Here's something funny, navynuke,
[spoiler]After I finished the game, I restored the final autosave, inside Trogdor's lair. It ended up being a little glitchy and all the messages told me that Trogdor was awake, even though he was still sleeping. I made my peace with him, and suddenly he was awake and killed me. I never threw the sword! At that point the game ended and I had 148 points![/spoiler]
Weird!

I finished with 144 points, and I think it was because I discovered a couple of secrets:
[spoiler] When you get the baby I found out there was a couple things you could do with him before the cottage. If you put him in the bucket in the well he'll come back up with a meatball sub, and if you show him to the old man at the inn you'll get some pills. If you give these things to the hooded guys in trogdors cave you can forego the first and last trivia question and get more points as well.
And if anybody knows where to get whatever you need to give the second guy to skip his question too, I'd love to hear it. [/spoiler]
Oh, and it's cool to be a newly registered member here with my very first post. I think you guys are cool and I love you all. Awwwwww.....
Much love

Quest for Glory Fan, this one's for you, cuz I love ya!!!!
Well, that and the fact that I currently have no job and therefore have a lot of time on my hands...
OVERLY DETAILED WALKTHROUGH OF PEASANTS QUEST!!!
So detailed, even an idiot can beat the game with this...
[spoiler]ok, First thing you want to do is talk to that knight fellow you're standing in front of right now. Hmmm...so I guess your quest is to stink, look, and be on fire like a pesant, and seeing as how you can't simply kill the knight (believe me I tried) you might as well do as he says.
But first, go back to the burninated hut you just came from and type "look cottage" and then "get paper" in order to, well, get the paper you find there. You now have a "map". You don't actually get any points for this but it can be useful for finding your way around.
Next you want to go one screen to the right and look at the pebbles along the sandy shore of the lake, type "get pebbles" then head one screen north.
"talk" to the archer guy and he'll ask you to say "haldo" to his brother if you ever come across him. Gee, I wonder if you're going to meet his brother sometime in the game now?
Now go one more screen north and notice the well there. When you type "turn " they tell you that you need to put something heavy in the bucket. Hmmmmm... now what do you have that's heavier than it looks??
Type "put pebbles in bucket" and then turn the again and waLA! You've got yourself a new monster maskus. Man, this thing could scare a horse (HINT, HINT!!).
Go two screens over and "wear mask" in front of poor old gary the fleabitten horse. He'll run off screen and make a new opening for you.
When you go through the opening in the fence you discover a hidden glen, and lo and behold, there is an archer there!! Now who could that guy possibly be related to??
Side note: For fun you can save your game and walk into the path of his arrows. In fact, you should always die every chance you get, as long as you save first. Half the fun of any good adventure game is watching all the cool ways you can die, and Peasants Quest is no exception.
Type "haldo" and the archer will return to his brother in what I'm sure must be a tearful reunion with his long lost brother with lots of hugs and "I love you man"s. But anyway, be sure to "get" one of the arrows from the tree before you leave as you will need it later, and you might as well get it now instead of wasting precious seconds later as you walk all the way over to that screen when the time comes when you really do need it. You procrastinator you!!
So now if you go back to where the archery range is you'll find the two brothers seated behind the table. You can "talk" to them and they'll tell you that you can only play their archery game if you give them some kind of mysterious "super item". Gee, now that's gratitude for ya, after all you went through for them!!
Now, if you want to follow the story and/or want to at least pretend that you are figuring this stuff out on your own instead of being a lousy cheat by reading this( :P ) you can do that last part. But if you want to just completely forego thinking on your own by reading this straight through, or if you're just one of those psycho gamers that has to get through the game as quickly as possible so you can tell all your geeky friends "I beat the game in less time than you" you can just go straight from the hidden glen to where you can get that "super" item and go to the cottage with all those bushes around it, which is on the second to right screen at the bottom of your map.
When you get there, look at the bushes. Type "get berries" while standing in front of all four bushes there, and when you reach the last bush you'll get a "super trinket".
While you're there you might as well get to know one of your neighbors here in pesantville, or whatever this kingdom is called. So "knock" on the door, or just go inside if you don't care about that non-existent peasant's feelings, and meet the single mother inside.
"Talk" to her and she'll ask a favor of you. Why you should do anything for this pushy woman you only just met is beyond me. But that's just what adventure heros do.
Side note: If you want to, you can also have some fun and "ask about" things like "jhonka" , "Trogdor", and "baby".
While you're there take a look around the cottage, notice anyting on those shelves?
Type "get feed" and then head back to the archery range.
"Give super trinket" to the archer brothers and then you can play their little archery game to get your very own bow.
The archery game itself is quite simple enough, but if the logistics of an old AGI game are just too complicated for you I'll give you some tips. As the brothers tell you, you need to get at least three bullseyes with your five arrows. Now, any experienced Sierra gamer should already know that any time you see some digital rag attached to a digital branch that is flapping around, that is an indicator of digitzed wind. So you must position your bow according to the wind, i.e. if the rag is flapping high to the right, then position you bow far to the left of the bullseye, and vice versa. Once you're satisified with the position of your bow you can push the space bar. This will send those wierd black triangles attached to the bar on the left of the screen to fly up. You have to time it to push the space bar again when the arrows are exactly at the point of the red line, that will stop the first little black triangle, then time it again to stop the second black triangle on the red line. If you don't get it the first time just "talk" to the brothers and you can play again.
So now you have your bow. And hopefully, if you had listened to me before you already have your arrow. But if not you can now waste precious time going and getting it while kicking yourself the whole way thinking "Why didn't I just do as Matt told me? He's so much smarter and better looking than me. Why can't I just realize that if I do everything he says that my life will be perfect??!"
So anyway, hopefully NOW you really do have your bow and arrow, so now all you need is something to shoot at. The game won't let you shoot any of your fellow humans (though it would have been more fun if they had) so I guess you'll have to shoot that big ogre thing you may have seen while wandering around that may have pounded you into the ground
if you got too close.
So go find the Kerrek (He's in one of two possible screens. You know, the ones with the KERREK tracks in them?? ) and then type "shoot arrow". Boy, now don't you feel special after all that? Oh, and don't forget to "get belt" from the Kerrek after you have slayed him.
Now that that's all finished you can work on fullfilling the request of that pushy peasant woman and go see that jhonka who is now outside his cave along with his riches. But before that, go to the screen where that dried mud puddle was before and walk into the newly watered mud. (Just trust me on this ok? You do remember that arrow incident don't you?)
Now that you're all mud covered go to the Jhonka. You can't get the riches with him standing right there so you'll have to be more sneaky about it. Maybe some kind of disguise might work? Now, you're all covered in STICKY mud, maybe you could get something to stick the mud too? Maybe some kind of pile of plants?
Go one screen north of the cave and "jump in hay". Now go back down one screen and "get riches". Now exactly why the jhonka would notice you taking the gold but not some huge, moving bale of hay with human arms reaching out of it is beyond my humble intellect. But logic is not something that those early computer game writers really used very much.
Oh well, just repeat to yourself "It's just a game, I should really just relax" and move on.
As soon as you get the gold the jhonka will ask you a question. The answer to said question should be so obvious that I won't even tell it to you here, so hah! You only have two options here, if one doesn't work, use the other.
So now you've got a huge pile of gold. If you were a sane person you would now completely abandon your quest and go off to some tropical paradise to fritter it away on wine and women. But alas you are an adventure game hero, so go give that pile of riches to that undeserving, pushy pesant woman.
So go back to the lady's cottage and type "give riches". Boy, I bet you weren't expecting her to do that were you?
So now that you've got own adorable, precious baby son you have the opportunity to care for it in ways that only Micheal Jackson or that Croc Hunter guy would. There are three things you can use the baby to get before you get rid of him. You don't have to do these things but you get more points if you do. Isn't it great of the Homestarrunner people to reward child abuse?
So first thing you can do is go to the middle of the sandy shore of the half lake to the left of the fisherman and "throw baby". That's right, that funny preview wasn't just a joke, you really do this. You get a soda for your horrible act.
Second, you can go to the well and "put baby in bucket". Instead of getting you jail time, this gets you a sub sandwich. You also have to "turn " when he's down there....but you were smart enough to remember that right?
Finally, you can go to the inn and "show baby" to the old man there. You get some pills for your troubles.
Of course, you can only show the baby to the old man if you have already helped him catch some fish while he was out on the lake. But I already told you how to do that didn't I?
Wait... umm...let's just look back through what I've typed here... hmmm...uuhhh...I could've sworn I...
...uhhhh... ummm...SHUT UP!! I'm still smarter than you!!
Just remember who's already beaten this game and who needs a walkthrough to get through it, punk!!
Fine, to help out the old man on the lake just go to the middle of the sandy shore and type "use feed"
Now that that's all taken care of, go to the one cottage that you haven't done anything with yet, the one that next to the fence. If you "look Cottage" you will notice that it's stonework is rather shoddy, and if you "look stone" you will notice that one of the stones is loose. Hmmm, what to do, what to do...
"Move stone" and you will now have a hole in the wall that a mini-sized person could fit through. Got any of those?
"Use baby" and he will crawl through the cottage and open the door for you. He will also have enough sense to keep on crawling and leave your sorry buttt behind to strike out on his own, and who could really blame him after what you did?
So go in the cottage already!! There you will find nothing but a dresser.
It shouldn't take a genius to know to "open drawer" and then "get" what is inside.
However it does take one to know that if you "close drawer" you'll actually get an extra point for it.
And now that you look and smell like one of them you are just one step away from being a full fledged peasant, lets see if we can't get you on fire.
After a hard day of questing, you deserve to go someplace where you can get a good nights rest.
Head to the inn and type "get a room" (You put on your robe already right?)When you wake up you will notice the pantry is open. "look pantry" and you'll see two things you can get. Can you guess which one?
"Get pot" and you will soon be stumbling around like those who like to "get" that other kind of pot. You read what the dialougue box said, get out of there!! I know that the directional buttons are all messed up but you can figure that out can't you?
Once you're outside go down one screen to the now burning lamp. Remember how your hood is covered in highly flammable grease? Forget what a sane person would do and go do the game hero thing.
Walk into the lamp. Now you are finally good to go!! Go back north to the screen with the knight. "talk" to him and you can finally go get some peasant revenge!!!!
So the next part is pretty straightforward, even you should be able to figure out what to do next. Like they say, the trick is to avoid the boulders, not go after them. You also want to avoid those crazy petrosaur-looking birds while you climb as well.
So you made it to the top. Think you're pretty cool huh? Well then go in the cave already!
So now you're in a cave with a bead curtain across from you. Walk towards it and you'll be detoured by three hooded guys that for some unknown reason are Trogdor's Keepers. You can choose to "take quiz" and answer their multiple choice questions or you can just give them the stuff you got with the baby. You should be able to figure out who gets what easily enough.
Side note: To see some really fun ways to die, answer the questions wrong for each guy. But save your game first...or not, it's your life after all, and frankly I'm getting tired of having to tell you how to do every little thing!
So now you've finally come to the end of your quest, there, right before you, is a sleeping Trogdor. So run right up to him and slay that beast with your mighty Trog-sword!!
Oh, so you got burned to a crisp before you could get close to him eh? Yeah, that happened to me too.
So you want to plunge that sword into Trodgors hide but you always die before you can get close enough to do it. Hmmm....that is a problem.
If only there were a way you could get that sword into him without your hand actually grasping the sword. Like maybe you could get it to fly through the air somehow. But how could you do that?
Type "throw sword".
Hmmm... that didn't seem to work as well as you had hoped did it? Well now you are weaponless in front of a towering Trogdor ready to completely kill the life out of your tender hide. Suckss to be you.
Well, maybe it's about time you realized that may not be the answer. Look at him, he looks like a nice enough snarling monster, maybe you could reason with him and settle your differences peacefully.
"Talk" to the man! ...I mean, uh, dragon-man... I mean, uhhh, dragon. Yeah, talk to the dragon.
Well it looks like your differences were settled in a perfectly civilized manner weren't they? That ol Trogdor was pretty nice guy after all. Aren't you honored? Congratulations!! You have now beat Peasant Quest!!
No really, you have, that's really how it ends...
No REALLY, I'm serious!!! That's really all there is!! All I have left now is a couple of extra non-point-earning things you could have done for fun before the game ended.
Here they are. (I'm totally serious, you really did get the best ending you possibly could, there's nothing more)
If at any point you decide you want to die (in the game I mean) just simply type "die" and guess what. You'll die!
You probably noticed a EGA guy peeking from behind a tree in your travels. I was never able to figure out anything I could do with him involving point earning, but if you "Talk" to the tree on the same screen as he is, you will learn his name. Then if you "Talk" to the guy using his name, you will get a different response from him. Also, if you look at that robe you "borrowed" you will find his initials on it. So you should basically be glad that guy is cuz if her weren't then you'd have no way of getting to the cave.
So that's all I got. I hope you enjoy playing playing Peasants Quest as much as I enjoyed wasting the hours it took to write all this which I probably should have spent looking for a job.
[/spoiler]
So with all that, I managed to get 149 points out of 150, and I still have one missing item slot. So if anybody knows what it is I'm missing I'd be glad to hear it.
oh, and zeus, I counted 27 screens total in the game. Hope that helps you out.
Man!!
Did I really just spent all this time writing all that? That should count for at least two or three posts Erpy!!
Man, I need to get a job...
Well, that and the fact that I currently have no job and therefore have a lot of time on my hands...

"Get pot" and you will soon be stumbling around like those who like to "get" that other kind of pot. You read what the dialougue box said, get out of there!! I know that the directional buttons are all messed up but you can figure that out can't you?
Once you're outside go down one screen to the now burning lamp. Remember how your hood is covered in highly flammable grease? Forget what a sane person would do and go do the game hero thing.
Walk into the lamp. Now you are finally good to go!! Go back north to the screen with the knight. "talk" to him and you can finally go get some peasant revenge!!!!
So the next part is pretty straightforward, even you should be able to figure out what to do next. Like they say, the trick is to avoid the boulders, not go after them. You also want to avoid those crazy petrosaur-looking birds while you climb as well.
So you made it to the top. Think you're pretty cool huh? Well then go in the cave already!
So now you're in a cave with a bead curtain across from you. Walk towards it and you'll be detoured by three hooded guys that for some unknown reason are Trogdor's Keepers. You can choose to "take quiz" and answer their multiple choice questions or you can just give them the stuff you got with the baby. You should be able to figure out who gets what easily enough.
Side note: To see some really fun ways to die, answer the questions wrong for each guy. But save your game first...or not, it's your life after all, and frankly I'm getting tired of having to tell you how to do every little thing!
So now you've finally come to the end of your quest, there, right before you, is a sleeping Trogdor. So run right up to him and slay that beast with your mighty Trog-sword!!
Oh, so you got burned to a crisp before you could get close to him eh? Yeah, that happened to me too.
So you want to plunge that sword into Trodgors hide but you always die before you can get close enough to do it. Hmmm....that is a problem.
If only there were a way you could get that sword into him without your hand actually grasping the sword. Like maybe you could get it to fly through the air somehow. But how could you do that?
Type "throw sword".
Hmmm... that didn't seem to work as well as you had hoped did it? Well now you are weaponless in front of a towering Trogdor ready to completely kill the life out of your tender hide. Suckss to be you.
Well, maybe it's about time you realized that may not be the answer. Look at him, he looks like a nice enough snarling monster, maybe you could reason with him and settle your differences peacefully.
"Talk" to the man! ...I mean, uh, dragon-man... I mean, uhhh, dragon. Yeah, talk to the dragon.
Well it looks like your differences were settled in a perfectly civilized manner weren't they? That ol Trogdor was pretty nice guy after all. Aren't you honored? Congratulations!! You have now beat Peasant Quest!!
No really, you have, that's really how it ends...
No REALLY, I'm serious!!! That's really all there is!! All I have left now is a couple of extra non-point-earning things you could have done for fun before the game ended.
Here they are. (I'm totally serious, you really did get the best ending you possibly could, there's nothing more)
If at any point you decide you want to die (in the game I mean) just simply type "die" and guess what. You'll die!
You probably noticed a EGA guy peeking from behind a tree in your travels. I was never able to figure out anything I could do with him involving point earning, but if you "Talk" to the tree on the same screen as he is, you will learn his name. Then if you "Talk" to the guy using his name, you will get a different response from him. Also, if you look at that robe you "borrowed" you will find his initials on it. So you should basically be glad that guy is cuz if her weren't then you'd have no way of getting to the cave.
So that's all I got. I hope you enjoy playing playing Peasants Quest as much as I enjoyed wasting the hours it took to write all this which I probably should have spent looking for a job.
[/spoiler]
So with all that, I managed to get 149 points out of 150, and I still have one missing item slot. So if anybody knows what it is I'm missing I'd be glad to hear it.
oh, and zeus, I counted 27 screens total in the game. Hope that helps you out.
Man!!
Did I really just spent all this time writing all that? That should count for at least two or three posts Erpy!!Man, I need to get a job...

that's what I just told you, there is no item. there is supposed to be a missing space in your inventory, it is just there to confuse you.
thanks swift!
oh Perhaps I should read your posts more carefully before responding to them eh?
I'd still love to know what you did that I didn't in order to get that last point though.
