Brain Dead 13 (ブレインデッド１３) is a full motion video game released, among other consoles, for the Sega Saturn.

A Sega Mega-CD version was extensively advertised in North America (and even appears on the disc of the Mega-CD version of Space Ace), but was cancelled for unknown reasons (presumably due to the release of the Sega Saturn).

Story

After Lance got a mysterious "fix it" call from a dark castle, he goes to reactivate Dr. Nero Neusosis' computers. Upon than, the computer technician learn the antagonist plan is to dominate the world. Now, Lance must stop Dr. Nero Neusosis' evil plan.

Gameplay

Like Dragon's Lair and Space Ace before it, Brain Dead 13 relies heavily on quick time events, though this time also features crossroads allowing the player to determine his or her own path. As such it is a slightly less linear game than its predecessors.

History

Critical reception

Citrics complained that the game itself is simply mindless trial-and-error in comparasion of other FMV games. Both this version and the 3DO one were critiized for the poor quality of the FMV.
