A Bonehead's Guide to Gallowmere is a series of four promotional videos published weekly before the release of the MediEvil remake. Each video focuses on a different gameplay mechanic. All videos are narrated by Lani Minella.

Volume 1 - Using One's Shield

This volume was released on October 3, 2019.

Transcript

Any hero knows that it can be dangerous to just charge straight into battle without the proper protection. Good thing you have a variety of shields at your disposal.

What's that? No shield? Maybe you can find one from a chest. Nope, not that. Oh, that's definitely not right. What even is that? There we are.

By equipping your shield, not only can you move around with a newfound sense of security, but every attacking enemy and hazardous trap won't come close to harming you. What a difference!

But be careful, no shield lasts forever. And they can't protect you from gravity. But that's okay. No one gets it on the first try. But you already knew that, didn't you?

Volume 2 - Changing One's Perspective

This volume was released on October 10, 2019.

Transcript

Any sweeping adventure is bound to contain a variety of interesting sights to take in. Unfortunately for you, you've only got one eye.

Can't find the key to a door? Tired of looking at the top of your enemy's heads? Feel like your view is stuck in the past? Perhaps it's time to shift your perspective with what we call the "Dan Cam." I wonder what weirdo that's named after.

Ah, look how pleasant everything seems from this angle. You can see enemies coming from a mile away. There's that key. Everything seems so different from this perspective. These places, those enemies, even your allies.

Okay. Maybe it's a good thing you only have one eye. However you look at it, you'll probably need all the help you can get. Good luck, hero!

Volume 3 - Maximizing One's Offense

This volume was released on October 17, 2019.

Transcript

Any self-respecting knight knows that every weapon requires the utmost skill to properly dispatch one's foes. But for those troubling instances, perhaps you should try an alternate approach. Did you know that there's more than one way to use each weapon?

That's right. Some of them are useful for crowd control. Some have a lot more impact. And some are, well, not that different I suppose.

Of course, there are weapon that are better suited to certain situations. And others that, well, I'm not quite sure why you'd do THAT actually.

Just make sure to hang on to your weapon. You never know what might happen to it... Well, after him! Those are expensive, you know.

Volume 4 - Filling One's Chalice

The final volume was released on October 24, 2019, just one day before the release of the remake.

Transcript

Any good legend has its share of challenges. And the Chalice of Souls is no different. What's the Chalice of Souls you ask? Why, only one of the most powerful relics in all of Gallowmere.

Now, not so fast. You didn't think it would be that easy, did you? Every bad soul you vanquish will help you fill the Chalice, and once full, will earn you a hero's reward.

But be careful, not all foes you encounter are bad. And any mistakes can really cost you.

So go out there, and fill that Chalice, and maybe one day they'll make a statue of you, too. Oh, who am I kidding?
