     King's Quest III hints
 
1) First of all, do your chores and wait for Manannan to leave.
2) Secondly, get all stuff in his bedroom. Look in the closet, and 
 both drawers. The key is on top of the closet (wardrobe).
3) After that, get the cat and get the hair off it. Get the feather
from one of the chickens. Get everything from the kitchen.
4) In the attic, get the fly.
5) Leave the house. In Three Bears' House get the baby bear's
porridge. Upstairs get the thimble from the dresser drawer.
6) At the acorn tree, reach into the hole. Climb the ladder.
7) LOOK IN HOUSE to see if the bandit is sleeping. If not, leave the
screen and come back till he is asleep. Go in. Get money (from table)
If your stuff got ripped off, it's in the chest in the corner. Get all.
8) Go to the store (by the pier). Buy the Fish Oil, for now.
9) Use the map to teleport and save you time. Go back to the house
(With the fish oil). In Manannan's office, unlock cabinet. Stand
by the bookcase on the right. Move book. Pull lever. Go downstairs.
10) Get Mandrake Root Powder from shelf on back wall.
11) Check to see you have everything for the spell to turn someone
        into a cat. Cast the spell.
12) Manannan returns from his journey when the timer is at about 30:00
After you're done with the spell, put the cookie in the porridge.
13) Hide everything under your bed, upstairs in your room.
14) With everything under the bed, get porridge.
15) Just wait for Manannan to return. He will say he wants to eat.
16) Go into the kitchen, and put porridge on table. Manannan will eat
and then turn into a cat. You're free to do everything else, now.

General Tips
 
17) Show the mirror to medusa to kill her. Don't be facing the 
direction she comes on the screen.
18) Get the cactus on the screen with the big rock, in the desert.
19) Get the mud from the stream, on the waterfall board.
20) Turn into an eagle, fly up to the spider's web. You will
kill the spider. Then you can just walk in the cave.
21) Pet the dog in the store for the tuft of hair.
22) Get the acorns under the acorn tree. Keep trying, if you can't get
them right away. You'll eventually get them.
23) Everything else is pretty obvious, that you need for the spells.
24) In the text file that comes with the pirated version, a word
is spelled wrong in the spell for causing a deep sleep. It is
SOPORIFIC, not SPORIFIC. 
25) When you're done with all the spells, talk to the captain in the 
tavern. Give money. Go aboard ship.
26) In ship, go off the right of the screen. Get crate. Go back.
27) Drop crate. Near big one. Jump crate. Again. Go up the ladder.
28) Your stuff is in the chest at the foot of the captain's bed.
29) Go right from the screen with the captain's room. Get the shovel.
30) Now you can just kill time till you get to Daventry.
Look at your map every so often, to see how close you are.
31) Just jump overboard when you anchor in the bay. 
32) On the one screen you will see a pirate, and he will chase you.
33) Instead of coming on to the screen like this:
            ----------------     ---------------
     -              - ->  -             -
    -      x       -     -             -
    -              -     -     p       -
            ----------------     ---------------
With x being the board you're on, and p being the pirate, go north from
the x board, the go east, then go south. The pirate should be gone.
Walk about five paces from the palm tree. Dig. you'll get the treasure
although I've found no purpose for it.
34) Climb the mountain, and just follow the past. I like to have 
"RUB STONE" typed in, in case the Abominable Snowman comes. Just avoid
him, using the magic stone. Then just keep following the path.
35) After the pretty scenery, you'll fall down in front of a door
(Deja Vu from King's Quest I) and then go up the stairs.
36) On the board with the cave entrance, with clouds around you, use
the invisibility ointment, then go east.
37) Big Dragon!!!! Use the storm brew to kill him.
38) Untie girl. Go back down steps.
39) You can only go a couple of directions off the board. Just go 
around until you see the old gnome on his porch. He'll yell and be
happy to see you etc. etc.
40) Go north off of the Gnome's house board, and sit back and watch
the Finale!!!
