An open-source browser engine lets you play the 2002 resort tycoon using files from your own copy of the game, without installing it.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-04 issue.
For
Owners of Beach Life discs or installed copies
Worth noticing
The importer supports several named European, French/German, UK/US, and later English CD editions; unknown copies are refused.

Field notes

The importer accepts a disc image, mounted drive, or installation folder, then stores converted game data in the browser for later sessions. Saves can be downloaded, and the page says clearing browser data deletes local saves. Phone and tablet controls are available experimentally; the site notes that the game uses about 1 GB of browser storage and recommends a desktop or laptop.
