You have been captured by the evil wizard Manannan,

who if you can't tell by the name, probably lives in

Greenwitch Village and skips to work wearing a pink flowing

gown. You must escape from Manannan, rescue your sister, and

take her back to Daventry in time, or the kingdom will suffer

further ruin and be destroyed, which we would not want to happen!

Because King's Quest III is so large (actually smaller than

King's Quest II), but difficult to map, it makes it very hard

to explain step-by-step how to solve it, so I am going to help

you solve this adventure, but not really: I will provide the

information necessary to do so, but for those of you who do not

want to take the cheaters way out, you will only get the hints

that you need.

Here we go...................

The following maps are the most "conceptual" maps that there

are: You may be at a point and go south, when you go north to

return to the beginning, you will not return to the point you

started at, but instead be to the left or right of the starting point.

There is a wrap-around effect in the game and it applies only to

the north/south borders.

* - Magical item which you may not possess while Manannan is

still in the house, unless you enjoy being killed!

O - Ocean, which you can not swim across completely or defend

yourself against sharks!

# - Non-accessible area which is between/in the cliffs, chasms,

walls, mountains, etc.

You have exactly 30 minutes on the game clock in which to either

gather your stuff together and solve the adventure or return to

the house, stash the stuff under your bed (pay attention, clue #1)

and then wait for Manannan to blow off.

---Remember to ALWAYS put the wand back when you return home.

--|

| ---Remember to ALWAYS shut the trap door & move the book back.

|----------If you do not do this then Manannan will blow you into

cocaine dust.

Just as a brief note: The majority, 99%, of these maps have

been drawn as an overhead/cross-section view, but I guess by now

you have seen that!

In the following pages you will have the numeric key to the

above maps. To understand them you must be at least 10 years in

age and be able to read 3 syllable words. I will list the # of

the map location followed by the description of the location, and

then all the things that should be done on the screen. Now bear

in mind that you may have to complete certain conditions in order

to perform certain commands. See hint 2 below for example.

Extra Hints:

1] To poison the porridge, place the cookie in it.

2] To get the cat fur: a)Hold cat

b)Get fur

3] To stay safe during the journey to Daventry while on the

Pirate's ship, remain at the rear of the ship untill you reach

land. You have to figure it out from there.

4] SAVE YOUR GAME FREQUENTLY!!!!! I used the following format

when I saved a game:>

136/210 : Captn.Room : 1:26:23

This is the score I have : Location : Time used

5] The eagle will drop the feather randomly, so GET IT !

Before we continue let me just say I finished King's Quest III,

but did NOT have all the points, which I don't give a crap

about. I attribute the loss in points to the following:

Failure to complete the folowing spells:

----------------------------------------

Understanding the Language of creatures(10 pts)

Causing a deep sleep(10 pts)

Failure to gain the following objects:

--------------------------------------

Reptile skins

Acorns

I needed the above two objects to complete the above two spells,

simple, isn't it!

Points not listed in Map/Tutorial

---------------------------------

Leaving the pirate ship and making it to Daventry(5 pts)

Evading abominable snowman(4 pts)

*Cat fur(1 pt)

*Eagle feather(2 pts)

Dropping fish powder(4 pts)

Poisoning Manannan with porridge(10 pts)

IMPORTANT: When Manannan first appears, he will ask you to go do

something, DO IT, you get now points, but then you

won't get turned to cocaine either!!

can obviously take place. i.e.: you must have the key in order to open

the wizard's safe.
