Hey, it's me frog doing something that I never thought I'd do. I'm writing for a
Web game. Yes, the site that it is from is www.homestarrunner.com, one of the
funniest sites in existance aside from Newgrounds. No, this might be better... I
don't know. Anyway, I never knew that this game existed unitl today (August 8,
2004) when some of my friends told me to play this game. They said it was really
fun, addictive, and difficult, etc. etc. etc. Well Peasant's Quest isn't exactly
difficult... once you finally figure out how to work it. Basically the whole game
is text-related. You perform actions by typing stuff in. For example, if you want
to grab a pebble you'll grab "grab pebbles." If you want to put the pebbles in a
bucket you type "put pebbles in bucket."
Sometimes it can be difficult to figure out where to go next since you have to
walk around typing in commands. It gets a lot easier as you go along. Each time
you complete an objective, you get a certain amount of points. Some objectives
give you one point, some give you up to ten. You can get up to 150 points, though
it's not required. You can get maybe 135 and still be able to finish the game.
There's a series of sidequests that you can do to get the extra points. There is
a single mini-game (archery!) and a single enemy which you can eliminate
permanetly once you figure out how to kill it. The game is basically about you
returning from a vacation to find that the evil Trogdor has "burninated" (that's
the term used in the game) your house.
You go to the Trogdor's cave to seek revenge but the night there tells you that
you're not a peasant and only peasants can go through. So basically you're trying
to become a peasant in the game by completing certain goals. It's very addictive,
but short. You can get 150 points in maybe 45 minutes to an hour without a guide
and even less with a guide. Also, there are save files if your computer has
cookies. You can save or load files from your computer. Each time you get points,
it automatically saves but you can save yourself by typing "SAVE" and you can
load a game by typing "LOAD." You can defeat this in one sitting though so you
probably won't end up doing that. Okay, I've said enough about the game, on to
the main walkthrough!

| |%%%%% Walkthrough %%%%%| WALK |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
-------------------====================--------------------===================
This is a surprisingly fun game found on the famous www.homestarrunner.com. At
the games selection, shoot "Peasent's Quest" to start the game. Read the "Tips
For Morons" if you have been playing for the first time. If you're just reading
this guide to get all 150 points (which is the best you can get, though there's
no rewards or anything from getting it. Some points in the game can also be
frustrating, but you'll have to live with that :) Anyway, at the start of the
game you'll find that the evil Trogdor has "burninated" (that's the phrase used
in the game) your house and you're out for revenge. You are automatically at the
foot of the Trogdor's cave entrance. Walk up to the knight. To talk to him, say
"talk man."
He'll tell you that he can't let you in because you don't look like a peasant.
Yes, it's a very weird goal but here's your three main objectives: you must smell
like a peasant, dress like a peasant, and get lit on fire (0_0) like a peasant.
Those are your three main goals and that's what the whole game is about. So we
first need to stink like a peasant. You have some work cut out for you for this
one. If you tap an arrow key once, then you'll start walking in one direction.
Tap it again and you'll stop. Don't hold them or you'll start walking and
stopping rapidly which makes you go pretty slow. Go west to River and Stone
(that's the name of the place) and then head south to find a fisherman. From
where you are, type "talk man" to speak to him.
He isn't catching any fish and he thinks he's using the wrong bait. This is
important information for later so keep it in mind. Head south once more to find
a cottage, called the Baby Lady Cottage. There are berry bushes around it. Go to
the closest one and type "search bush" and you'll find nothing. You have to
search all four (in any order) and on the fourth one you'll find a SUPER TRINKET
(2/150 - this means that you get two points out of the 150 in the game). Now walk
up to the door and type "open door" to head inside. There's a lady with a baby
here. Walk over to the shelves first and type "get feed" since there's chicken
feed on the shelf. You'll get the CHICKEN FEED (3/150). You'll need this for
later in the game (for the fisherman, but don't go to him yet).
Go the woman and say "talk woman." She'll start complaining to you about how her
husband was killed by the Trogdor and her insurance riches were stolen. She wants
you to steal them back for her (we do this later). Walk back to the outside. Go
west one screen to find an enemy. This is the only one in the game (if it's not
there, then it's in a different location - the monster resides at two different
spots) and it can crush you instantly. Rush past it by going north up to the next
screen. Here, you'll find some pebbles by a lake. Walk on top of the pebbles and
type "get pebbles" to grab a handful of PEBBLES (4/150). Now for a funny
statement, head to the lake and type "throw baby." A comment will appear about
how you misread the GameFAQs walkthrough.
This serves no significance (though you'll need to toss a baby in here later).
Now go south to the enemy square and south once more to reach the Old Well. Stand
in front of the crank on the right side and type "put pebbles in bucket" (no
other statement will work). The pebbles will lower down into the well (6/150).
Now type "use crank" to pull the bucket back up. Inside is a MASKUS, but you
don't get any points for it. It's very important though. Now go west. You might
encounter the monster here if you haven't encountered it yet. Go north to find a
big tree taking up a part of the screen. Stand behind the tree (not directly
behind it) and wait. A naked man (don't worry, only the top half) will pop out.
Typing "talk man" will scare the man away.
Type "talk tree" and the man will be revealed as Naked Ned. Type "talk naked ned"
and the guy will tell you that this meeting never happened. This does nothing,
but it's a really random thing in the game. Oh well. Head north one more square
to find your Burninated House. Head inside the house and type in "get map" to
grab the map of the world. This can be pretty useful. Just type "map" at any time
to bring up your map. Now go south three timess (avoid the enemy if it's there).
You'll find a cracked mud puddle. It's not useful at the moment so head east.
You'll find an Archery area. Talk to the man ("talk man") at the counter (you
have to be in front of the counter). He'll tell you to say "haldo" (not hello,
"haldo") if you ever see his brother (8/150).
Our next mission is to find the archer's brother. Go south to appear on the
northern square once more. Now head west all the way to the end. You'll find a
horse surrounded by fleas... yeah. Anyway, walk up to the horse and type "use
maskus" and you'll put the mask on. This will scare the crap out of the horse,
who will charge through the fence in fear (10/150). Head through the hole that
Gary (the horse) made to find an archer. Talking to him will cause him to mumble
"stupid Meldev" which will tell you that this is the archer's brother. Type
"haldo" to him and he'll rush back to his brother's business (13/150). Before
leaving, walk up to the tree and type "get arrow" to get a really good ARROW
(15/150).
Now head back east one screen. Go south one sqaure and then east until you end up
at the archer's business again. Walk up to them and talk to either one. They'll
tell you if you give the right super item then you can play their game to win a
SuperTime FunBow TM. Type "give super trinket" and they'll allow you to play
their game. This took forever for me to figure out but it's finally gotten to me.
You use the arrow keys to move the bow and the space bar to shoot (well, they
tell you that part). What was hard was figuring out WHY the arrows kept hitting
in places where you didn't aim. You need to hit three bulls-eyes (the very
center) with five arrows. So you have two chances to miss. If you look on the
right side, there's a flag.
The flag has five different animations. It can either be blowing hard to the left
or right, slightly blowing to the left or right, or be hanging on the pole. This
determines the wind. If it's blowing hard to the left, then move to the right and
aim at the outer white circle (and vice versa if it's blowing hard to the right).
If it is slightly blowing to the left, then move to the inner white circle on the
right (vice versa once more). If there is no wind, then you can simply get in the
middle and aim directly at the bulls-eye. Press space and two arrows will start
moving on a bar in the bottom-right corner of the screen. When they both hit the
red line, press space. You should stop the left one on the red line. The right
one will continue to move up.
When it comes back down, stop it on the line. It's not a difficult thing to do.
If you mess up, your aim will be off. You have an unlimited number of tries so if
you mess up, just talk to them again. Once you finally beat the game, you'll get
the SUPERTIME FUNBOW TM (20/150). This can be used to kill the Kerrek, which is
the only enemy in the game (duh). Bring up the map and look at the two spots that
have footprints. The Kerrek is in one of those two spots. They are both the same
distance away so choose whichever one and hope it's right. If it's wrong, go
north (if you chose the north one) or south (if you chose the south one) for a
shortcut to the other side of the map. When you encounter the Karrek, quickly
type "use box" and you'll autmatically pull it out (assuming you followed my
instructions and got the arrow).
The Karrek will die with you brilliant aim (25/150). Suddenly, it'll start to
rain. Walk over to the Karrek and type "take belt" to retreive the Karrek's BELT
(35/150). You now stink like a peasant so you're one-third of the way to becoming
an actual peasant. Now return to the archery area. From there, go west one
screen. The cracked dirt is now mud thanks to the rain. Walk in it and you'll
slip, getting you very very very muddy (37/150). Nice, you ruined your shirt. Go
west one screen to find a pile of hay. Walk up to it and type "jump in hay" to
leap inside (40/150). Since you're all muddy, the hay will stick to your body.
For some reason, it's too windy on the north and east screens so go south. You'll
find the Jhonka with the stolen riches that the woman had!
With your hay disguise, walk over to the riches and type "steal riches" to grab
all of the treasure there. Suddenly, a wind will blow away your hay, revealing
your now clean body. The Jhonka will ask if you stole his riches. If you say
"yes" then it's game over for you. If you say "no" then the Jhonka, for some
reason, will believe you and let you go (47/150). Go south one screen and then go
east a few screens until you find the cottage with the doorknob (there's one with
no doorknob). Inside, say "give back riches" and the woman will give you her baby
as a reward (52/150). That's really weird but oh well. Anyway, she does this all
the time and she's wanted throughout the country. So basically, those riches WERE
the Jhonkas and now he's broke.
Nice one you ass. Anyway, you can do a lot of things with this baby but we're not
going to start just yet. Head outside and go north one screen to find the
fisherman. Stand in the center of the shore and type "give feed." You'll throw
all the chicken feed into the pond as you say goodbye to all of them. The man
will catch a bunch of fish and head back to his inn (54/100). Now that the inn is
occupied, you can head there. Go east one screen and you'll be at the inn. Head
inside to find the old man behind the counter. Talk to the man and he'll tell you
to type "get a room" if you want to stay the night. If you do that now, he'll
tell you that he only serves people who dress like peasants. Damn. Instead, type
"give baby" and the old man will give you the PILLS (59/150).
They were meant for the baby but... you're a thief, that's all. You can't do
anything else at the inn at the moment so head back outside. Go west two screens
(on the second screen it doesn't look like you can go west but there's a little
spot that you can squeeze into) to arrive at the other side of the lake. You need
to type "throw baby" to toss the kid into the lake but you can't type it in
anywhere. It says to do it in the center, but that doesn't work. Stand to the
left and slightly north of the center and then type it. You'll head to the center
and throw it in. For some reason, the baby survives and swims back to shore with
a can of SODA (64/150). Now head to the screen with the well (I forgot the
directions but it's on your map). Here, walk to the right side and say "put baby
in bucket" to place the baby inside (67/150). Now say "use crank" and the baby
will come up with a MEATBALL SUB (69/150). Now go west two screens and south one
screen. This is the hut with no door.
If you look, you'll notice that there is a stone on the bottom of the right side
that looks a little smoother than the others. Walk up to the right side and type
"get stone" to remove the STONE (71/150) from the hut. Now type "use baby" and
the baby will crawl into the hole. As the baby moves, it'll knock the broom down
and hit the door, causing it to open. The baby will crawl out and go under the
fence... then disappear for good (76/150). Oh well. Anyway, head inside the hut
and walk over to the dresser. Say "open dresser" to find a peasant robe inside.
Type "get peasant robe" to collect the ROBE (86/150). Now type "close dresser" to
shut the dresser (87/150). Now type "put on robe" to slip the peasant robe on
(90/100).
You now smell like a peasant and you're dressed like a peasant. Only one more
thing left which is lighting yourself on fire. Strange, but required. Now go out
of the hut and go east all the way to the other side. Then head north one square
and enter the inn. Type "get a room" and the old man will allow you to spend the
night (93/150). You'll sleep for twenty minutes (the bed looks uncomfortable) and
find that night has fallen when you wake up. The man is gone and the cabinet has
opened. Go over to the cabinet and type "get pot." As you reach for the pot,
it'll fall on your head. Well at least you still have the POT (95/150). You can't
see anything so all of your controls will be screwed up. Up is right, right is
down, down is left and right is up.
So basically, the controls all shift over to the key on your left. With this in
mind, head back out of the inn where you'll take the pot off your head (98/150).
Now go south once and walk up to the lantern which is now lit. The horse grease
from the pot will cause your robe to catch on fire (108/150). You're now a true
peasant! Good for you! Head north two squares to be in the starting area with the
knight. Talk to the knight, who will comment on how you have become a real
peasant. He'll then let you pass to the trogdor's cave (115/150). Go up the hill
and into his lair (ignore the floppy disk thing and just press enter). Here, go
up to the cliff and type "scale cliff" which will allow you to grab on (the whole
thing is pretty much smooth so I have no idea how you can climb it).
Now climb up, avoiding the boulders and (if you take too long on one screen)
birds. There are three screens (including the first) that you have to climb up.
After that, you'll reach the top (118/150). You notice how in all games, before
the final showdown, a lighting storm is like on top of you (thunder and lighting
are at the same time)? Oh well. Anyway, go right into the Trogdor's cave. Go
right and you'll be stoped by a hooded figure. After he talks, say "give sub" and
you'll give him the meatball sub. He'll give you the TROG-SHIELD (123/150) as
thanks. Go right again to find another hooded figure. This one wants the soda so
type "give soda" to hand it to him. As thanks, you'll be rewarded the TROG-HELMET
(128/150).
The final hooded figure wants the pills. You know what to type. As thanks, you'll
get the final item, the TROG-SWORD (133/150). Yes, I know there's a ??? spot in
the items still but it's a glitch that should be for the map. Anyway, head into
the final room where the Trogdor is sleeping. QUICKLY type "throw sword" and
you'll throw the very cheap Trog-Sword into the very thick skin of the Trogdor
(140/150). The Trogdor will wake up and roar a very angry roar. Quickly type
"talk" and you'll enter a conversation with the Trogdor (150/150). Excellent, you
have all 150 points! After the conversation, the Trogdor will breathe fire and
kill you. There's no avoiding this, it's just the ending :)

My AIM: me frog 12345
PLEASE don't start whole conversations with me. Chances are, if I'm on, I'm
usually talking to somebody else, and I don't want to stop to have a
conversation
with somebody that I don't know. Just ask the question, you'll definitely get a
response, and then that's it.
Note that I don't know the answer to everything. If you ask a question that I'm
unsure about, I'll simply tell you that I don't know the answer and that'll be
the end of it. Kthnxbye.
Also, if you IM me asking something about the FAQ, I'll simply say, "Look in the
FAQ" and then won't say anything else. I really don't like having to stop other
conversations for a few moments to answer some question that's obviously already
typed.
If you don't get an answer in a minute, don't flip. I might be away for just a
couple of minutes, or I might be talking to a bunch of other people at once.
I'll usually answer within ten minutes of your question, so just keep the text
box open while you do something else and you'll get a response. If you have no
patience and keep posting, "What's the answer?" a dozen times, I simply won't
answer you. If it gets too far, I might even block you, though I rarely do that
to people who ask me questions.
Don't pop up later and start chatting with me. I personally don't like it when I
start to get into conversations where I don't know you. If it happens
constantly, I'll simply block you. Note that you don't have to worry about
warnings; I'll never warn someone, I'll just block him or her completely.
Well, that should be it then. Now on to e-mail...

E-mail contact rules

My e-mail address is cskull@frogdesign.com. There are a few things that
you can e-mail me about, and few things that you can't. First the
things that are okay.
Information on the game. No this does NOT mean full world guides,
because if it isn't there I haven't gotten to them yet but I will. It means
additional TIPS on beating a world or correcting information that I messed up.
Secrets are _TOTALLY_ accepted.
Praise mail. I used to be against this, but now I realize how rare praise really
is. Just don't send me things like, "Yer faq is kewl, lol!!!"
Suggestions for the FAQ. Something like, "Why don't you add such and
such in your FAQ. NOT "Why don't you totally re-do your FAQ because it
sucks!" That is just plain rude and annoying. If you don't like my
FAQ, tell me things to make it better!
The things that you CAN'T e-mail me about are...
Spam. This is the NUMBER 0NE thing that you must not send. I get at least twenty
spam e-mails a day and I don't need yours it doesn't help. Please don't send
any.
Asking permission to use this FAQ. No, you can't, so don't bother. Only four
sites, which I have listed at the top of the guide, can use this FAQ.
Hate mail. No I don't appreciate it if you send me an e-mail saying, "Your FAQ
is the biggest piece of **** ever created! It sucks!" That just
fills up my inbox and it really annoys me.
Spelling/Grammar mistakes. I used to get about ten e-mails a day
saying, "You spelled these two words wrong." or something like, "You
used inappropriate grammar in this chapter." Please people! I can find
those on my own!
And that wraps up the contact. Once again my e-mail is:
