MediEvil (1998): Difference between revisions

During the game, the player must go through several places, from a [[The Graveyard|graveyard]] full of zombies, to a [[The Ghost Ship|flying ghost ship]] full of undead pirates, to a levitating board in an [[The Enchanted Earth|enchanted forest]] surrounded by flying demonettes. There are also several collectible items found in the levels which have to be collected in order to proceed to further areas or levels. There are several books placed upon stands all over areas in the game which may offer advice to Sir Dan, while <span style="font-style: normal; ">some others contain humorous jokes</span> or generally the history of the area. Some of them are placed in hidden places, but they are mostly found along the path that Sir Dan takes. They can be read if struck with a close range weapon.

Dan starts the game with just his detachable arm, which can be used as both a melee weapon and a projectile, but is incredibly weak. Soon, however he obtains a small sword. The majority of weapons Dan encounters are received from the [[Hall of Heroes]] by collecting Chalices in each level, and range from swords, axes and hammers to projectile weapons such as crossbows and spears. There are other weapons that Dan encounters through the course of the game, such as a club that can be used as a torch, but breaks after too much use; a Dragon Potion that lets Dan breathe fire and protects him from flame attacks; and Chicken Drumsticks that can turn enemies into Roast Chicken for health recovery. Dan is also able to find a variety of shields to protect himself, ranging from [[Copper Shield|copper]] to gold in strength.
