Gameplay

MediEvil

Rats are encountered in the Pumpkin Serpent and the Sleeping Village. Smashing them will reward Sir Dan with 1 or 2G.

MediEvil 2

Rats are very much the same 500 years later, but will attack Dan when he assumes Dan-hand form.

MediEvil: Resurrection

Smashing rats bears no rewards. They are central to the Lazy Farm mini game Vermin Control.

Behind the scenes

Development

According to Chris Sorrell, the rats in MediEvil were only made squishable two months prior to the game's release, after its lead programmer (who loved rats) left due to creative differences.

Rats were also set to appear in The Graveyard level in an older incarnation of MediEvil.
