Problem:
How do I get rid of the witch?
Hint:
Remember the brass bottle you got out of the desert temple?
Well, it's time to use it. Give the brass bottle to the witch.
She's so greedy that she'll snatch up the bottle and open it.
Stand back and watch her own greed be her demise.
Problem:
What should I get from the witch's house?
Hint:
You'll need to take the pouch from her chest of drawers, the
spinning wheel from her trunk, and a key from her lantern.
Problem:
That witch keeps turning me into a frog. How do I protect myself
from her evil magic powers?
Hint:
You'll need to see the Gypsy, Madam Mushka. Give Madam Mushka
the gold coin you got from the desert temple. She will give you
a magic amulet that will protect you from the witch's evil
spells.
Problem:
I've seen a tree with a locked door on it near the witch's house.
How do I open it?
Hint:
Use the key that you got from the witch's lantern to unlock the
door of the tree.
Problem:
What should I find inside the tree?
Hint:
You should find a golden heart. Take it and give it to the
talking willow tree you saw outside the witch's forest.
Problem:
I've gotten rid of the witch, but now I seem to be trapped in the
witch's forest. How do I get out of here?
Hint:
To get out of the witch's forest, go one screen west from her
house. Select the honeycomb from your inventory, and squeeze the
honey out of it onto the trail. Then throw three emeralds onto
the trail. An elf will appear and lead you out of the witch's
forest.
Problem:
What do I do with the spinning wheel I got from the witch's
house?
Hint:
Remember the grandpa gnome you saw in the main forest? You now
have something that will interest him. This is a special
spinning wheel, which he'll gladly trade you for his grandson's
marionette.
The Main Forest
Problem:
Every time I go into the Swarthy Hog's Inn, a hardened criminal
knocks me unconscious, throws me into the basement, and the game
ends. What am I supposed to do here?
Hint:
Unfortunately, you will have to be knocked unconscious by the
disreputable thug and thrown in the basement. However, if you
made friends with the rat outside the Baker Brothers' Bake Shop
(by throwing an old shoe at the mangy cat chasing him), he'll
free you by gnawing the rope that they've tied you up with. Once
free, take the rope and use the hammer the shoe maker gave you
to break the lock on the door. Go into the kitchen and get the
leg of lamb, then exit the Swarthy Hog's Inn through the back
door of the kitchen.
Problem:
Where do I get a gold coin to give to the Gypsy, Madam Mushka?
Hint:
You can get a gold coin from the temple in the desert. It will
be on the floor beside a brass bottle.
Problem:
Cedric warns me to stay away from some bees in the hollow of a
tree. Should I stay away from those bees?
Hint:
Heed Cedric's advice. After all, you don't want a swarm of angry
bees after you! However, if you see a bear attacking the bee
tree, offer your assistance. Remember the fish you got out of
the barrel in town? Throw the fish to the bear. He'll leave the
bees alone and the queen bee will reward you for your kindness.
Problem:
How do I get the dog to stop digging up the ant castle?
Hint:
Be sure to pick up the stick at the base of the bee tree. Throw
the stick at the dog and he'll forget all about the ant castle.
And for your kindness, the king of the ants will vow to help you
with your journey later.
Problem:
How can I get the marionette from the little gnome boy and his
grandfather?
Hint:
Do you remember the spinning wheel you got from the witch? Well,
that was no ordinary spinning wheel! Offer this spinning wheel
to grandpa gnome and he'll trade you the marionette for it.
Problem:
How can I help both Prince Herbert and the talking tree?
Hint:
You will find out that the talking tree is actually Prince
Herbert's fiance. You can help her by returning her heart to
her. You'll find her heart locked inside a tree just one screen
east of the witch's house. Once you have the heart, return it to
the talking tree. She'll turn into the beautiful princess
Alicia. Since she'll no longer have a use for the harp she's
been playing, she'll toss it to the ground. Be sure to pick up
the harp.
Problem:
Where do I get the silver coin to buy a pie at the Baker
Brothers' Bake Shop?
Hint:
You can find a silver coin in the streets of the city. You'll
find it at an alley entrance near the tailor's shop.
Problem:
I've seen a large rat being chased by a mangy cat in front of the
Baker Brothers' Bake Shop. Should I try to help the rat?
Hint:
Yes, throw the old shoe (you found beside the skeleton in the
desert) at the cat. The rat will be so grateful, that he'll help
you later in your journey.
Problem:
How do I get the poisonous snake away from the path it is
guarding?
Hint:
When Madam Mushka's Gypsy caravan pulled away, they dropped a
tambourine at their old campsite. Shake the tambourine at the
snake and you'll scare him away.
Snowy Mountain
Problem:
I've come to a snowy ledge where a now-frozen waterfall has
washed away part of the path I'm traveling on. How do I get off
this ledge without dying?
Hint:
Use the rope you kept (from the basement of the Swarthy Hog's
Inn) and throw it over the rock on the edge of the cliff. You
can then climb up the cliff.
Problem:
I've come to a snowy ledge where a now-frozen waterfall has
washed away part of the path I'm traveling on. I've tried tying a
rope on the branch above me, but when I climb the rope the branch
breaks. How can I climb the rope without breaking the branch?
Hint:
Don't throw the rope around the branch. Instead, throw the rope
around the rock that's sticking out of the edge of the cliff
just above.
Problem:
I'm on the upper trail of the mountain now and the waterfall has
washed away parts of this trail as well. How do I join Cedric on
the other side?
Hint:
Carefully walk to the edge of the cliff and jump onto the small
boulders of ice protruding from the frozen waterfall. You can
hop on these boulders to get to the other side. Once you get
over there, walk on the log. You've now joined Cedric.
Problem:
Help! Cedric's been captured by a wolf! Every time I run after
him, I slip and fall off the mountain. How can I rescue him?
Hint:
Did you get the sled from the toy maker in town? You had to
trade him grandpa gnome's marionette for the sled. Use that sled
here to get down the mountain slope.
Problem:
I've seen a poor, hungry eagle outside Queen Icebella's Palace.
What could I give him?
Hint:
Yes. Feed him the leg of lamb (that you got from the kitchen
cupboard of the Swarthy Hog's Inn). However, be sure Graham eats
some of the lamb before giving the leg to the eagle.
Problem:
Graham is becoming hungry. What can I feed him?
Hint:
Feed Graham some of the lamb before giving the leg to the eagle.
Problem:
Queen Icebella keeps commanding her wolves to kill me. How can I
avoid this?
Hint:
Remember the harp Princess Alicia dropped? Well, play it for
Queen Icebella and she'll call off her wolves.
Problem:
How do you kill a Yeti anyway?
Hint:
You can kill the Yeti by throwing the pie (you got from the
Baker Brothers' Bake Shop) into the Yeti's face. After you've
killed the Yeti, go into Crystal Cave and get a glowing Crystal.
Problem:
I'm on a very confusing and windy path above a swift river
coursing its way through a ravine. How do I get out of here?
Hint:
You will notice a pool high up on the cliff where Cedric is
sitting. Move to the opening in the center of the cliff below
and Graham will climb the mountain to join Cedric. As soon as he
gets up there, he'll be captured by Roc and taken away to this
two-headed bird's nest.
The Hermit, Ocean Voyage, Island of Harpies
Problem:
I've seen a rusty crowbar on the beach. Should I take it?
Hint:
Yes. You never know when a rusty crowbar will come in handy.
Problem:
I'm at a hermit's house on the beach. I'm trying to talk to him,
but he's hard of hearing. How can I get him to hear me?
Hint:
To get the old hermit to hear what you have to say, travel to
island of Harpies and be sure to pick up a conch shell on the
beach. You can give the conch shell to him, which he'll use as a
hearing aid.
Problem:
There's a hole in the boat on the beach. How can I repair it?
Hint:
Use the beeswax to repair the hole in the boat. Your boat is now
ready for travel.
Problem:
The boat, Cedric, and I keep getting eaten by a giant sea
creature. How can we avoid being eaten?
Hint:
When you're traveling in the ocean, it's best to map your
journey to the island Harpies. The best way to avoid being eaten
by the sea creature is to travel a direct route to and from the
island of Harpies. When traveling from the beach where you found
the boat, go west, west, west, then south. When returning from
the island of Harpies to the hermit, go west, then south, south,
and south.
Problem:
How do I keep the Harpies from eating me?
Hint:
You can easily distract the Harpies from killing you by giving
them an object you have. Remember the harp you picked up from
Princess Alicia? Well, give it to one of the Harpies. They'll
fight over it and that will give you a chance to escape.
Problem:
Cedric's been hurt on the island of Harpies. Where can I take him
to be healed?
Hint:
You'll want to take Cedric back to the Hermit who is hard of
hearing. Also, be sure to pick up the conch shell from the
beach. You can give the shell to the Hermit, so he can hear you.
He'll heal Cedric by using special poultice herbs.
Problem:
I've seen a shell on the beach at the island of Harpies. Do I
need it?
Hint:
Yes. You can give the shell to the Hermit, which he'll use as a
hearing aid. He has many things to tell you and will assist you
in your journey.
Mordack's Island
Problem:
I've landed on Mordack's Island. When I walk up the path leading
to his castle, two cobra dragon statues kill me. How can I get
past them without being fried?
Hint:
Do you remember killing the Yeti for Queen Icebella? Well, after
you killed him, did you get a glowing crystal from Crystal Cave?
Use the crystal now to protect yourself from these dragons'
deadly breath!
Problem:
How do I get into Mordack's Castle?
Hint:
Don't go into the castle through the main door. Instead, walk up
the path on the east side of the castle. You will come to an
opening in the ground covered by a grate. Use the crowbar to pry
open the grate. You do have a crowbar, don't you? If not, you
can find the crowbar one screen west of the hermit's house.
Problem:
I'm lost in a maze inside Mordack's Castle. What am I supposed to
do in here and how do I get out?
Hint:
You will find two things in Mordack's maze; a Dink and a door.
When you find the Dink, give him the tambourine you got from the
Gypsy campsite and he will dance a crazy dance. While he's
dancing, one of Dink's hairpins will fall to the ground. Use the
Dink's hairpin to open the locked door.
Problem:
I'm in Mordack's supply room. What am I supposed to get here?
Hint:
Get the bag of peas out of the cupboard on the east wall.
Problem:
I'm in Mordack's kitchen and there's a woman cleaning the floor.
What does she want?
Hint:
Yes. Approach Cassima and give her the locket that you found in
Roc's nest. In return for your kindness, she will help you later
on.
Problem:
Every time I enter the hallway beside the kitchen, one of
Mordack's henchmen captures me and throws me into a prison cell
in the basement. How do I get past this henchman?
Hint:
When you see the henchman coming at you, throw the bag of peas
at him. He will slip on the peas and fall unconscious. Quickly
walk past him into the dining hall.
Problem:
I've been thrown into a prison cell in Mordack's basement. How do
I escape?
Hint:
Do you remember seeing the woman, Cassima, cleaning the kitchen
floor? Well, you needed to give her the locket that you found in
Roc's nest. Had you given her the locket, she'd have freed you
from the prison cell. Also, be sure to look in the rat's hole in
the prison cell and get the moldy cheese with the fish hook
(that you found on the island of Harpies). That moldy cheese
will come in very handy.
Problem:
I'm trying to go up the stairway beside the dining room, but
another one of Mordack's henchmen captures me and returns me to
the prison cell in the basement. How do I get past this one?
Hint:
This henchman is a little easier to get around than the first
one. Go into the dining room and walk to the northeast corner of
the dining table. The henchman will try to block your way. But
he's big and moves very slowly. Quickly walk around to the other
side of the table and walk right past him!
Problem:
I'm sneaking around Mordack's bedroom and a very mean cat keeps
alerting Mordack that I'm there. How do I keep this cat quiet?
Hint:
Remember when you landed on Mordack's island and wrecked the
boat? Well, right on the beach was a dead catfish. Did you get
the fish? If so, throw it at the cat and while he's eating the
fish carefully approach him and trap him in the empty bag of
peas. But do be careful, for he's a vicious cat!
Defeating Mordack
Problem:
I'm in Mordack's study. What's worth reading?
Hint:
Go over to his desk and take a look at the old tome. When you
thumb through the pages you'll acquire the tiger spell, the
mongoose spell, the rabbit spell, and the rain cloud spell. Wait
in the study until you see Mordack return to his bedroom and go
to sleep. Next, go into his bedroom and take the wand from his
nightstand.
Problem:
Every time I go into Mordack's laboratory, he sees me and kills
me. How do I avoid him killing me?
Hint:
Don't go in the laboratory when Mordack is there. First, you'll
want to go to Mordack's bedroom and then to his study. Read the
old tome in his study and wait there. After awhile, Mordack will
return to his bedroom and go to sleep. Go back into his bedroom
and get the wand from his nightstand. Now you can safely go into
his laboratory.
Problem:
I've got Mordack's wand. Now what?
Hint:
Go up the spiral staircase and put both Crispin's and Mordack's
wands into the machine upstairs. Next, put the piece of moldy
cheese (you got from the rat's hole in the prison cell of
Mordack's basement) into the machine. This will drain the power
from Mordack's wand and at the same time charge up Crispin's
wand. Finally, remove Crispin's wand from the machine.
Problem:
I've gone up a spiral staircase in Mordack's laboratory and have
found a machine. How do I use it?
Hint:
Put both Crispin's and Mordack's wand into the machine. Next,
put the piece of moldy cheese (you got from the rat's hole in
the prison cell of Mordack's basement) into the machine. This
will drain the power from Mordack's wand and at the same time
charge up Crispin's wand. Finally, remove Crispin's wand from
the machine.
Problem:
I've successfully drained Mordack's magical wand, but now he's
turned into a giant dragonfly. How do I defeat him?
Hint:
Be sure to get the spells by thumbing through the old tome in
Mordack's study. Then when Mordack comes after you as a
dragonfly, select Crispin's wand from your inventory. Point the
wand at Mordack and you'll be able to select from four spells.
To defeat the dragonfly, select the tiger spell.
Problem:
Mordack has turned himself into a dragon. How do I defeat him?
Hint:
Be sure to get the spells by thumbing through the old tome in
Mordack's study. Then when Mordack comes after you as a dragon,
select Crispin's wand from your inventory. Point the wand at
Mordack and you'll be able to select from four spells. To foil
Mordack's plans to destroy you this time, select the rabbit
spell.
Problem:
Mordack has turned himself into a cobra. How do I defeat him?
Hint:
Be sure to get the spells by thumbing through the old tome in
Mordack's study. Then when Mordack comes after you as a cobra,
select Crispin's wand from your inventory. Point the wand at
Mordack and you'll be able to select from four spells. To defeat
the cobra, select the mongoose spell.
Problem:
Mordack has turned himself into a ring of fire. How do I defeat
him?
Hint:
Be sure to get the spells by thumbing through the old tome in
Mordack's study. Then when Mordack comes after you as a ring of
fire, select Crispin's wand from your inventory. Point the wand
at Mordack and you'll be able to select from four spells. Select
the rain cloud spell and you'll rid your kingdom of Mordack.
Congratulations! You've won King's Quest V.
