Mutazione

This game. I don’t know how to summarise it in a way that does it justice, I just loved it so much. Technically, I guess it’s a walking sim with interactive “soap opera” and garden sim minigames? But I’ve played walking sims, I’ve played interactive fiction, I’ve even played garden sim minigames, and this is really something else - even besides the fact that it’s extremely well done and polished to near perfection.

The unique art style, sort of minimal but very expressive. The story about a community of outsiders. The characters and dialogues that feel so real. The way the characters are animated. The fact that they hired someone for wildlife animations, and it was totally worth it. The encyclopedia of local plants that you can browse through. The musical gardens that you can design and tend to as much or as little as you please, then you pass by the gardens you created or sit in them with people, and you can see how you left your traces in that little world. The balance between light-heartedness and serious topics like grief and failure. The light and colours during the different times of the day. The main character’s journal notes. All the cute details. I think I screenshot like half of the game. There’s so much that’s just so immensely adorable.

INTRO

Mutazione is an indie gem, a wonderful game or maybe more like an experience. It’s extremely chill game and relaxing experience.

I can’t actually define it by genre, it’s kind of a point&click, narrative, gardening, mystery game?

STORY

You play as Kai – a simple girl who loves swimming. After the meteor hit a small town, mutants started appearing there and they live there on that destroyed island. So Kai travels there to see her ill grandpa. This is when your weird journey begins. You meet your grandpa of course and learn that he has been severely ill and he asks you for help to take care of a garden. You and Kai have no idea why at first of course, but it all makes sense in the end.
