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.

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.
