Dead Head Fred is a 2007 action-adventure platformer developed by Vicious Cycle Software for the PlayStation Portable and PlayStation Vita. Players control Fred Neuman, a private detective who is murdered and subsequently resurrected through a bizarre scientific experiment — left without his memory or his original head. The central mechanic revolves around collecting, upgrading, and swapping different heads mid-combat, each offering distinct strategic advantages against a variety of enemies including mutants, gangsters, and mob bosses. This head-switching system forms the backbone of both exploration and combat throughout the game. The story follows Fred's pursuit of revenge and redemption as he pieces together the circumstances of his death, framing its pulpy premise within a structured narrative that blends dark humor with action gameplay.
