MediEvil is an action and adventure game set in 1286, where Sir Daniel Fortesque and his soldiers fought against the evil sorcerer Zarok. Zarok was defeated, but it seems he wasn't, as he returns a hundred years later to rob people of their souls. He inadvertently revives Sir Daniel, making him a skeletal corpse who must correct his past mistakes and defeat Zarok.
MediEvil is an action game where the player controls Sir Daniel Fortesque as he explores 3D environments and fights many enemies. The protagonist starts with a detachable arm and can acquire swords, bows, and other melee weapons. Money can be collected to buy items and equipment from gargoyle merchants. Finding rune stones allows access to new areas.
Each level contains a chalice that can be filled with the souls of defeated enemies. Sir Daniel must vanquish a sufficient amount of foes before taking a chalice, which enables access to the Hall of Heroes where he can receive new weapons. Collecting all the chalices unlocks a special ending.
MediEvil is available on PlayStation and was released in 1998. The gameplay combines exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving elements, making it an engaging experience for players.
