Cheats & Guides

The Black Cauldron Cheats For PC

  1. Exceed maximum score

    When required to give a musical instrument to the king of the fair folk (and having to choose between the Harp and the Lute), if you're quick enough you can squeeze in giving them both before the plot continues, getting 10 points for each. This way, it's possible to end up with 240 out of 230 points at the end of the game.

  2. Walk on Water

    After successfully climbing the rope across the mountain, press the F6 key to grasp the rope once again. Press the END key and Taran will simultaneously fall off the rope and land on the cliff at the same time. This will cause Taran's feet to move continuously while standing still. You can now walk across any body of water. This will allow you to cross the Morva Marsh, the rapid river, and the alligator lake without dying.

  3. King's Quest 3: To Heir Is Human

    Walk Taran repeatedly into the eastern wall of the room where Fflewddur appears. He will discover a crack in the wall and peek through, seeing someone playing "King's Quest 3: To Heir Is Human" on the other side.
