The board game | Championship Duel of Wits King's Quest Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
It is the time for the final duel! Interact with your opponent to start the game. After a while, the guard puts three chalices on the table. Regardless of which one you pick, you will be stunned with a special liquid and you lose the game within several turns.
Thanks to the guards, you can start the game over. Before you do, though, approach the table with the three chalices on and use the color-changing potion on them. Thanks to this, you will be able to figure out, which beverage the dangerous substance is in.
All in all, the aim of the game is to hit the opponent' piece with an arrow from the bow. For this to happen, you need to arrange the knights with shields in the way that allows for that, during one of your turns. This is quite challenging, but you an give it another try, if you fail. It is very easy to lose, while performing an attack that requires two harmonized moves. If you take one step, your opponent immediately and eliminates you from further game. The best tactic is to play a defensive game, combined with cornering the opponent. The entire game has been presented on the video. Winning immediately activates a cutscene.
Manny is not a good loser and he wants to fight you. In exchange for the last gold con, you can take one of the items offered you by the citizens. It does not really matter which one you take. What matters is tapping the appropriate direction keys during the sequence. Congratulations. Graham wins the tournament. This is the end of the first episode of King's Quest.
