King’s Quest 3: To Heir Is Human

This game, and the one listed as To Heir Is Human (Redux) are essentially the same, but they’re from different game companies. They’re both remakes (moderizing) of the original Sierra game of the same title. This one was the first, and was created by Infamous Adventures. The stories are the same but the telling is slightly different. Now on to this walkthrough.

Like the last 3 games, open the settings and increase all sliders.

Enter the house and Manannan will give you a chore — go do the chore.

Go to your room and hide all under the bed and take a nap.

After you awaken, Manannan will announce he’s going on a journey.

Go to Manannan’s room. Open the wardrobe and take the magic map. Touch the hand icon along the top edge of the wardrobe to get a brass key. Open the dresser along the right wall and take the reddish pink bottle of rose essence. Go to the vanity at the foot of Manannan’s bed and open the drawer to take his hand mirror.

Go downstairs to the study and use the brass key on the small cabinet along the left wall. Take the magic wand. Go to the bookcase along the top of the screen, on the bottom shelf click on the bottom right corner to open the trap door. Walk down through the trap door.

On the bookscase closest to the stairs, take everything you can. Look through the book on the table.

Walk back up and close the trap door. Catch the cat and pluck some fur. Leave the house and carefully walk down the path.

Walk down two screens to the cottage. You can only enter when the bears aren’t here. If they’re here, leave the screen and return. Entering the house, take the middle bowl of porridge from the table and leave. Return to Manannan’s house to the study, open the trap door and go down.

Flip the book to the Transforming Another Into A Cat spell, use the eye icon on it to read the spell. Leave the house and return to town by using the magic map and clicking the cottage. Go one screen left and one screen up to the acorn tree. Pick an acorn off the ground. Look at the hole in the base. Use the hand on the hole to pull the switch. Save! Climb the ladder. If the bandit is here, and isn’t asleep, quickly leave. Do this until he’s asleep, then take the purse and leave the treehouse.

Go to the docks and enter the general store. Pet the dog to get a tuft of fur. Buy everything and take a mint from the black bowl on the counter.

Return to the house and go to the kitchen. Take the food from the table at the right, the wooden spoon and knife hanging near the left and the bowl from the shelf on the left wall. In the dining room, take the metal cup.

Return to the magic room and cast the Transforming Another Into A Cat spell. In the inventory, use the cat cookie on the bowl of porridge taken from the three bears’ cottage. Leave the magic room and close the trap door. Lock the wand back in the cabinet. Go to your room and hide all but tainted porridge and wait for Manannan to return.

Go to the dining room and give the tainted porridge to Manannan. After he eats it, he will turn into a cat and no longer be a problem.

Go to your room and collect all from under your bed. Go to the attic and pick up the dead fly. Note: The game will automatically pluck the wings and discard the body, since all you need is the fly’s wings.

Leave the house and go right to the chicken coop. Feed the chickens, enter the coop and pick up a chicken to pluck a feather.

Use the magic map to go to the cottage. When the coast is clear, enter and go upstairs. Opened the drawer to the nightstand by the blue bed and take the thimble. Leave and use the thimble on the flowers in the garden.

Walk right and up to the small tree. Take the sprig of mistletoe hanging on the side.

Walk up two screens and see an eagle fly by, take the feather he drops.

Return to Manannan’s and go to the study. Unlock the cabinet and take the magic want, then open the trap door. Go to the magic room and read all of the other spells.

Cast the Deep Sleep and Flying Like An Eagle Or Fly spells.

Use the map to go to town and click on the acorn tree. Save Here! Go left one screen to then cactus and turn to face the right side of the screen (away from the cactus) Medusa should appear here, but it could be random. The moment you see her, open the settings and lower your game speed and open the inventory and grab the hand mirror. Use the mirror on her and when she turns to stone, you can increase your speed back to the max.

While here, use the knife on the cactus. Walk up two screens and take the dried snakeskin.

Walk right to the waterfall and up to the stream. Use the spoon on the mud.

Use the map to go to the docks. Climb down the ladder and walk up to the ocean. Use the metal cup on the ocean.

Walk left and up to the spider web cave and use the eagle feather on the rose essence to get rid of the spider. Enter the cave and talk to the oracle fully. Note: You will automatically get the amber stone.

Return to the magic room and cast Invisibility, Transporting At Random, Understanding The Languages Of Creatures & Storm Brew spells.

Go to town and enter the tavern. Give the purse to the captain. Leave the tavern and go right. Board the ship.

When gameplay reumes you’ll be in the cargo hold. Walk right and listen to the rats until they talk about treasure. You may have to leave (go left) and return until this happens, it’s sometimes random. Take the small spare box and go left.

Use the box on the crate that’s below the ladder and climb up.  The captain may or may not be in his quarters. Do not enter his quarters if he’s there. When the coast is clear, enter his quarters and go to the trunk on the left and take all of your belongings.

Walk right to the lifeboat and search the bottom to the a shovel. Climb to the main deck. Save Here!

Carefully go right. If the mate is here, quickly go back left and check back. Repeat this until the mate is gone and go to the edge of the boat. Here you have to wait awhile, so you might as well go get a snack. Eventually the mate will holler “Land Ho”

When this happens, jump into the water. Save here. There is a pesky shark you have to get past. Swim down and right to the island.

Walk right to the palm tree. You should be able to dig here for the treasure.

Go up and follow the path to the left then right.

Climb up the snowy maintains and walk past the cave.

When you see the yeti, use the eagle feather on the rose essence. Walk down/right to the caves (mountain face with six holes in it).

Climb down the mountain face to the hole at the center. Walk in that hole. Climb the mountain face to the right to be at the hole at the bottom center. Go in that hole to exit out the bottom right. Walk right to exit this screen.

Follow the path to a new cave. Enter and walk down/right and follow this path. Note: In King’s Quest 1: Quest For The Crown if you guessed the gnome’s name wrong and key gave you a key, this cave & path was how you got up to the giant’s land.

Upon exiting the cave, use the invisibility ointment on Alexander and walk left. Use the storm brew on the dragon. Use the hand icon to untie Rosella and watch the ending cutscenes!
