A [[Sierra]] [[Adventure Game]] from 1991 that ended up ported to Sega CD a year later. It tells the story of Willy, a typical '90s kid who is all set for the summer, particularly a [[Bland-Name Product|Nintari]] game tournament. However, a last-minute bad grade gets Willy's gaming privileges revoked, keeping him from practicing. This little setback is minor compared what is to come as Willy tries his best to get to the competition.
 
''Willy Beamish'' is very under-the-radar game if there ever was one, with very adult humor. If you should happen upon the game, count yourself lucky and give it a try.

Line 66:
* [[Unwinnable By Mistake]]: During the sequence where you are trying to rescue your frog, the puzzle with Chef Childish is based on your system speed, so if your computer is too fast, you won't be able to complete the puzzle. MoSlo or [[DOSBox]] to the rescue here.
* [[Valley Girl]]: Tiffany Beamish.
* [[What Do You Mean, It's Not Forfor Kids?]]: Looking at the cover, you assume it's a harmless kid's game. Heh, won't you be in for a surprise. If you read the fine print, note that it says, "What if you were nine '''again, knowing what you know now?'''"
* [[White Collar Worker]]: Gordon Beamish.
* [[Xanatos Roulette]] / [[Evil Plan]]: Leona Humpford and Louis Stoole's plot to make the plumbers go on strike, interrupting Tootsweet's processing of sludge and bring Frumpton to their mercy while pinning the blame on their choice of [[Unwitting Pawn]], a newly hired PR spokesman for Tootsweet... that being Gordon Beamish.
