several levels, most notably within Sorrow Valley and Necrum Mines.
Overview[]
Flares are primarily used to light up dark environments. However, they can be used to ignite pools of Soulstorm Brew. This is especially useful when creating traps in front of slig guard houses.
By itself, the Flare lasts around a minute before being extinguished. Unlike other light producing items like Moongrass or the Hand Torch, flares can be found in more than one level. When one runs out, Abe can throw it to reignite the thrown flare and equip a new lit one.
It is also one of the few items that can scare Sleeches. It protects Abe from all sides (whereas the Hand Torch only shines in one direction at a time), although its effective range is much shorter.
