MediEvil: How to Save the Farmers
The first step toward releasing the farmers in the Haunted Ruins stage is to dispatch the Shadow Demons that patrol the courtyard. While many weapons can be used to eliminate these foes, the Magic Longbow, which can be unlocked upon collecting 13 Chalices in MediEvil, is perhaps the best option. Indeed, this ranged weapon has the ability to slay Shadow Demons in a single shot, and players that equip it should make short work of these enemies.

After dealing with the Shadow Demons, fans of hack and slash video games should equip either the Club or Hammer and approach a fire that is under one of the distressed farmers. The player should strike that fire with their blunt weapon until the flame has been extinguished and then repeat this process to put out the remaining fires. With all three fires smothered, fans should simply stand on the nearby square button to lower the farmers and then follow them to collect a 150-coin prize.
With the farmers saved and the reward obtained, players are now free to explore the rest of the stage. This exploration will see fans ascend the castle, enjoy some MediEvil cutscenes, engage in a boss battle, and ultimately launch themselves back to the Hall of Heroes. Speaking with Imanzi after returning to this location will bestow two Energy Vials upon the player, and those are sure to come in handy as fans take on the game’s next stage.
For those players that are curious, that next stage is the Ghost Ship, and Sir Daniel Fortesque will find himself going toe-to-toe with a crew of skeletal pirates in it. While these enemies are not particularly difficult to overcome, MediEvil fans do need to be a bit careful of the various hazards that are scattered across the level. These hazards primarily take the form of flying cannonballs, and players will need to perfect their dodging if they hope to get to the bow of the Ghost Ship in one piece.
MediEvil is available on PS4.
