King's Quest Trivia

1. Without cheating, which two items can never be in your inventory at the same time?

From Quiz "King's Quest VI": Expert Quiz

Answer: Nail and Gauntlet

The Nail can only be obtained in the short path, using Beauty's slave clothes to enter the castle. The Gauntlet can only be obtained in the long path, in which Beauty's slave clothes must be destroyed on the Isle of the Mists. This is necessary in order to progress to the Realm of the Dead, where the Gauntlet is found. You can climb The Cliffs of Logic as soon as you land on the Isle of the Sacred Mountain. Both the Mint and the Tinder Box can be in your inventory at this time, and only the Tinder Box is required in order to obtain the Peppermint Leaf. In a typical play-through, Alexander trades his Ring for the Magic Map, then later trades the Pearl for his Ring. But you can also trade back the Magic Map to obtain the Pearl again, which would allow you to have both the Ring and the Pearl at the same time. Though you do use the Brick to advance through the Catacombs where the Skull is found, the Skull can be obtained in a previous room before the Brick is necessary to use.

Then Graham looks into the magic mirror and sees a woman imprisoned in a quartz tower. Graham finds this woman to be the most beautiful woman she's ever seen. He also sees that she is in trouble and sets out on a quest to save her. Apparently Daventry can live without its king for a while and has some kind of contingency plan in case Graham dies.

From Quiz King's Quest III

Answer: Manannan

Mordack was Manannan's brother and was introduced in the fifth game of the series. Lucreto was the villain in the eighth game. Shadrack was referred to in the sixth game but never actually appeared in the official "King's Quest" series. Many fans of the game were angered when they first bought this game. The first two games starred Graham who became king of Daventry in the first and then married the princess Valanice in the second. When this game started the player as a mere servant who had seemingly no relation to the royal family, many fans were disappointed and wrote letters to Sierra. It was not until a few months later, when players had had enough time to progress to the end of the game (there were no hint books or hint hot lines at the time), that Gwydion's relationship to the royal family was discovered.

From Quiz "King's Quest 5": Part 2

Answer: He gets captured by a wolf

For some reason Cedric flies low enough to allow a wolf to catch him. Graham will soon be in the same predicament that Cedric is in.

From Quiz King's Quest 5: Absence

Answer: Cedric

Ah, yes. Those of us who played the "King's Quest" games as a child remember Cedric all too well. Most of us wish we didn't. He is annoying, rarely helpful, and too timid to follow Graham into any place that might be even remotely dangerous. In addition, his warnings are either really obvious and/or they are too late. The game should allow Graham to stop what he's doing after Cedric warns him, but it doesn't. Roberta didn't perfect this sort of thing until "King's Quest 7." To be fair, most of his late warnings are things you shouldn't need to be warned about, but there are a couple things a new player would have no clue of that Cedric should be able to warn you about (but he only does when it's too late). However, without Cedric, Graham would have had no way of learning what happened to his castle or family. Even if he did, he would have no way of doing anything about it without Cedric's fairy dust to help him fly to Serenia. Lastly, Cedric provides vital help later on in the game. So even the biggest haters of Cedric should give him some credit for that.

From Quiz "King's Quest 3": Sierra and AGDI

Answer: "YMCA" - The Village People

If Alexander angers Manannan so that he punishes him, sometimes he will make him exercise. In the remake he does this to the tune of "YMCA". It is unclear if this song is actually playing in Manannan's house or if it's just background music for the game (the 4th wall).

From Quiz "King's Quest 4: The Perils of Rosella" - Part 1

Answer: Genesta

Genesta somehow learns of the situation in Daventry and speaks to Rosella through the magic mirror. Genesta tells Rosella of the magic fruit and then brings her to Tamir so she can find it. It is then revealed that Genesta did this not only for Rosella, but also for herself too. The evil fairy Lolotte has stolen Genesta's talisman. Without it, Genesta can't live very long. She needs someone brave enough to get it back from Lolotte. So by bringing Rosella to Tamir where the magic fruit is, Genesta gives her the chance to save her father AND now Genesta has a hero who can save. Everybody wins, if Rosella can do it. Erana is said to be based on Genesta, but that's a different series.

From Quiz King's Quest 2: Romancing

Answer: Kolyma

The magic mirror tells Graham that his dream woman is in Kolyma. So that's where he goes. In the remake by AGD Interactive, prime minister Gerwain sends Graham there by ship. Graham later learns that Gerwain isn't what he appeared to be. In any case, he obviously doesn't go to Daventry, is he is already there and this woman isn't. Llewdor is in "King's Quest 3" and Tamir is in "King's Quest 4."

From Quiz "King's Quest VII": Plot Questions

From Quiz "King's Quest VI": Part 1

Answer: Mordack

Mordack's name is only mentioned a couple of times in the game. The first is when Alexander is summarizing his previous experience with Cassima and his reason for coming to see her, and the second is when Alexander reads a letter from Alhazared's pal Shadrack, discussing the death of Mordack and the recommended way to the crown. Mannanan is the name of the wizard who kidnapped Alexander when Alexander was just a baby.
