‣ Final notes: Mutazione is one of those games that many players will probably never play. Reason for this is that this game is very small and kind of hidden. Only mainstream attention can make this game known to more players. However, with all that said I think that this game is a hidden gem in the Indie department. At first, I was skeptical and did not really know what I was getting myself into. But every time I stopped playing, I felt the urge to continue the story. I kept thinking about Mutazione and how it will end. Personally, the story in this game is rather slow paced but that is a good thing. The slow pace of the story allows you to meet and get to know all the characters and the environment around you. I should also mention that Mutazione heavily focuses on the narrative and the story, so gameplay comes second and is rather simple, reminds me of Night in the Woods, so if that is your style of a game that you will most likely enjoy Mutazione. But with all that said I still think this game is great even if all you do is point and click, walk around the same town five or so days in a row, talk to the villagers and water some plants. Overall, I know that this is something that not everyone is going to enjoy, but if you really put in some time into this games rather slow start, you will love the characters and the story it is trying to tell.
