Mutant Beach

Mutant Beach is a video game in the adventure genre developed by ToonSki! Productions and published by Inline Design originally released in 1991. It is currently playable on Mac.

Mutant Beach takes place on a small tropical island. Someone has stolen the nose of the Great Mohawk Idol. This, of course, makes the Great Idol very angry and he unleashes the twelve idols of Idol City, who turn the island upside down and mutate its inhabitants into strange creatures. Only one of the islanders is lucky, the native Nick, who is fishing when he finds a note in a bottle informing him of what has happened. Nick is now the only one who can save the village. To do so he has to retrieve the Nose and return it to Mohawk.

Mutant Beach is more like an adventure game although with some action elements. The player takes control of the native Nick and moves around the island with keyboard or mouse controls. To get help in retrieving the nose, the player has to talk to the idols and ask them what they want in return for their help. These can be gifts or magic spells. Most of the game consists of searching for and collecting these objects. Sometimes a magic spell is needed to retrieve the items. The mutants are not all very friendly and can be dangerous or require magic to overcome. The player also has to watch out for mutant islanders who try to steal items from the player's inventory. When they attack, the player can protect himself by hitting them and they will be stunned for a while.

The game has a time limit. The player has to complete it in 30, 60 or 90 minutes, depending on his choice. If he fails, Mohawk will turn him into a rock.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
