Metal Mutant is a side-scrolling action-adventure game developed and published for MS-DOS, Amiga and Atari ST by Silmarils and released in 1991. It is similar to Game Arts' Thexder in that it allows you to transform at any time into three different robot forms (Cyborg, Dino and Tank).

The cover features an illustration by John Bolton.[1]

Character

Right from the start the player has a possibility to instantly transform into 3 mechanical robots, each possessing unique abilities:

Upgrades are performed either by finding and picking them up as modules, or programming via terminals.

The only feature that is common to all robots is the Turbomutant, in the last screens of the game.

Plot

You control Metal Mutant, the ultimate battle machine, which was sent to the heavily protected high-tech planet Kronox to find and destroy the tyrant AROD 7. On the way to this goal, you need to solve puzzles and combat hostile lifeforms and enemy robots.
