PowerSlave, also known as Exhumed, was a successful game on the Sega Saturn and the Playstation. The MS-DOS version was much less popular, partly due to its shortcomings compared to the Sega and Playstation versions. Fortunately for us, a remake of the game called PowerSlave EX has been released in 2015, which is based on the console version. So if you've never had the chance to play Exhumed a.k.a.
