Mutazione

Mutazione (pronounced: mu-ta-zi-O-neh) means “Mutation” in Italian, which is a perfect pontification for what the game achieves. Developer Die Gute Fabrik deftly defies convention, altering the standard tropes of game narrative at the molecular level. What begins with a girl named Kai arriving in Mutazione to take care of her ailing grandfather quickly spirals into something unexpected, charming and emotional. Small-town gossip fuels the community of oddball personalities, brimming with talk of backstabbing and venomous secrets. Toss in Lynchian hooks like magical musical gardens and intense dreamscapes and, well - you’re starting to understand what makes this game tick. iam8bit is proud to partner with Akupara Games to bring fans this much-awaited definitive edition of this award-winning marvel of narrative design. A mutant soap opera where small-town gossip meets the supernatural... MUTAZIONE is an adventure game where the juicy personal drama is just as important as the high-stakes adventure part of the story. Explore the community as 15-year-old Kai as she travels to the strange and secretive community of Mutazione to care for her ailing grandfather, Nonno. But things aren’t as simple as they seem... Nonno has other plans for Kai secrets and betrayals simmer under the friendly community’s surface and there’s a creepy bird-like figure who keeps on appearing in Kai’s dreams. They can survive an apocalyptic meteor strike, but can they survive their small-town drama?
