'''The Lake''' is the eighth level in the Any% category of the original ''[[MediEvil (1998)|MediEvil]]''. The goal of this level is to reach the exit. You can collect an [[Energy Vial]].

Dashing on the platforms is not very easy. If you're often falling into the water, run without dashing.

==Walkthrough==
{{Notebox|'''Shortcut''': Before the level starts, you can hold Top-Right and {{B|C}}. [[Sir Daniel Fortesque|Dan]] will perform a jump when the level starts, on the boat. This will allow you to gain a second as Dan will be on the platform earlier than intended, and in a better position to run.}}
# As you gain control of Dan, run on the platforms until you reach the metal rotating platform.
# Take a Left, and run until you reach land. Keep your shield up, the [[Watchers]] will shoot acid at you.
# Run towards the building to the Top-Right and enter through the door.
# Make a sharp right into the second, smaller room. There will be an Energy Vial. Grab it if you need to heal.
# Exit the building. On your right (Dan's left) you'll have the level exit door.
# Perform [[The Lake gate skip]] to reach the exit and leave.
