Mutagen is a customisable worker placement game set in a 1920s biopunk universe. Each player has four workers that each react differently to the areas they are placed in. Each time a player places a worker, they will activate that location's action, plus an additional action determined by the worker's type. Players can unlock the full potential of biological upgrades, by infusing their workers with biological upgrades that will grant them a decisive edge over their opponents.
