- Spoiler warning: Plot or ending details follow.
The following are the messages displayed while completing the minimal number of tasks to achieve a perfect score.

| Points | Command | Response | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | (intro) | YOU are Rather Dashing, a humble peasant living in the peasant kingdom of Peasantry. You return home from a vacation on Scalding Lake only to find that TROGDOR THE BURNINATOR has burninated your thatched roof cottage along with all your goods and services. With nothing left to lose, you swear to get revenge on the Wingaling Dragon in the name of burninated peasants everywhere. | 3B |
| 0 | (intro) | You head east towards the mountain atop which TROGDOR lives. | 3C |
| 0 | (intro) | That's a nice looking lake. | 3D |
| 0 | (intro) | You can start playing in a second here. | 2D |
| 0 | (intro) | Okay, go for it. | 2E |
| 1 | get pebbles | You grab up a handful of fairly substantial pebbles. You make sure to get an even mix of sedentary, igneous, and, um, sureptitious rocks. | 3C |
| 2 | put pebbles in bucket | You plunk all your pebbles into the bucket. The weight causes it to descend to the bottom of the well with a quickness! | 1C |
| 0 | turn crank | The crank seems to have loosened and you haul the bucket back up. What's this? Why there's a monster maskus in there! No doubt leftover from some pagan ritual. Silly pagans. You grab up the scary moster maskus. Man, this thing could scare a horse! | 1D |
| 2 | talk man | "Oh, hi. I'm Mendelev," says the archer. "I used to run a shooting range here with my brother Dongolev. But we don't talk so much anymore. I haven't seen him in a Jhonka's age. If you ever run into him, tell him I said 'haldo'. "You mean 'hello,'" you ask? "Oh, um. No. Shut up. I said 'haldo' and I meant 'haldo.' Tell him I said 'haldo.'" | 2D |
| 2 | wear mask | You slip on the hideous monster maskus. You scared the crap outta Poor Gary! He broke on through to the other side! | 1A |
| 3 | haldo | the archer stops arching and turns to you. "My brother told you to tell me haldo? He must want to start the old business back up!" | Hidden glen |
| 2 | get arrow | You pick out a really good one and yank it from the tree. Hooray! Now you have an arrow! | Hidden glen |
| 0 | open door | You open er up and head on in. | 4D |
| 1 | get chicken feed | You used to eat this stuff like crazy when you were a kid and your parents weren't watching (which was all too often). You grab several large handfuls. | Baby lady cottage |
| 0 | (on leaving baby lady cottage) | the baby lady calls after you, "Hey, you're on some quest right? Well, the little squirt here lost something of mine in the yard the other day. It's yours if you can find it." | Baby lady cottage |
| 0 | get berries (first bush) | You reach into the bush to snag some berries but they all just squish in your hand. | 4D |
| 0 | get berries (second bush) | Man, nothing in this bush but squished berries either. | 4D |
| 0 | get berries (third bush) | Too bad you don't want any squished berries, cuz hey: jackpot! | 4D |
| 2 | get berries (fourth bush) | You reach into the bush to snag you some berries but instead find a Super Trinket! These things are awesome! You have a sneaking suspicion that SOMEONE in this game will need this thing. | 4D |
| 2 | throw chicken feed | You toss the feed into the lake. You shed a tear for each one. "Goodbye, Monty" you sniff. "Bye Delga, Rasputin. Farewell, Combledon!" and so forth. Woah! That crotchety old man just caught a pantload of fish! "Now I can get back to running the inn," he says and rows to shore and hauls his boat out and cleans, guts, and filets all the fish and a buncha other stuff we didn't animate. | 3D |
| 2 | give super trinket | "That'll work," says Mendelev. Just hit 3 bullseyes and you win the SuperTime FunBow TM!" "The ARROW KEYS aim left and right and the SPACE BAR operates the bow. You'll need to press it a couple of times to get a nice shot off but we don't give lessons so you're on your own." | 2C |
| 3 | (get [X]=3-5 bullseyes) | "Nice shootin! [X] hits." Says Mendelev. "Here's your prize!" You got the SuperTime FunBow TM! We don't sell ammo, so you'll have to find your own arrows for it. | 2C |
| 5 | shoot Kerrek with bow | Here goes nothin', Kid Icarus ARROWED!! Nice shot. You smote the Kerrek! He lay there stinking. A light rain heralds the washing free of the Kerrek's grip on the land. You're feeling pretty good, though, so the artless symbolism doesn't bug you. | 1B or 4C |
| 10 | get belt | You strap the Kerrek's belt buckle around your waist. Oh boy. You sure stink now. | 1B or 4C |
| 2 | (walk into mud puddle) | Now you've done it! You're covered in sticky, albeit fine smelling, mud. Your "Scalding Lake" T-shirt is all soiled, too. You just washed it last harvest! | 2B |
| 3 | jump into hay | You've not known much better than a roll in the hay alone. You leap in the hay like a two years old boy. Uh oh. The hay sticks to your muddy body. You're a walking hay bale! Just like that one guy from that one show! | 2A |
| 0 | (walk to Jhonka's cave) | Hey, nice disguise! The Jhonka doesn't seem to notice you. | 3A |
| 7 | steal riches | Oh OH! A stiff breeze blew all the hay and, surprisingly, the mud off of you! "You take my riches?!" growls the Jhonka. | 3A |
| 0 | No | "Okay. Lemme know if you see riches anywhere," he grunts and goes back to his hopping. You smooth talker, you. | 3A |
| 0 | open door | You open er up and head on in. | 4D |
| 5 | give riches | "My riches!!" she screams and snatches up every last gold coin. "Thanks, sucker! Here you go!" she shoves the baby into your hands and bolts out the door. You later learn that she does this all the time and is wanted throughout the countryside. Those riches probably WERE the Jhonka's and who knows whose baby that is. Well, it's yours now. | Baby lady cottage |
| 0 | (on leaving baby lady cottage) | This place is dead anyway. | Baby lady cottage |
| 5 | throw baby | Something tells you this is a good idea and you lob the little one into the lake. You won't be arrested after all! The little guy has resurfaced safely, carrying an old bottle of soda. You take the soda and stow your swaddling buddy for takeoff. | 3C |
| 3 | put baby in bucket | Okay, Father of the Year. You put a baby in a bucket and it quickly descends deep into the well. Yours is a black, black heart. | 1C |
| 2 | turn crank | You haul the bucket back up. Lucky for you, the baby is still in it and appears to be unscathed. As a bonus, it looks like he found a Meatball sub down there. Score! You take the sub. Oh, and the baby. You take the baby. | 1C |
| 0 | open door | You open the door and step inside the inn. | 3E |
| 5 | give baby | "Well lookit that little guy!" says the Innkeeper. "You want a treat, do ya? What do babies like?" He fishes around in his pockets. "Um, how bout my medication!" You grab the bottle of pills before he can force them on the baby. "Hey, those were for him!" | inn |
| 2 | move rock | You slide the stone over to reveal a little hole. If only you could cut off your arms, legs, and head you might be able to squeeze through! | 4A |
| 5 | put baby into the hole | Deploying Q-Baby... Way to go, baby! It got the cottage door opened and headed off to a new life. He becomes Valedictorian of his graduating class, goes to Scalding Lake State, gets a degree in Advanced Peasantry and lands a job at Thatch-Pro: building better cottages for a better tomorrow. You grow apart and the letters from him become fewer and fewer. He develops a severe mead problem and blames you for never being there. | 4A |
| 0 | open drawer | There's a vintage peasant robe in there! Just like grampa used to wear. | Mysterious cottage |
| 10 | get robe | Yeah! Get that robe! | Mysterious cottage |
| 1 | close drawer | Aww, how thoughtful and boring of you. Break into this peasant's home, steal his clothes, but remember to tidy up after yourself. You're a real saint. | Mysterious cottage |
| 3 | wear robe | You slip into the vintage robe. It smells like grampa's lap. Now you're lookin like a serious peasant. | anywhere |
| 0 | open door | You open the door and step inside the inn. | 3E |
| 3 | get room | "Okay, youngster," says the decrepit old person. "Just bed on down for the night and I'm sure I'll remember to collect the fee come morning." Night falls like a bad power point presentation. What an uncomfortable bed! You sleep for maybe 20 minutes before the extreme pain in your spine forces you to get up. | Inside giant inn |
| 2 | get pot | You reach way up to the top shelf. Oh great! Now you can't see a thing and your head is covered in highly flammable horse grease. You better get out of here before that disgusting old man comes back. | Inside giant inn |
| 3 | (exiting inn with pot on head) | Phew! You discard the big black pot and wipe the horse grease from your eyes. The hood of your robe is still covered in highly flammable horse grease, though. | 3E |
| 10 | (walking under candle in burninated trees) | Whoa! The horse grease on your robe caught fire! You're a for-real peasant now. | 4E |
| 0 | (exiting 4E) | Man, screens sure get light fast around here. | 1E, 3E, or 4D |
| 7 | talk knight | Lookin good, Mr. Peasant. Good luck with ol' Beefy Arm up there. This is it! You can finally get revenge on Trogdor! Nice work so far, stupid! Please insert floppy disk 2 into Drive B and press enter. Disk read error. Please insert floppy disk 2 into Drive B and press enter. | 2E |
| 0 | climb | With a new determination you dig your fingers into the cliff face and begin to haul yourself up the mountain like you were in a sports drink commercial The mountain starts rumbling and big loose boulders start tumblin down. You'd best avoid thems. | Cliff base |
| 3 | (successfully climbing the cliff without dying) | Nice jorb climbing the cliff. You have a real way with those arrow keys. | Cliffland heights |
| 0 | (approached by first keeper) | Foolish peasant! How dare you enter this fairly sacred chamber! You explain that you're here to smote Trogdor and if he doesn't get outta your way, him too! You cannot vanquish Trogdor! Only the Three Keepers of Trogdor hold the tools with which to destroy the Burninator. The Trog-Shield, the Trog-Helmet, and the Trog-Sword. And the only way we'll give them up is if you answer the three Trog-Trivia questions correctly. Unless you happen to have something to eat on ya. Then we could forego my question. | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| 5 | give sandwich | No way! I was just kidding but you've really got a meatball sub. This rules! Here, you can have the Trog-Shield. | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| 0 | (approached by second keeper) | Hold, peasant! You must answer the second dreaded Trog-Trivia question! Or we could call it even if I had an ice cold drink right now. | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| 5 | give soda | Sweet deal, peasant. I underestimated you. Wear this Trog-Helmet with style. | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| 0 | (approached by third keeper) | Think you're pretty hot stuff, eh? Let's see you answer the deadly and pretty impossible THIRD TROG-TRIVIA QUESTION! That is, unless you've got something for my lower back. Man, it's killin me! | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| 5 | give pills | Whoa! Where'd you find this stuff? I don't think this is even legal anymore. These babies'll definitely smote LUMBAGO the, um, LOWER BACKINATOR!! The fabled Trog-Sword is yours. You now have the means to strike down Trogdor. Good luck, peasant. | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| 0 | (enter Trogdor's cave) | the beaded curtain slams shut behind you. There's no turning back now. | Trogdor's posh lair |
| 7 | throw sword | This is it! You hurl the Trog-Sword with all your might at the sleeping Burninator. Now you've done it! Trogdor's awake and the Trog-Sword doesn't seem to be doing a whole lot. Your legs lock in fear, your eyes glaze over and you wish for some Depeasant adult undergarments. But you think you hear Trogdor whimpering! Aw crap, that's you whimpering. At least your voice still works, I guess. | Trogdor's posh lair |
| 10 | talk trogdor | You scream that your name is Rather Dashing and that Trogdor burninated your cottage and you're here for revenge! "Sup, mortal," booms Trogdor. "I really appreciate you making the effort to come all the way up here and vanquish me and all. But, I'm kinda indestructible." "Yeah, I can't be killed. I'm surprised nobody mentioned that to you. I'll admit though, you've gotten farther than anybody else ever has. I bet they'll make a statue or something in honor of you somewheres." "I can honestly say it'll be a pleasure and an honor to burninate you, Rather Dashing." Aw that sure was nice of him! Congratulations! You've won! No one can kill Trogdor but you came closer than anybody ever! Way to go! | Trogdor's posh lair |

[edit] The Three Keepers' Messages
There are several messages that the game may return while Rather Dashing is answering questions of the Keepers of Trogdor. The simplest way to complete this part of the game is to bribe the Keepers; the messages returned in this case are listed above. If Rather Dashing has not acquired the three items necessary to bribe the Keepers, however, he must answer a question from each of them. The messages returned while answering their questions are listed here.
After each Keeper's introductory message, at the command "take the quiz", the game responds: You shake off the Keeper of Trogdor's request. Seriously - this guy should get a job.
[edit] The First Keeper
[edit] Introductory Message
How dare you enter this fairly sacred chamber!
You explain that you're here to smote Trogdor and if he doesn't get outta your way, him too!
You cannot vanquish Trogdor! Only the Three Keepers of Trogdor hold the tools with which to destroy the Burninator. The Trog-Shield, the Trog-Helmet, and the Trog-Sword.
And the only way we'll give them up is if you answer the three Trog-Trivia questions correctly.

"Sorry peasant! You fail! And as punishment, you will be turned into...RON CUMBERDALE!!"
You ask who the crap Ron Cumberdale is.
"Just this kid from 4th grade that I really hated. But he was a BIG LOSER and HE SMELLED!"
Well, you not exactly dead. But there's no way you could defeat Trogdor as Ron Cumberdale. Your quest ends here. Thanks for playing.

Well, you not exactly dead. But you certainly can't face Trogdor after writing 'Wheat Grows Sweet, But My Gal's Sweeter'. Your quest ends here. Thanks for playing.

You just stare at the Keeper blankly.
"Okay fine! You can have the dumb thing anyways. Trogdor's through the beaded curtain over there."
The fabled Trog-Sword is yours. You now have the means to strike down Trogdor. Good luck, peasant.
[edit] Response to Incorrect Answer
YES! I was hoping you'd get mine wrong. No Trog-Sword for you. In fact, no skin for you either!
Wow. You sure dead. You had a good run, though. Thanks for playin.
Note: if you fail to provide "A", "B", or "C" as an answer to any of the above questions, the Keeper will ask the question again, replacing the first sentence with the following one: Peasant fool! Choose A, B, or C!

[edit] Constructive Conversations
There are some helpful residents of Peasantry who will provide you with tips about how to proceed in the game. While these conversations are not necessary for completion of the game, many are important to the game's storyline.
| Character | Command | Response | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Blue Knight | talk knight (at beginning of game) | You explain your situation to the knight. That Trogdor burninated your cottage and you've sworn revenge. You ask for passage up the mountain to settle your score. (Press RETURN to advance through conversations) "Hang on there, Trogdorkilla," says the knight. "I can only allow actual peasants up the mountain pass to face Trogdor. And you CLEARLY are not one." "Look, Dragonheart..." "You don't STINK like a peasant." "You don't DRESS like a peasant." "And you're definitely not ON FIRE like a peasant." "Once you're those 3 things, come back and maybe we can talk." "Be sure to LOOK around lots. Talk to everyone you see and ASK ABOUT stuff. Type HELP if you get confused and INVENTORY to see your worldly stuff. Type SAVE or LOAD to save or load your game. Duh." | 2E |
| The Blue Knight | talk knight (after acquiring Kerrek's belt) | "Frankly, Matthew Broderick, you sure stink like a peasant. But you still don't DRESS like a peasant and you're not ON FIRE like a peasant." | 2E |
| The Blue Knight | talk knight (after acquiring Naked Ned's robe, whether or not you're on fire) | "My dear Adso, you are dressed well but you don't STINK and you're not ON FIRE. Let us instead exercise our brains and try to solve this tantalizing conundrum." | 2E |
| The Blue Knight | talk knight (after acquiring Kerrek's belt and Naked Ned's robe) | "Almost there, Dirk the Daring. You stink like a peasant and you dress like one too. But you're clearly still not ON FIRE." | 2E |
| The Baby Lady | talk lady | "Hello, I'm-" you start but the lady cuts you off "Okay, here's why I let you in here," she explains. "My husband got squished by Trogdor. And to make matters worse, the insurance riches I got were stolen by Jhonka. Go steal them back for us and I'll give you something great." | Baby lady cottage |
| Old Man | talk man (before throwing chicken feed in lake) | You holler at the old man about Trogdor, but he just grumbles about the fish not biting. "Must be using the wrong bait..." he says, suggestively. | 3D |
| Old Man | talk man (after throwing chicken feed in lake) | "If you're interested in staying the night, just type 'get a room.'" | Inside giant inn |
| Old Man | get a room (without robe) | "I only serve peasants here, fancypants!" barks the old guy. "Where's your robe?" | Inside giant inn |
[edit] Useful Documents
There are a few notes and documents lying around Peasantry that help Rather Dashing on his quest.
| Item | Command | Response | Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Map | get map | You tuck it nice-like into your short, short pants. Type MAP at nearly any time to check the map. | 3B |
| Note on Old Man's door | read note (before throwing chicken feed in lake) | It says, "Gone Fishin" just like that grog coozie your cousin got you. | 3E |
| Note on Jhonka's door | read note (before killing Kerrek) | It says "scared of kerrek. go way. -j" | 3A |
[edit] Helpful Hints
At times when you stray from the correct path in the game, the computer will respond with suggestions to help keep you on the right track.
| Action | Response | Location |
|---|---|---|
| After jumping in the haystack, go from 2A to any screen except 3A | Drat. The winds are heavy on all but a couple of key screens... looks like you're no longer in stealth mode. | 1A or 2B |
| Type any command other than "yes" or "no" after the Jhonka asks if you stole the riches | Just answer him, yes or no, you fool! | 3A |
| Type any command while the pot of horse grease is on your head | You need to get out of there before that smelly octogenarian gets back. | Inside giant inn |
| Type any command other than "take the quiz" or "give (requested item)" after being approached by a Keeper | I think he wants something from your inventory. Or you could just tell him "take the quiz" | Trogdor's outer sanctum |
| Type any command other than "Talk" or "Talk Trogdor" after Trogdor wakes up | Trogdor is awake and a couple seconds from a Rather Dashing BBQ. Might as well say your peace with him. | Trogdor's Posh Lair |
[edit] Unproductive Responses
There are many messages that the game gives you when you input commands that are not essential to the game's storyline. Here is a list of all that have been found. When more than one option is given, such as "get/take _____", either word will produce the same response.
| Contents |

[edit] #
[edit] A
- Ask about _____:
- Baby:
- (to Baby Lady) — "This little guy's all I got left. If only someone would steal back all our riches from that filthy Jhonka."
- Fire:
- (to knight) — "Well, whenever I see peasants, they tend to be on fire. So get yourself on fire. I hear horse grease gives a nice, controlled burn."
- (to baby lady) — "You need fire? A couple of trees over by the waterfall used to be on fire. But now there's like a signal lantern over there or something." / "So should I ask that signal lantern?" you ask. / "I dunno man! Whattaya want from me?"
- (to Mendelev and Dongolev*) — "Trogdor just burned down some idiot peasant's cottage. You should ask him," says Mendelev. / "Yeah, this jerk goes on vacation to some prancey lake and..." / They see you staring daggers at them and turn bright red. / "Oh. Nevermind," says Dongolev. "Um, yeah. What's a fire?" adds Mendelwhatever.
- (to Jhonka) — "Burninator make fire! Barbecue all peasants!"
- (to innkeeper) — "I've always preferred being on fire at night. Looks prettier and keeps the butterflies away."
- Jhonka:
- (to knight) — "Since the Kerrek showed up, we don't see the Jhonka so much anymore. He lives in that little cave over in west Peasantry."
- (to Baby Lady) — "That nasty thing killed my husband and took my riches!!" / "I thought Trogdor killed your husband," you interject. / "Oh right. Yeah. That's what I said. Trogband killed my husbdor."
- (to Jhonka) — "The Kerrek is dead!" he cries and hops around some more. You wonder how someone this primitive could have made that much dough.
- Kerrek:
- (to knight) — "I call him Big Stinky. He's slow and stupid, but he'll pound you into milks meat without a second thought."
- Naked Ned:

- (to Mendelev and Dongolev*) — "That guy creeps us out. In fact, shut up about him."
- (to Jhonka) — "Filthy naked peasant! Stay away from my cave-hole!" Who's he calling naked? HE'S the one wearing the string bikini.
- (to innkeeper) — "He used to be such a nice, clothed young man. Wonder what he's done with all his old clothes?"
- robe:
- (to knight) — "Peasants wear those brown robes. You know, with the rope around the waist. Get yourself one of those."
- (to baby lady) — "You can't have mine, pervert! I'm not a nudist peasant like that weirdo over in west Peasantry!"
- (to Mendelev and Dongolev*) — "We wouldn't know. We only wear archer clothes. You just can't arch real well in a robe, y'know?"
- (to Jhonka) — see Naked Ned
- (to innkeeper) — "I wear my robe hood-down so it's easier to trim my ear-hairs. If you need a robe, maybe try someone that's not using theirs."
- smell:
- (to knight) — "I never met a peasant that didn't stink. If you wanna smell bad, get the Kerrek involved. That thing reeks!"
- (to baby lady) — "What smells is junior here's drawers! I gotta quit feeding him so much horse!" / "And don't start asking me for his diapers, sicko!"
- (to Mendelev and Dongolev*) — "That giant pig running around sure smells bad. Maybe talk to him."
- (to Jhonka) — "Kerrek smell! Now Kerrek dead!" screeches the Jhonka. So you can infer from this that all smells are dead? You always sucked at the analytical questions.
- (to innkeeper) — "Well, if you don't stink, maybe find something that does and wear it. Like a dead carcass or summat."
- trogdor:
- (to knight) — "If I had a gold coin for every whining peasant's cottage that freaking dragon burninated, I'd be rich as a jhonka."
- (to baby lady) — "I hope you kill that stupid dragon. My 'Wives of Squished Peasants' support group would bake you a Poor Gary pie if you did."
- (to Mendelev and Dongolev*) — "Oh man, there was this one time when I came THIS close to having Trogdor ARROWED!" says Dongolev. / "Hey, shut up! That was me!" interrupts Mendelev, "YOU almost arrowed that blue baby!" says Dongolev. / "Did not!" / "Did so!" / "Did not!" / (You see where this is going.)
- (to Jhonka) — "All hail Burninator! Trogdor Number One! Beat Peasant Tech!" says the grimy Jhonka.
- (to innkeeper) — "Are you talking about that young green boy that lives up the street? He's always tearing my roof off and eating my customers."
- anything else:
- (to knight) — "I don't know anything about that, short pants."
- (to baby lady) — "I dunno what you're talking about."
- (to Mendelev and Dongolev*) — "Either we don't know anything about that, or you're real boring."
- (to Jhonka) — "Jhonka don't know nothing bout that!"
- (to innkeeper) — "I don't know nothing about no whatever you just said."
- (anywhere else) — "Ask about what?"

Hey, my mom's making peasant-kabobs for dinner TOO! Right. Anyway. You dead. Thanks for playing, and try not to die. (Warning: As you can see, this kills you.)

- mask (while the bucket is in the well) — You grab up the scary moster maskus. Man, this thing could scare a horse! (Warning: This gains two points, but you don't actually collect the mask, and this makes it impossible to obtain the mask, thus rendering it impossible to progress in the game.)

- plaque (at the signal lantern) — You have enough of that on your browning, rotten peasant teeth already.

- (while he's decomposing) — He dead. You didn't think he could have smelled any worse? Well, guess what: He smells worse.

- knight/man/dude/guy (at the mountain pass) — He looks way cooler than you.
- lady/woman
- (inside the woman's cottage, while she's still there) — Typical pasty peasant woman, overbearing and judgemental. Obsessed with goods and land.

- lake (at the fisherman's lake) — Why it's half a lake.
- lake/water (at the lake with pebbles) — It extends onto the next screen and has a sandy shore.
- lantern
- (while unlit; at the burninated trees) — It's unlit at the moment. That fancy pants royal knight probably lights it on nights when Troggie's on the prowl.
- (while lit; at the burninated trees) — It's lit! Musta been a Trogdor sighting tonight.
- lightning (at the top of the cliff) — Scary. Like Auntie Gerelda's crow's feet.
- man (in the inn) — He's an older peasant with big cotton swabs stuffed up his nose. Oh wait. Those are nose hairs. Grody.
- man/guy/peasant/old guy/old man (at the fisherman's lake while he is fishing) — An older peasant sits silently in a boat with his line in the water.
- ned (at the wavy tree, when Naked Ned is peeking out) — A fairly naked man is peering out from behind that tree.

- paper
- (in the inn) — It says, 'Note to self: Wave arms wildly!'
- (at your burninated cottage) — Hey, it's your old fireproof map to Peasantry.

- (in the woman's cottage) — Swedish foam. Your favorite.
- pot (in the inn after getting a room) — It's full of horse grease. I guess that sounds useful.
- rock
- (by the stream) — The ages have worn this rock down. It is a rock of ages. Still a-rollin.
- (at the mud patch) — That rock's not doin' a whole lot for me.

- (at Naked Ned's cottage after removing it) — Some jerk removed a loose stone from the back of the cottage.
- rug (in the inn) — Maybe that used to be a magic carpet. But it's sure a cat pee-stained carpet now.
- sand
- (at the fisherman's lake) — One million three hundred thousand seventy-four hundred and sixty two... One million three hundred thousand seventy-four hundred and sixty three... Drat! You lost count again.
- (at the west side of the lake after getting the pebbles) — Remember those pebbles on the beach? Man, those were good times.
- shelf (inside the woman's cottage) — Nothing but a bag of chicken feed.
- sign
- (at the mountain pass) — What that sign there? That sign says 'Trogdor.'
- (outside the inn) — If you can't read that sign, you need to quit playing this game.
- stump
- (at the burninated trees) — NOT a good place to sit.
- (at Poor Gary's glen) — You run out of ideas as to what to do next, and stare at the stump.
- target (at the archery range) — Hey, they had those same targets at Peasant Scout Camp!
- tree
- (at the burninated trees) — Severely burninated. They could probably use some salve.
- (at the hay bale) — It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown!
- (at the hidden glen) — Dude, and then the elf, like, totally climbed up it. It was awesome!
- (at the waterfall) — You see some trees in the distance. You hold your fingers up to one eye and pretend to squash it.
- (at the wavy tree) — It's weird and wavy.
- (at the well) — That's one orange tree alright.
- (at the yellow tree) — You're really hurtin' for puzzle solutions, huh?
- trees (anywhere) — You are an incredibly boring person.
- trogdor
- (in Trogdor's lair, while he's asleep) — Holy crap! Trogdor's way bigger in person than he looks in most tapestries you've seen. All of the sudden, losing your cottage doesn't seem so bad anymore.
- (in Trogdor's lair, when he's awake) — Trogdor is looming menacingly over you with a tiny wee sword stuck in his belly. He looks like he's gonna kill you really soon.
- (at mountain pass) — I know it's labeled 'Trogdor,' but it's really just a sign, silly. I mean, attack it if you want...
- water (by the stream) — Got a rock in it.
- waterfall (at the waterfall) — Upon closer inspection, you discover it's not magical. That's just mist, not magic sparkles or anything.
- well (at the well) — Pretty average. You're not a big well person. You're more into bridges. It does have a cute little bucket though. Your dad liked buckets. Oh, and there's a metal crank too. Meemaw loved cranks.

[edit] N
[edit] O
- open _____
- door
- (at the Jhonka's cave while he's inside) — It's locked. With one o' them SCHLAGE deadbolts, too. Those things are hard core.
- (at Naked Ned's cottage) — How? There's no knob.
- (at Naked Ned's cottage, after the baby opens it) — It's already open. Since this is an adventure game we're gonna proffer you adventure yourself on in there.
- (at the inn, while it's closed) — It's locked fast!
- (inside the inn, before getting a room) — 'That's the pantry,' says the Innkeeper. 'Employees only.'
- drawer
- (in Naked Ned's cottage when it's open) — Yeah, totally! Except it's already open you moron.
- (in Naked Ned's cottage after getting the robe and closing the drawer) — You already closed it, which was nice, and so we gave you some points. Let sleeping drawers lie.
- door
[edit] P
- party (anywhere) — You are part of the Whig party. They are making gangrene-awareness their number one campaign priority.

- baby in bucket
- (too far from bucket) — You're not that keen a shot. Try standing a little closer.
- (after getting the sub) — Li'l tyke seems to enjoy the ride, but — thin or not — we've got a plot to advance here.
- (anything else) in bucket — That's not heavy enough to weigh down the bucket.
- baby in well
- (at the well with the baby) — Jeez man! At least put the poor little guy in the bucket! Give him a fighting chance!
- pebbles — Where you wanna toss em?
- pebbles/rocks in bucket
- (at the well, when you don't have them) — Find some pebbles first and you might have the makings of a good idea. About time.
- (after getting the maskus) — We've already been through this exercise and it went pretty well, ya?
- pebbles/rocks in well
- (at the well, when you have them) — Then it'd be tough to get them back. You never go ANYWHERE without your rocks
- (at the well, when you don't have them or after you've gotten the maskus) — Riiight, right. Which ones?
- pwd — ~peasantsquest/{location}
[edit] Q
- quit — Well fine Boring Sanders! Hope you saved your game cause it is OVER between us! (Warning: The game actually does quit.)

- ride horse/poor gary (at Poor Gary's glen, before scaring him) — Naw, snapping horse spines just doesn't seem as cool as it did in high school.
- ring bell (in the inn) — Instead of ringing or dinging, it just goes DUNG.
[edit] S
- search bush
- (the same bush twice outside the woman's cottage) — You already searched that bush. It was okay. Nothing to write home about... oh, wait... you don't have a home. My b.
- (after you've gotten the trinket, outside the woman's cottage) — You've searched your fill of berry bushes for this game. If you want to search more press 'reload' on the browser
- save (in the Kerrek's domain while he's still alive) — You can't be fumbling with a floppy while the Kerrek is bearing down on you.
- scare horse (at Poor Gary's glen, before getting the mask) — You tell Gary the THE CALLS ARE COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE!! one but he doesn't act very scared. He's probably heard it before. or: You tell Gary about how much cholesterol is in hay and how his arteries are probably all black and clogged. He shrugs it off. or: You tell Gary the story about the kid who pops this big zit he has and all these baby spiders come out. It doesn't phase him.
- sit on stump (at Poor Gary's glen) — Are you THAT bored?! Do some questing already!
- skip stones (at the west side of the lake) — You've always been terrible at skipping stones. And you're even worse at just plain throwing rocks in lakes. You decide to save yourself the embarrassment.
- slay trogdor (while Trogdor's asleep, in his lair) — Like how?
- sleep _____ (can be followed by anything or nothing) (inside the woman's cottage) — That's probably how the first baby got here. Forget it.

- smell/sniff (anywhere) — Smells like a computer game.
- swim
- (at the rock in the river) — Peasants can't swim. Like, it's illegal.
- (at the waterfall) — That waterfall would probably churn you into one of those weight-gain protein smoothies.

- (at wavy tree, with Naked Ned visible)- You startled him and he disappears!
- talk ____
- (someone not in the screen, inanimate, or nonexistent; anywhere) — It's sad when you have to make up people to talk to.
- baby (inside the woman's cottage, before you get the baby) — You say some cute, stupid stuff and the baby just blows snot bubbles.
- gary (at Poor Gary's glen when he's there) — Your attempts at conversation are met with horse grunts and tail flaps. Which is better than you do at conversation with most people.
- jhonka (while inside the hay) — Not now! You'll blow your cover!
- kerrek (in the Kerrek's domain while he is alive) — 'Me llamo Julio,' you begin... It seems only to further anger the already tempramental Kerrek. That stupid 'Learn Kerrek in 3 Weeks' cassette did nothing for you!
- lady (inside the woman's cottage after she's gone) — You'd call out her name and let it ring through the empty room, enveloping you in sorrow, but you don't actually know her name.
- Naked Ned (at the wavy tree, with Naked Ned visible)- 'Never speak of this meeting!' says the nudie and he disapperars.
- tree (at the wavy tree) — Trees can't talk but a breeze picks up and you swear the leaves whisper the words 'Naked Ned.' Weird.
- trogdor (in Trogdor's lair while he's asleep) — You yell some choice expletives at Trogdor but he doesn't wake up. There's a cool echo, though.
- well (At the well) You yell into the well and enjoy the echo. Keep in mind there are no stereos yet.
- this sucks (anywhere) — Come now. Don't get discouraged.
- throw _____
- (anything but the feed; at the fisherman's lake while he is fishing) — 'That isn't gonna work for bait!' the old man screams, at a needlessly harsh volume.
- (feed or baby; at south side of lake, either side) — Maybe try again from the center of the lake. Looks deeper there.
- (anything; when the fisherman is gone) — You already fed the fish. Let's get moving, here, people!
- baby
- (anywhere but the west side of the lake) — Hmmm. Maybe try someplace else.
- (at the well) — Throw it where?
- (at the west side of the lake before getting the baby) — I think you misread the walkthrough on GameFAQs. You gotta get the baby first.
- (at the west side of the lake after getting the soda) — Baby Dashing is a little waterlogged from the toss, and you read his soft gurgling to mean that there's no more soda left.
- (anywhere without the baby) — You don't even have two babies to rub together.
- feed
- (at the east side of the lake before getting the feed) — You have nothing with which to do that...with.
- (at the east side of the lake after throwing the feed) — You already fed the fish. Let's get moving here, people!You already fed the fish. Let's get moving here, people! (The repetition is probably just a goof.)
- try (at Naked Ned's cottage) — Okay, fine. You try to cut off your hard-earned extremities. It doesn't work. You dead. Thanks for nothing. (Warning: You die.)
- turn crank
- (at the well, before getting the pebbles, on the other side of the screen) — You can't reach from there.
- (at the well, before getting the pebbles) — It won't budge. Maybe if there was something heavy in that bucket...
- (at the well, after you get the maskus, on the other side of the screen) — You got a short reach to match your short pants. Try standing closer to that crank.
- (at the well, after you get the maskus) — {first time} Down she goes! You could do this all day! {second time} The drama grips you, but the bucket is empty. On the bright side, you're getting a pretty sweet workout for your Deltoidus Rex muscles.
[edit] U
- use pebbles (at the well) — What do you propose to do with them? Discuss.
[edit] V
[edit] W
- wake up trogdor — 'Troggie...', you murmur. 'Troggie, wake up it's time for Burnination school.' He's not budging.
- wear _____
- belt (after getting the belt) — You're already wearing it. Too bad you smell like the trash barge off Peasant Isle.
- mask
- (anywhere but Poor Gary's glen) — Not on this screen. You've got your image to think about. Actually, you might want to start deliberating on that right now.
- (in Poor Gary's glen after scaring him) — Gary's gone now. Let go. Just let go./Let go!
- robe
- (if the robe is not in your inventory) — You don't have anything but your 'Scalding Lake' t-shirt. And pants. Forgot to mention the pants.

[edit] Z
[edit] Action Based
Warning: All of the below will kill you.
- (Walk too close to the Kerrek) — {The Kerrek pounds your head into the ground} Your mom always told you not to take head poundings from strange Kerreks. And NOW looks what's happened. You dead. Thanks for playing.
- (Walk in the path of Dongolev's arrows) — Hopefully this guy will have some sense and not shoot you. {Dongolev shoots you in the head} That guy has no sense. He shot you. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Nice one, William Tell. You dead. Thanks for playing.
- (Leave the screen after putting the baby in the bucket) — Nice try. Ditch the baby at the bottom of the well, eh? Thought you'd be able to just walk away and it's nothing by mead and wenches from now on, huh? Well guess what? You dead. Thanks for playing.
- (Hit by rock or pterodactyl when climbing the cliff) — {You fall to the ground and lie in a heap} Oops! You climbed real bad. You knew that you were AVOIDING the rocks, right? Not collecting them. Anyways, nice try. You dead. Thanks for playing.
- (Walk too close to Trogdor while he's asleep) — {Trogdor burninates you without waking up} Yow. Looks like you got a little too close. You dead. Maybe next time don't get too close.
