+'''Dan's Crypt''' is the introductory field level in both ''[[MediEvil (1998)|MediEvil]]'' and its [[MediEvil (2019)|2019 remake]].
 Here, the player will be introduced to [[Sir Daniel Fortesque]] and will be given an opportunity to familiarise themselves with the land of [[Gallowmere]] and moving the newly-revived knight around the field.
 ==General walkthrough==
-As Dan rises from his dais, he will be addressed by the snarky [[gargoyle]]s on either side of the hall. They don't think he will succeed in his new mission, but they certainly welcome him to try. Grab the [[Throwing Daggers]] and [[Small Sword]] just ahead. The Daggers will always respawn on replay, so keep this in mind.
+As Dan (with his little friend [[Morten the Earthworm]] in tow) rises from his dais, he will be addressed by the snarky [[gargoyle]]s on either side of the hall.

The Daggers will always respawn on replay, so keep this in mind. Also grab the [[Life Bottle]] sitting on some dirt from a cave-in, which increases Dan's energy reserves by 300 units and therefore counts as one extra life.
-Note the off-colour wall near the exit—Dan cannot do anything with it quite yet, but he will soon be able to.

-Head left at the intersection to reach a room with an aqueduct/lava flow. Jump the gap to move further in to  some [[Gold Coins]] and a chest with a [[Copper Shield]]. Grab the [[Star Rune]] in the vicinity as well.

 ===Return run===
-Equip Dan with a [[Club]] or the [[War Hammer]] to smash the off-colour wall. The goodies in here may include some gold, [[Energy Vial]]s, or a [[Life Bottle]], which increases Dan's energy reserves by 300 units and therefore counts as one extra life . Exit the same way as before, and Dan will complete the level with a coveted green check mark.
+After obtaining a [[Club]] from [[Cemetery Hill]], Dan can return to smash the off-colour wall. The wall can also be smashed using the [[Hammer]] or the [[Daring Dash]] ability, but the Club is the earliest smashing method available. Inside await some chests of gold as well as a brand new Life Bottle. Exit the same way as before, and Dan will complete the level with a coveted green checkmark.
