| DarthHelmet86 | Arete you need to turn into a fly to hear something, that something leads to some money that then leads to an ingredient you need to turn Manannan into a cat. Thus for full points you need the Fly spell and Cat spell. |

| arete | A good walkthrough is a must. Are you using the Magic Map from on top of Mana...nanan's wardrobe? Makes your life far easier. Just keep an eye on the clock, get the ingredients you need to use against him first, and worry about the ones for transforming into an eagle etc for later. |

You don't need to use the cheat code...you need to wait for him to LEAVE THE HOUSE. He goes on a trip as I said around the 7 minute mark and comes back at around the 25 minute mark. The time is on the top of the screen in the original version and on at least one of the remakes. I have beaten this game before and never had to cheat. It is also one of the two Kings Quest games I like. While I will admit it is a hard game, it is still easy enough to beat. If you are reading the walk-through that I think you are it is a bad one, it will not get you full points for starters. |

If he pops up before you get to the room, then no, no you can't. The only way to be sure to get to the room is to use the teleport cheat. A game that requires you to use a cheat code is a failure as a game.

You hide the items with Stars next door to them in your inventory under the bed. And the timer is rather easy to work out and beat, Manannan leaves at around 7 or so minutes and will come back at around 25. If you want to use a walk-through I would suggest simply using it to find out where the items you need for the Transform into Fly or Eagle and the Turn Person into Cat spells are and rush to get them done (you need to turn into a fly to hear something to get max points). Leave the other spells until you have dealt with Manannan. Or you can collect everything you can and make sure it is all hidden by the time Manannan is due back then wait for him to go to sleep. Once you know what you are doing this game is no harder then any of the other Sierra games, and much easier then Laura Bow 1. At least you can see the time in this one and don't accidentally move further ahead then you want. |

As long as you put all your items in the chest next to your bed, he doesn't suspect. You just have to time yourself properly. If I can do it, so can you

This game is horrible. Even with a walk through, the time limit and the random nature made it impossible to complete, even with a walk through. So yeah, you can do everything right and still die because the evil wizard happened to teleport into the room at JUST the wrong time. This gleeful evil mindedness is a hall mark of Sierra adventures, but this one takes it to new and despairing heights, or should I say depths. Unlike other AGD remakes, I really hesitate about downloading it. Sure, the graphics are are stunning, easily comparable to, if not better then, VGA era Sierra graphics. But the game it was based on was so excruciatingly horrid, I wonder if it is worth it. As for this game, the graphics, well, they are impressive for the AGI engine, really eking out some of the best performance possible with the limited engine, kudos on that. The Dragon seen in one of the screenshots on the review page is especially impressive. But the game is so evil minded, I don't want a repeat, no matter how pretty. Yeah, I hate this game, can you tell? |

I have not played it yet, but from what I read they added stuff to the game. This might ruin the game for me as KQ3 is one of my favourite KQs...in fact along with 6 they are my only favourite KQ games. Oh well I will post once I have played it and beaten it, first steps though is a Let's Play with Resulka on Youtube of the original game. |

Its out since a week or so. @Darth seems they change some there and here but not as much like KQ2 where the Story got overhauled. But dont ask me what got changed... edit: KQ 1+2 also got patched up to fixes some bugs and there is now a MAC-Version of the Games too. |
