Head Over Heels is an isometric arcade adventure developed by Ocean Software and released in 1987 for a wide range of home platforms, including the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, Atari 8-bit, Atari ST, Amiga, and MSX. The game features two separate protagonists, Mr Head and Mr Heels, each with distinct abilities. Players can operate them independently or combine them into a single unit, a choice that expands certain capabilities while limiting others, adding a layer of strategic decision-making throughout. Presented in a three-dimensional isometric perspective, the game works through a series of puzzle-oriented environments that require navigating switches, platforms, and climbable structures. Crowns must be collected as progress is made, and various objects scattered across the levels can be picked up and used to overcome obstacles. The interplay between the two characters' complementary skill sets forms the core of the puzzle design.
