An animated clip plays, you press a button (here it's one of the arrow keys or the space bar) and you watch another clip. Progressing through Brain Dead 13 is a chore. The only problem is with the gameplay - there is none. Developers ReadySoft, without the input of Don Bluth this time round, have crafted what I feel to be a better visual design, giving it a bouncy 90s spin reminiscent of that era. The help of a movie animation studio helps. They all have a tendency to look gorgeous with some beautiful animations. I have a love/hate relationship with these types of games. Hilarity ensues, but that doesn't necessarily translate as entertainment. His insane hunchback assistant named Fritz who sports hooks for hands unerringly gives chase. Nero's nefarious ways, as well as dispatching all of the ghouls residing in his spooky mansion. Realising the predicament that our hero is in (or does he, the cartoon caricature makes it hard to tell), Lance speeds off stumbling into a series of events that somehow ends up stopping Dr. And you've just fixed his supercomputer so he can do so. Nero Neurosis who plans to take over the world. Little does he know that his new client is actually the floating disembodied brain of Dr. You also happen to be a bit of a computer wiz working for an on-call for a technology company that operates like a plumber of silicon.
You are Lance, a 90s stoner cliche complete with backwards baseball cap. Brain Dead 13 is exactly like these games, just taking place in a generic horror setting instead of a generic fantasy one (for generic sci-fi, see Space Ace). Back in the 80s he unleashed Dragon's Lair into the arcades, and it was a huge success - for about 5 minutes. His movies may be hit and miss, often showcasing their technical prowess over artistic merit (unless Spielberg happens to be involved). Let's ease into Halloween with something a little tame: an animated arcade adventure from 1995 named Brain Dead 13.ĭon Bluth has a lot to answer for. Pasty skinned weirdos like me need no excuse to encourage the claret at any time of the year, but in the spirit of my favourite month, we're going all spooky on yo' ass. It's October, the month where goth and gore become acceptable to the god-fearing suburbs around the world.
