Dead of the Brain does not have a fishing minigame :((

BTW, the port adds a special feature that highlights hotspots; a good move since adventure games of this era are reliant on pixel-hunting.

Doc's not too worried because he thinks zombification is temporary, but it spreads faster than expected, and by the time we reach the police station, they've been wiped out. So, first job, search the station for supplies.

Long story short, doc invented a zombie virus, which quickly spreads from the cat to a pig... err, cop. They flee through a graveyard, where doc drops the virus and causes Stephen King to rise from the grave, along with presumably the entire graveyard.

@fakku.net goes all-in on the retro presentation, with a cheeky bootup screen and setting menus in a menu bar. Starting a game takes us right into the action, our protagonist Cole gets a call from a nutty professor he knows, pays a visit, and AHH! ZOMBIE CAT!

I'll do a proper post tomorrow at some stage about the #DeadOfTheBrain release on Steam but seriously this should be considered one of the gold standards of remastering an old game- right up there with *Grim Fandango Remastered*. Anyways, I have a walkthrough uploaded to GameFAQs pending approval.

The game sometimes requires you to examine everything multiple times to find items or information, so you get into the habit of exhausting all options.

...which is to say, it is NOT my fault I have to keep examining Sally's tits.

Credits rolled on Dead of the Brain! If that sounds sudden, it kind of is. The game's whole second act seems to be missing, and after a certain point we rush to a finale. I wrote up a review for Steam (positive but with reservations), so check it out!

A lead at the police station takes us to a hotel, where a friendly policeman press-gangs us into a ragtag band of cannon fodd... er, I mean "survivors". With six of them plus three of us, that makes nine. Who will survive to the end? Place your bets! 😉

First zombie attack demonstrates the game's combat system. Basically, you have to pick the right actions before the timer on the lower-left ticks down to zero. In this case, look him in the eyes 3 times, then run away, find a gun, and blow his head off.

Bad news: Doc bites the dust after a zombie gets the drop on us. Good news: we're saved from the same fate by a new ally. Worse news: new guy's probably evil. His story is inconsistent with the facts, he doesn't join our group, and he's named freakin' Kane.

Oh, BTW, this game has a patch on FAKKU.com for an uncut version, and ah... not for the gore. 😉

(That said, I turned Cathy down because A) she's going through some trauma right now, and B) cheating on your SO in a 90's horror game seems like bad karma.)

That English Dead of the Brain release was a delightful thing of delightful dithered pixels with a delightful fake boot loader. I am delighted <3 #PC98

"Marine Philt" is basically the other "Dead of the Brain" game! Except instead of zombies, this one rips off the Alien series. So here's more horror-themed graphic adventure on the PC-98!
