Tomato Head is a 1996 children's creativity toy in the spirit of Mr. Potato Head: you dress and accessorize a cartoon tomato body by dragging articles of clothing onto it. The Mac release was distributed by Bry-Back Manor and mirrored to the Info-Mac archive as a BinHex 4.0 stuffit package.
What you do
The Macintosh Garden listing summarizes the gameplay simply: "Add articles of clothing to a tomato body!" It is a sandbox rather than a goal-driven game, with point-and-click drag mechanics intended for younger users. The package is categorized as Creative on Macintosh Garden.
System support
Macintosh Garden lists the build as a fat binary (68k and PPC) for System 7.0 through 7.6, with confirmed compatibility on the SheepShaver and Basilisk II emulators. The Info-Mac copy is distributed as a single archive of roughly 826 KB.
Provenance
The Info-Mac submission credits Catzlover@aol.com and the Bry-Back Manor children's site (then hosted at geocities.com/Heartland/6459). The file lives on ftp.funet.fi under info-mac/game/tomato-head.hqx and is also catalogued by Macintosh Garden.
