Battle with Acorn | Duel of Strength King's Quest Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
You reach back the location with the statue, follow the path by the trap and signs, but go up by the path to the picnic place. Before your eyes, you can see the arena, where you fight Acorn.
Approach the first horn and use Olfie's mouthpiece. As soon as you are over the bridge, go left for a moment and equip Pillare's mouthpiece next to the horn. Done. There, talk to the host to start the fight .
During the first minute, the opponent pushes you out of the arena. Unfortunately, tapping S takes no effect. Fortunately, thanks to the horns, the trolls quickly help you up to the arena.
Since the knight is not paying attention to you now, sneak up to him from behind and take the wool. By tapping the interaction key, you extend the string. At some point, the opponent realizes what you are up to and will try to free himself.
Try to operate the string in the way that allows you to spin it around the poles sticking out of the ground. Here, you cannot rely on simple connections - the string should form complex shapes. Thanks to good planning, the opponent should trip. As soon as he loses his balance, press the action key to knock him down, You need to do this twice. In the meantime, you will be pushed out of the arena again and you will have to use troll horns to summon your friends - first Waddles and then Olfie.
In the next sequence, you will have to make the knight charge straight into the poles around the arena. This has been presented on the video. As soon as you stand in front of them, press the interaction key, which provokes Acorn to charge towards you. After you do this 3 times the entire battle ends in a cutscene. For winning, you are rewarded with a Steam achievement: "Strong Minded".
