Mr. Bean: Around the World is a smartphone video game by Good Catch Games based on the Mr. Bean franchise released in 2015.

Mr. Bean finds a cake and steals a slice from it. Unbeknownst to him, Mrs. Wicket baked it. She catches him in the act and becomes furious, so now it's up to Mr. Bean to run away from her in six countries around the world.

Your objective is to run away from Mrs. Wicket. If she catches up to Mr. Bean, it's game over. There are many obstacles which he has to jump over.

The game was removed from stores sometime in 2020, but footage of it still exists and it's still playable for people who downloaded it previously. There's also the official website.


This game provides examples of:

  • And Your Reward Is Clothes: Hats can be earned by opening Lucky Boxes. Some of them don't change anything, but several of them give additional effects when worn.
  • Cash Gate: You have to pay Gold Beans to unlock later levels.
  • Cats Are Mean: If Mr. Bean is close enough to get caught by Mrs. Wicket but still has some distance away from her (like being slightly above her), she send her cat on him who bites his ear.
  • Circling Birdies: Most of the time, when Mrs. Wicket catches Mr. Bean, she hits him on the head with a ruler causing him to see stars.
  • Endless Game: There's an endless mode which only ends when Mrs. Wicket catches our protagonist.
  • Flying Carpet: There are carpets in India which float up and down or are stationary and act as platforms.
  • Implacable Man: Mrs. Wicket never stops trying to catch our hero. She even runs through all the obstacles he has to avoid.
  • Jump Physics: Tap to jump, tap longer for a higher jump, tap again in mid-air to glide.
  • Loot Boxes: Lucky Boxes can be bought for 500 Gold Beans. They contain new hats or a Gold Bean reward.
  • Power-Up Magnet: Top Hat attracts Gold Beans like a magnet.
  • Solid Clouds: Certain platforms in England are clouds which Mr. Bean can walk on or jump off without them disappearing.
