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!

Gum-rot!

Gum Rot Advertisement from Vyyker's Labs

"Hey kids, tired of the same old sugary snacks? Need something sweet to get you to lunchtime? Well, now there's Gum-rot - a scientific revolution in man-made sweetening technology. Make your teeth melt with the unholy sweetness of a pure Gum-rot sugar rush. Gum-rot: Mother nature don't know d*&k about sweet!" ~ Vyykers Labs: Products

Gum Rot was an artificial sweetener made by Vykkers Labs to sweeten foods and highly advertised to children. Fuzzles that were fed had their gums turn blue with some signs of decay, while their teeth went yellow and fell out. The Fuzzle Sasha was force fed 7000 teaspoons a day for weeks on end.

Gum Rot, unlike other sweeteners and sugars, did not dispense any crystals or dissoluble cubes. Instead, Gum Rot resembles toothpaste, with the texture to boot. The Gum Rot paste was blue/turquoise and purple. Due to being a paste, it is unknown how one is able to squeeze out Gum Rot in the tablet-like dispenser.

In the archived Test a Fuzzle flash game, it only took a small amount of Gum Rot to cause the test Fuzzle to lose almost all of its teeth. Hence, it can be stated that Gum Rot was a highly concentrated and thickened glucose syrup. As such, only a minute amount of Gum Rot is needed to sweeten a beverage.

Like Humphrey's other "inventive" products, this dosen't really serve many purposes apart from the catering business and isn't an advancement in science.
