The Gnome's Name?!?!
I thought that the name of the Gnome was Nikstlitslepmur ( Rumpelstiltskin backwards) but that doesn't seem to work. What is his name! <p></p><i></i>

Try switching the l and the e in the name and see if that does the trick...<br><br>Anonymous Game Developer #1 <p></p><i></i>

Re: The Gnome's Name?!?!
The game actually responds to 2 seprate names for the gnome. Either nikstlitselpmur (from the later SCI versions) or ifnkovhgroghprm (from the AGI version and some early SCI versions). The latter uses a backwards alphabet and is considered to be Sierra's hardest and most unfair puzzle ever!<br><br> We left both possibilities in the game to try and keep the things fair for people who only knew one solution, depending on which version of KQ1 they played originally. <p><a href=http://www.qknowledge.net/RoyalQuest>Royal Quest 1 and King's Quest vga</a></p><i></i>
