The '''Boiler Guards''' were part of [[Zarok]]'s army, so named because they were essentially living kettle boilers. They were renowned for their dutiful (and somewhat sheep-like) devotion to their master.
==Gameplay==
===Strategy===
Boiler Guards possess unmatched skill with ranged weapons, especially blunderbusses and bows. They have an extra-nasty surprise for close-in attackers, spewing flames from their bellies and lighting the would-be assailant ablaze.


==Involvement==
While the use of the [[Broad Sword]] in ''MediEvil'' suffices to vanquish the enemy, in ''MediEvil: Resurrection'', because the Boiler Guards are capable to deal flame damage at close-quarters, it is advised to enter in retain mode (hold R) and circle around the enemy in order to avoid being hit by incoming shots, whist retaliating with a ranged weapon, such as the [[Crossbow]].
===''MediEvil'' (2019 remake)===
====Book of Gallowmere entry====
Zarok's mechanical goon squad, developed deep in the City of Madness (although they were manufactured in China, of course).


These trigger-happy warriors resemble animated boilers, confronting the player in ''[[MediEvil]]'', during [[The Sleeping Village]] and [[The Time Device]] levels, as well as in ''[[MediEvil: Resurrection]]'', in [[Welcome to the Sleeping Village]], [[The Sleeping Village]] and [[Zarok's Lair]].
That coal in their stomach fuels them, whilst also cooking up a mean brisket.
