---------------------Ib. BASIC STORY:--------------------
You are Sir Daniel Fortesque, the leader of the army which defeated
the evil warlock,

Zarok. Although you went down in history as the slayer, the truth
was that you were

the first to die by an arrow in the first attack.

The body of Zarok was never found and he returns now. Bringing
the dead back to life

to serve in his unholy army, he incidentally awakens you. You
now have a chance to

earn yourself a place in the Hall of Heroes.

The adventure begins.

--------------------II. BASIC GAMEPLAY:------------------
My only complaint about this game is the camera angle.

There is no option for an active camera. You get used to it though.

A. BUTTONS: These settings can be changed.
Square - charge attack or to throw certain weapons.

X - regular attack.

Triangle - shield, dash when already running.

O (Circle) - Jump.

Left Button - n/a

Right Button - n/a

Left2 Button - turn camera to right.

Right2 Button - turn camera to left.

B. MOVES (not in one button):
Dash - press forward (up) twice quickly.

Long Jump - dash and jump

C. RULES/TIPS:
You can't swim so avoid deep water.

Fire WILL hurt you even though you are just a pile of bones (don't
ask me).

If you see an off coloured wall or a barrel try breaking it with you
hammer.

Read the books! They usually give away all of the secrets and help
you to know

what you should be trying to accomplish.

---------------III. QUICK REFERENCE SECTION--------------------
A. RUNES: Used to open doors, gates, etc.

Place them in the hand of corresponding colour.
Green is the earth rune

Blue is the moon rune

White is the time rune

Yellow is the star rune

Red is the chaos rune

B. CHALICES: (see Walkthrough for more detail).

There are twenty chalices in all. If you get them all
you

will see the good ending after you defeat Zarok.
Dan's Crypt: none

The Hall of Heroes: none

-------------------IV. WALKTHROUGH---------------------
A. DAN'S CRYPT:
After you have a club or the war hammer, return here and break the off-coloured

wall that you may have noticed earlier. Inside is some treasure.

Runes: Yellow (Star)

Life Bottle: 1
B. THE HALL OF HEROES:
Ok, I'm writing this because some of my friends had a hard time getting
out of

here for some reason. All you have to do is stand on the golden
circle where you

came in and you will be given the option to leave. Very simple.

Each time that you come here you will gain a new item or some treasure.

C. THE GRAVEYARD:
This place is pretty simple, to get the life bottle, hit the angel statue
the gate in

which ever direction she is facing will open. Do the same for
the chalice.

To get the treasure inside the fence by the big door get onto the ledge
behind the

crypts and inch your way along. Towards the end, just before
the bridge you will find

the copper shield.

D. CEMETERY HILL:
First of all, you don't really want to open those boxes with the skull
and crossbones.

Its a bomb.

Walk past the lava and when up on the path to the left, jump down to
the area behind

the three boulders blocking the archway. You will get the club
here and then can

proceed into the witches cave. Inside, break the bookcase with your
club, light the

club on fire and go to the room with the cages. Light the altar
in the center by

pounding it with your club.

This will open the doors and you can collect your chalice, an energy
vial, the witch

talisman, and some treasure.

Return to the outside and brave the hill. You can duck into the
stairs cut along the way

but there is some treasure along the main path if you care to collect
it. You can break

the boulders with your club or shield, this will damage your shield
but you periodically

find more shields on the way up. The exit is right there at the
top.

As you are working your way up the hill note that you can smash the
small boulders

lying around to receive something like three energy vials. Also
note that the

red boulders cannot be blocked by a shield, they will push you.

E. HILLTOP MAUSOLEUM:
Watch out for the little guys with no torches, they will steal your
weapons which you can

reclaim if you kill the little guys or will lose if the guy gets away.

You start out in the chapel and need to break the grave covers with
your club. Fall

down inside the one that shines and your on your way. Break the
glass with your club and

there are a series of tunnels. To your left is a tunnel with
the green (earth) rune and an

energy vial. The floors here will colapse when you collect the
items so run back quickly.

Skip the right tunnel for now and push on ahead at the end you will
use the green rune.

In this room is a door which you need the red (chaos) rune for and
a staircase. Proceed up

the staircase. WATCH OUT FOR THAT LITTLE GUY! and there is a
life refill station here.

Proceed through the door to get the blue rune and the red rune through
the next door.

This is the organ room and there are two energy vials here. Leave
for now, and exit the

stainglass window room through the gate which leads back into the chapel.

Go back down into the tunnels and take the right tunnel this time.
Use your blue rune and

collect the energy vial and then the sheet music.

Go north again and find the organ player again. Give the music
sheet to the organ player

and this will open a secret door giving you the chalice and some treasure.
Go back to

the room where you needed the red rune below and use it. Go down
these steps and

push the burning altar under the frozen heart. You can then proceed
back upstairs to

defeat the stained glass demon.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

GLASS DEMON, use your crossbow and when he raises himself up and his
heart comes

out of his chest, blast away. Don't linger too long or he will
cover you in glass.

In general try to stay on the opposite side of the room from him so
that you can have a

clear shot at him and can avoid the shards that he tosses at you.

Should you defeat him you will gain the skull key. This will
enable you to open the

big door in the graveyard.

F. RETURN TO THE GRAVEYARD:
Same thing as the first time almost, just backwards. First thing
is the secret area, wait

for a coffin to float under the bridge and then stand in the middle
of the bridge.

If you time it correctly you will be able to ride the coffin to the
secret area.

Along the way here in the part of the level you've already been through
you will find the

silver shield. For what its worth to say, you can smash the disembodied
hands with

your hammer and receive a coin.

When you see it come up on your left jump up to receive some treasure
and an energy vial.

To get to the life refill station, jump onto the ledge above the big
door and slowly

inch your way along behind the crypts. Now you can open the big
door using the skull key.

After you do so, go through to the top of the hill and get the yellow
(star) rune

to open the gate. The chalice is located inside. Watch out for
large zombies dropping

from the ceiling.

Inside you will go through some caves which will lead you to cliffs
outside. On

these cliffs (there are three) there are large stone blocks which you
will need to

push into the stream to fill the break in the bridge.

Return to the bridge and face the Graveyard Guardians.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

GRAVEYARD GUARDIANS, they are shadow dogs which run around and occasionally

materialize. When they do, pound 'em with your hammer.
Charging it up and waiting

for them works well.

When you're done you will be able to dash using the triangle button.

>From here you can either go to the Enchanted Earth for the Ant's Nest
or to

Scarecrow Fields.

G. The Enchanted Earth/ANT'S NEST:
Ok, this place just plain sucks. Well, the first thing to do here
is summon the

witch at the cauldron using the talisman. If you accept her mission
she will shrink

you and send you to retrieve 7 pieces of amber from the ants nest.

When you go there you need to save the little faerie guys as well as
collect the pieces

of amber. The little faerie guy has a really cool voice.

The first thing that you find is a portal which is closed by a white
filmy light. Go

back towards the entrance and find a circular weblike covering of a
cave entrance,

break it with your hammer. You will save the first faerie and
he will open the

portal for you.

Once inside the misery really begins. All I can say is that you'll
figure it out but it

takes a lot of time. You should kill all of the larvae as they
will give you money

or amber.

The little fairies aren't too terribly hard to find. There are
a couple toward the end

of the level which are very close to each other.

At the end of the level you will face the queen ant (spider?)
---BOSS STRATEGY---

QUEEN ANT, she's not too difficult but it's a ***** doing it all again
when you die.

Anyway, just avoid her shots, kill the soldier ants, and shoot her
stomach when

she rears up to call boulders down on you. REMEMBER TO TAKE A FULL
CROSSBOW!!!!!!

It takes forever if you have to use the throwing daggers. According
to "Rusty Marquardt"

<dragonblade18@hotmail.com>, you can use the hammer if you must.
If you have questions

about that ask him not me. Also, "Michelle Jackson" <majjc@epix.net>
told me that

there is a nook on the left wall which you can hide in to give more
protection from the

ants, to avoid the green goop the queen spews and from which you can
still shoot the

queen. Again, any questions should be directed to her on this
subject.
Upon your completion of these missions you will receive the chicken
drumstick from the

witch and will be transported to the Hall of Heroes by the faerie guy.
At first that's all that you can really do here.

There is no chalice for the Ant's Nest.

H. SCARECROW FIELDS:
A pretty straightforward level. Just remember not to stand in
the corn for long.

You can kill the scarecrows with your broadsword, especially if it
has been enchanted.

You will need to kill them.

If you want to move a cart hit it with your hammer from the side.
When you get to the

green rune gate you will have to fight a metal trog armour. To
kill it shoot the head with

your crossbow, duck between its legs when it gets too close and then
shoot the driver.

You will get the blue rune for defeating him. Take it back to
the house where you came in.

Inside you will find a club and the green rune. Take it back
to the spot where you fought

the metal trog armour. Enter the next pen and fight again to
win the red rune. This one

breathes fire.

When you find the barn, just head past it and towards the windmill.
Go through and into

the mill, hide in the holes for safety. Into the razors, to a
life refill station,

through the grain that's like quicksand, through another razor, and
into the circle

with the spinning floor. Run all the way until you are at the
northernmost point of

the circle and you will find the harvester part.

Take it all the way back to the barn. Hit the cart and go through
the hole in the wall.

Bush the bail against the other box and jump up to the switch.
Hit it and the harvester

will be lowered. To activate it, place the harvester part in
the harvester.

It will break through the wall and will clear a path through the corn
to the chalice, a

life bottle and some cash, of course.

Then run through all of the machinery again to get out.

I. PUMPKIN GORGE:
Here's one that'll bug ya. There is a tunnel on your right, inside
you will find the

blue rune. Exit and proceed forward and enter what looks to be a chicken
coop. Pumpkins

are bouncing down the plank. There is some treasure inside, an
energy vial and a door

to exit on the side. Go back to the hut with the blue rune lock
and open it. Inside

you need to run on the floor to raise it and you will receive an energy
vial and the

red rune. Take the rune and open the door. To get the green
rune, cross the water with

the mushrooms which lift you up. When you get to the last mushroom
there is a narrow

grey stone path to your right. Jump into this path and you will
be taken to the green

rune. The door that would not open will open now. Use the
green rune to go up the ramp

of the large pillar in the middle of the stage. At the top you
will get the yellow rune

and find the sliver shield. You will see a small house with a
rounded wall, its really

a boulder and you can smash it with your hammer. Enter the house
and you will come out

the door at the bottom where you started. Go around to the left
and enter the first door.

Cross the mushrooms and open the yellow gate.

Here you will have to fight a bunch of tendrils coming out of the ground
to claim the

time rune. To lower the main stalk kill the tendrils. Placing
the white (time) rune in

the hand will open both doors. To the right you will find two
energy vials and alot of

tendrils. You will come to a T in the road. To the right
is the exit and to the left

you wrap back around to the time rune arena. Proceed to the entrance
of the level and find

the tunnel you saw when you started. When you find the gargoyle
merchant, break the wall

to the right of him. It's a long tunnel and you will find the
chalice and a life refill.

Now head back to the exit.

J. PUMPKIN SERPENT:
Use your talisman to summon a witch at the cauldron and she will tell
you to kill

the big pumpkin. Chop all of the pods and then waste the big
pumpkin. Its really

easy. Then go back to the witch and she will give you a dragon
gem. To find the

chalice jump into the well near the entrance of the level. You
will find a box of

treasure and two energy vials as well.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

BIG PUMPKIN, the spears do an excellent job. If you use the sword
you may be too close to

his tendrils.

K. SLEEPING VILLAGE:
*Do not kill any of the possessed villagers!*

To get the red rune from atop the fountain statue, find the stairs
leading to the

canal and hit the switch to turn off the water. Use the rune
right there to open the

library.

Go inside and break the bookcase to get the mold. If you have
found the blue rune

in one of the other houses take it to the house with the room having
the orange

button, barrels, and a fenced off area. Use the rune, push a
barrel onto the button

and go downstairs.

Smash the barrels and go into the room on the right. Proceed
up the stairs in this

room and get the green rune. Take is back downstairs and use
the green rune to

open the fence gate.

Hit the switch and return upstairs to get the major's bust (metal statue
head).

After you have done this Zarok's guards will appear outside and you
must proceed

to annihilate them.

Go back outside and find the blacksmith's house. Place the mold
in the fire and

then the statue head. Jump up and down on the bellows for a while
and you will

have made the crucifix.

Take the crucifix to the church right across the street and place it
on the crucifix

shaped marking on the wall behind the large altar. This will open a
secret cubby

hole in the wall where you will get the safe key.

The gate in the lake area will then open and hence you should proceed.
This will

take you to the yard of the large house. Kill the guards here
and climb on top of the

shed roofs to get to the house's chimney. Hop inside and hit
the switch, this will

open the gate for the exit. Before leaving the house use the
safe key on the purple

safe to get the shadow artifact.

Leave, find the other gate, and kill a few more guards. Go back
to the large

house and walk through the hole in the stone fence wall to get the
chalice and a

life refill vial. Then you can leave.

The exit is though the stone gate and across the wide bridge.

L. THE ENCHANTED EARTH:
When you come back, go up the tree lifts to the giant bird's nest and
collect the

green rune take it to the corresponding gate and cross the stream.
The rune is inside one

of the eggs so you will have to push it over the edge to get the rune
out. (someone

couldn't figure this out so that's why I'm bothering to mention it)

Use the artifact to open the shadow gate. Upon entering you are
presented with a

puzzle.

There are four buttons on the floor and a carving on the wall which
helps to solve the

puzzle if you know how to read it. On this carving you see depicted:
fire at the top,

earth to the left, water to the right, and air at the bottom.
If you read the picture

like a book, left to right and then down to the next line, etc., you
will have the

correct combination. The order that I had previously noted is
correct but this explains

why. The order is: fire, earth, water and then air. This
releases the spirits and

opens the cages.

It is here that you get the shadow talisman (mask) and later you will
come back to

collect the chalice. Exit and watch out for those nasty demons!
Kill three of them

and the gate will open back into the level. All of the cages
are now open. Be sure

to enchant your sword.

You can now use the shadow talisman to turn off the red lasers preventing
you

from entering the area behind the pool.

Upon entering you will receive the yellow (star) talisman and will
face two flying

demons.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

WINGED DEMONS, they are nasty and will tilt the floor on which you
stand. The good old

crossbow does the most effective job. The flaming crossbow ain't
bad either.
After you beat them the platform raises, be sure to refill your life
at the top. Cross

the bridges and fall into the hole. You will land back in the
level in the seemingly

useless hollow tree from before.

Kill the remaining demons and then return to the shadow dungeon to
collect the

chalice.

The broadsword works quite effectively against the demons. Use
the yellow rune

to exit.

M. ASYLUM GROUNDS:
1. First riddle - "At night they come without being fetched, by day
the are lost

without being stolen."

smash all of the star shaped trees. The first is near the entrance,

the second is directly ahead of that against the gate. The third
is near the bell,

hang a left in the maze and then zigzag to the graves and bell.
The fourth is

across from that in the little area with the red grass shaped like
a star and the bush

that throws fireballs at you. Now return to the entrance of the maze
and hang a right.

2. Second riddle - "I live for laughter, I live for the crowd, without
it I am nothing."

turn all of the metal faces toward the clown bush. To do so turn

them all except the middle one until they are one turn away from facing
the clown.

Stand so that you can hit two at once and set them up and then the
middle one.

Viola!

I recommend using your small sword to turn the faces as you can hit
them faster.

To find this area, go into the maze, left, and around the corner to
where the two

grey brick walls are. The left one will be gone.

According to an email from Trevor, each face has a different length
of time for which

it will remain facing the clown. If you figure these times out
you can hit them in

order from the longest time to the shortest to complete the puzzle.
He didn't tell me

what order that is but it's an option to explore if you so choose.

I recieved another email recently which suggested the order of the
faces to be 1,2,4,5,3

from left to right
3. Third riddle - "Face like a tree, skin like the sea, a great beast
I be, yet vermin

frighten me."

this one takes some figuring. Find the octopus bush near the
red

fish shaped grass. Go back to the two grey stone walls that you
saw in the maze,

the second one will have opened and that is where you go. Anyway,
kill the

octopus plant and get the rune.

Return to the entrance, use the rune, and get the mouse to follow you.
Walk

towards the elephant bush after you have killed all of the crazy Women.
Be sure

to avoid the grey cats (I know they look like rats).
4. Fourth riddle - "I tolerate the moon and stars, I can't abide the
sun, Banish me with

torch light and you'll see me turn and run."

enter the new part of the maze and find the grate, it will be open

so drop inside. You land in a room with a moon carved in the
floor. Go outside

and push all of the lamps next to the angel windows on the walls of
the stone

room. Enter the room again and viola!
5. Final Puzzle - You now have to find your way out. Go back to
the new area of

the maze and find the chess board. Hit each piece to move it
to its respective colored

floor panel.

Each hit moves the piece one block in whichever direction. You
can move them

diagonally. Just wait till they get near where you want them
to go. The little

green bastard is the worst one. It seems that only likes to move
diagonally as many

people have pointed out to me. Use your hammer or whatever suits
you best.

I have another theory about the green bishop but that'll have to wait
until I have some

really free time. Maybe in the next version.
The chalice for this level is out in the open and cannot be missed.
Its right next

to the elephant bush.

N. INSIDE THE ASYLUM:
There are four rooms of evil dead and crazies here that you must defeat.
My best

strategy was to use the broadsword and square-button-move constantly
and just walk around

to avoid the crazies from getting to close to you. If you have
a turbo button this

helps immensely. In the third room which is circular in shape,
just do as I said

before and walk around so that the crazies are following you and you'll
have no

trouble.

In the fifth room is the mayor, some cash and the second dragon gem.
oh yeah, and

the chalice too. :)

O. ANCIENT POOLS OF THE DEAD:
The big fat knights can only be killed by being pushed into the muck.

You must bring the ferryman eight lost souls. To do so you must
collect the eight

golden helmets floating about. Unfortunately, whenever you collect
a helmet the

bridges nearby will collapse.

There are six helmets on the islets and two after you open the gate.

You have to be REALLLLLLLY careful when jumping in this level.

Collect the red rune out on the islets, the chalice is here as well.
You will use the

red rune at a gate to the left of the gargoyle merchant, way to the
right in a very general

sense.

There is a life bottle to be gained as well as a box of treasure and
two energy vials

on the right after you come through the gate.

Be very careful as you approach the carts as the camera angle will
suddenly

change and it is easy to run off into the muck by accident.

Pass the carts and go down the slope to collect the last helmet.
The carts will roll

after you and then lots of soldiers will appear. Have fun (sarcasm).

After you leave this area you must kill a number of small flying knights.
The

Flaming Longbow works very effectively against them. Collect
the chalice and return

to the ferryman. Give him the helmets and you're off.

P. THE LAKE:
Collect the red and green runes, watch out for the eyes and kill them
when you

can. Return to the catwalks and find the sharp corner.
It is a purple metal piece,

there is a pole sticking up right in the middle of it. Hit it
'cause its really a switch

which will move the metal piece so that you can get onto the other
catwalks. Hit

it twice because the first direction will take you to a dead end.
You will take your

runes and place them in crystal machines around the whirlpool which
will stop the

whirlpool. There are three machines.

After you have stopped the whirlpool you can jump down inside and collect
some

treasure. The chalice is down here.

My suggestion for killing the gatorguys is to crouch behind your shield
and throw

the axe. You can also throw the chicken drumstick at them to
turn them into roast

chicken which you can use to refill your life bottles.

Once you get outside again you will find the yellow rune, and the switch
that opens the

gate and lots of eyes.

Return to the first island, enter the house and use the yellow rune
to exit when you

get back outside.

Q. CRYSTAL CAVES:
This level is pretty standard really.

The first thing that you see is the chalice so return for it when you
have filled it.

Remember to go behind the waterfall. You will have to take the
two dragon gems

that you already collected and place them in eyes of the dragon relief,
not the

holes in the wall.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

DRAGON, ok, he sticks his head out of the holes and you have to pound
on the ground

to knock rocks down from the ceiling. And my god, he sounds just
like Sean Connery

in dragon heart. Excuse me while I hurl!

Anyway, when you kill him you will get the dragon amour. Return
to the exit.

R. THE GALLOWS GAUNTLET:

First off, you need to use the dragon amour to get through the fire
gate.

When you pass through the fire gate there are four buttons on the floor
which will

open all of the cages except the chalice cage. The fifth button
is in the main hall

in one of the cages that you just opened. Kill enough of the remaining
baddies,

collect the chalice and then use the yellow rune to exit the level.
Very simple.

S. THE HAUNTED RUINS:
First thing to do is get the chickens out of the fenced area and over
to the pile of

grain near the drawbridge. Just walk behind them 'till they get
there but don't

scare them off.

Anyway, when they eat it all the drawbridge will be lowered.
Upon getting up

onto the wall, collect the red rune to the left.

Your second task here is to free the farmers. To do so you must
kill the demons

before they sacrifice the three farmers. Lightning does an excellent
job of taking

out the demons. If you find that one of the demons always gets
away, fall as you

are using the lightning and quickly switch to your magic longbow and
aim at him.

You must put out the fires BEFORE freeing the farmers. Use the
hammer a few

times on each fire. Then, to release the farmers step on the
button. This will also

open the gates for you.

*A note about lightning - once you use it up its gone for good*

If you go through the gate on the left you will find a pool of oil
which you will

cross later and the chalice on a parapet along with an energy vial.

The gate on the right leads to a wall where there are two energy vials.
Further

along are two more vials. Now you can use the red rune on the
gate at the steps below

the walls.

If you catch on fire crossing the bridge just equip the dragon amour
and you'll be

fine.

When you enter the kings chamber you learn that you must find his crown
to

summon his ghost.

You must fall into the trap door in the floor, it has a yellow emblem
on it.

Upon entering the nether regions of the castle you will find two doors.
The door

to the left houses the crown and the volcano's floodgate. The
door on the right has

the exit to the surface and a life refill station.

Enter the king's chamber again and use the crown.

You are now dropped to a large room where you must defeat two
stone giants, hit

the floodgate switch and escape within 2 minutes.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

STONE GIANTS, to defeat the giants, equip the dragon amour and blow
them off the edge.

Be sure to pick up the green rune.
After you defeat the giants and kill a few

demons you will need to place it in the oil room across from the main
entrance

door. It is on your right as you come out of the giants room.
Now you need to

collect the chalice and manage to escape. Get the chalice and
then cross the oil

pool (purple) below the chalice parapet.

Thankfully, if you do die attempting escape you will restart at the
giants battle.

When you do cross the spot where the oil was you need to hit the switch
to release

the boulder to fall onto the catapult so that it will break the wall.
You then need

to jump on the catapult yourself. If you are running low on time
and life just leave

the damn treasure.

T. THE GHOST SHIP:
**WARNING: This level WILL drive you mad!!**

**Make sure that you have full life vials when you enter this level**
The crew skeletons are worthless so just avoid them and go for the officers.

They're the ones wearing blue jackets. Kill them and all of the
lesser skeletons

fall. The blue rune is in the crow's nest with the first officer.

Before crossing the moving floor boards you will want to use the blue
rune where

you started out to open the door. Inside you will find the yellow
(star) rune, an

energy vile and a gargoyle merchant.

If you fall into the holes where the floor boards are moving up and
down you'll be

alright because there is a lower room with some treasure.

When you get across to where the rolling barrels are use the yellow
rune to open

the door the next crow's nest.

To open the next door you need the red rune which is down to the right
past the

cannons.

You will have bounce across some nets and if you fall you will land
in a room

with large barrels. There are two hard-to-see exits from this
room. The first on

the right will take you to two energy vials and the right will take
you to another

room with large cannons. In some places you can duck. For
the last cannon run

and then use your dash (triangle button while running).

Work your way past them and get an energy vial. Taking the ramp
up will bring

you back to having to cross the nets again.

When you get across you can either continue via the swinging planks
or the

moving window shutters. If you cross the planks the camera angle
is particularly

bad and you will have to drop onto the moving windmill like machine.
If you

miss you will either fall to your death or land on the bridges where
you collected

the two energy vials outside of the large barrel room.

I suggest crossing the shutters. If you do so you will find a
life refill station.

proceed to the right and you will fight a few of the crew. If
you kill them then the

barrels will break and you can go after the officer. Killing
him will open the door.

Again I suggest using the run-around-hitting-the-square-button-like-crazy-method

for killing the crew.

You now can face the captain of the ship.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

GHOST CAPTAIN, to kill him you will need to light your club on fire
to light the cannons.

Fire them continually at the captain. Kill the crew as they will
come back to life.
To obtain the chalice, ride the windmill again and jump into the hanging
cage,

you will be taken up higher into the masts and will receive the chalice
and two

energy vials. One to the left and one to the right.

To exit this precarious level return to where you fought the captain.

U. THE ENTRANCE HALL:
Down the right stairwell is the chalice.

That's all there is to this level. It's a token level.

Use this level to refill your life bottles.

V. THE TIME DEVICE:
Go to the left and out into the small clocks. You will wrap around
and be behind

the butterfly.

Hit the switch and grab the white (time) rune.

Get on top of the large clock by dash-jumping from one of the brain
things on the

right. Walk up the ramp and use the white (time)

rune to remove the metal eyeball. When you get to the next butterfly
a clock will

drop and you must adjust the large clock to open it. Note the
time on this clock

that drops and adjust the large one using the two buttons.

Now pass through the butterfly gate and you will find a large spinning
machine.

Get up on the track around the machine and go off to the right.
Well you've found

the red rune in the middle of rolling clocks.

Get back on the track around the spinning machine and cross the bridge
across from

where you found the red rune. From the butterfly it is the bridge
on the left.

When you get there, there is a tube that you can jump up into to get
to a higher level.

Up here there is the chalice and a device which will shut off the electric
force fields

in the level.

Only problem is that the shutoff only lasts for 3 seconds and the chalice
is encased

in some type of glass.

The green rune is also up here off to the left encased in a force field
as well.

Hit the gravestone with the skull on it which turns off the electricity
and quickly also

hit one of the laser funnels so that the path of the current is broken.
All electicity

will now go off throughout the level until you turn it back on.
Collect the green rune to

the left, go back to where you came in, walk to the butterfly on the
right side and note

the time on the clock that drops.

Get back up onto the large clock. Adjust the time using the buttons
to correspond with

the butterfly's dropping clock time. This will open the butterfly
gate.

Inside the force field will be gone and you can get the life bottle.
There is also a

life refill station around the corner to the right.

Get back on top of the large clock and proceed north, you will need
to open the

butterfly gate again.

Proceed north across the bridge to the red rune door where you will
find the train.

Here you will also find the green rune door so open it.

Push the straight arm of the machine until it points at the exit.
Now jump on the

arm and walk up to the train.

Jump on the spikey part of the train and you are on your way.

The train will stop and you can collect the blue rune to your left.
Kill all of the

guards.

Jump back on the train and it will back up.

Now open the blue door, and turn the machine so that the train faces
the blue door

and the straight arm faces the entrance to the room. Get on the
train as before.

When you arrive at your destination, there is a life refill station
to your left.

If you go down the path in front of the track you will find a switch
to open half

of the exit level door.

The path behind the track leads to another switch which opens the other
half.

Get back on the train and now you can go for the chalice. To
the left of the

chalice platform is a small house out in the darkness with two bags
of gold on

its roof. To get to these, step off the edge onto the triangle
shaped platform.

There is also a pillar to the left of where you found the green rune.
According to

JhonnyK, you can jump off and land there. I have had a hard time
doing it so good

luck.

Before you do that though you'll want to grab your chalice. To
break the glass hit

all of the laser funnels until they form a square and the beam will
start up again

and break the glass. I know it makes no sense but it works.
You now have all of the chalices, that makes twenty and you can now
get the good

ending.
W. ZAROK'S LAIR:
The only thing here is the fight. When you enter his chamber open
the chests to

the right and left of you. To the right you will find the good
lightning. Using this

will damage you but protect your army. Find the life refill station
first then stand

on the grey circle to call your army. *NOTE* This life refill
station WAS there when

I played it. My version was a US version NTSC. Some people
have reported that it was

not there when they played through.
---BOSS STRATEGY---

SKELETAL ARMIES, you mustn't let your army perish or the game is over.
When they turn

yellow or red, they are about to die and need to be zapped with the
good lightning.

There is no limit of uses for the good lightning so zap away!
You'll get the hang

of it.

Just run around holding the X button and you should be alright.
Keep an eye out

for skeletons turning yellow or red and help them.

After you win the skeleton battle all of your remaining skeletons will
turn into

energy vials, collect them quickly.

**NEW INFO**

According to 'James' <cyber2th@earthling.net>, the dragon armour
is helpful in your battles

against Zarok and his skeletal horseman. Equipping it adds protection
from the horseman's

fireballs and should be coupled with the Gold sheild. The fire
that you can spew from

the suit apparently does very effective damage.

---BOSS STRATEGY---

SKELETAL HORSEMAN, when his shield is up you can't hurt him so just
avoid him until he

starts running around. When he does, nail him with the magic
longbow

repeatedly. *see above
---BOSS STRATEGY---

ZAROK, he turns himself into a funny lizard-like creature.

He has a force field about him most of the time. Use you magic
broadsword and run

around him in circles. Occasionally his shield will drop and
he will rear up on his

hind legs. When he does so, chop away at him. It will take
some time and patience,

remember to not get too close to him. *see above
After you defeat him you will see a short FMV and then the credits roll.
They're

not bad because they show clips from the game as well as animation
cells and

designs from the conceptualizing of the game characters and moments.

----------------------V. Endings--------------------------
We have found two endings so far. One where a bird carries Dan
to his crypt and he lies

down. You will get this ending if you did not collect all of
the chalices.

If you did collect them you will get the second ending. The FMV
will be of Dan at the

Hall of Heroes partying.
I recieved an email from Paul Donovan who claims that he was a programmer
involved in the

making of MediEvil. I am inclined to believe him. This
is what he said about the apple

with the hat in the end: "The apple wearing a red origami hat pictured
in the credits is

Mr Apple. He was an apple that I bought for lunch one day which Matt
Johnson (programmer)

nicked and kept on his desk. Katie Lea (mapper) made him a paper
hat. He lasted about

9 months without rotting due to the magical powers of the hat.
Something to do with

pyramids I guess..."
I will have to check this out myself. He told me a few other interesting
things if I can

figure out a place to add them appropriately I will.

***IMPORTANT NEW INFO!***
According to info found at GameSages (http://sages.ign.com/), there
is an expanded version

of the ending. I have not checked this out myself and am not
aware of the exact details

but here is how to check it out for yourself: (this is an exact transcription
from the

GameSages page)
To get the expanded ending get all the cups (19) in all 19 boards and
then go back to

the Enchanted Earth and use the rune to summon the witch at the pot.
Become small an

go into the ant hill. Rescue All the faires and get at
least seven pieces of amber.

Kill the ant queen and once you leave, the witch will give you a drumstick
and the fairy

will grant you passage to the hall of heroes. You will
see your statue solidified.

Then beat the game to see the extra part at the end.

I did not make these or use these but I have presented them for your
benefit.
Because there has been some confusion about these codes I will explain
a little.

For those of you inexperienced at gaming, to enter these codes requires
that

you purchase a Playstation accessory called a Game Shark. I believe
that it

plugs into the parallel port on the back of the Playstation.
With it equipped,

when you press the power button you will automatically be presented
with a special

screen for inputting these codes. I believe that sums it up so
PLEASE DO NOT ASK

ME ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT THEM. Refer any furthur questions on the
