How to Cheat:
Hold L and R and enter these cheats in game:
Right, Left, Right, Left, Up, Down, Up, Down - God mode
Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right - Damage times 100
Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Down, Up, Down - Enemy attacks pass through Bard
Left, Left, Right, Right, Up, Down, Up, Down - Full health and mana
Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right - Silver pieces and Adderstones
Hints: Easy money:
Early in the game [without cheating], go talk to the barrel maker that is inside one of the Broch's.
This is the Broch that is near the middle of the town, but at the west end; his door is facing north
[if you were to be facing his door, you would be facing east]. The name of the place at the bottom
of the screen when you walk in will read 'Boyd's Barrels', at the west side of Houton. After you
talk to him, go back outside. Go to the right side of his Broch and start destroying the barrels
next to his dwelling [that are under the awning]. He will come out and talk to you. Provide him nice
responses. He will give you the 'Barrel Maker - Break lots of Barrels' quest. After that, every
time you see a barrel, make sure you do whatever it takes to break it into tiny pieces. Then, go into
The Drunken Rat bar and smash all the barrels on the upper floor. This is the floor you are on
when you first walk in the front door. There are eight barrels that you can smash with your fists
or a sword, and three behind the three singing drunks that you cannot destroy until you have bought
a bow at the store. This makes a total of eleven barrels. Then, go down the stairs in the back room of the
bar. You will find eleven more barrels to smash. After all those barrels have been smashed, go out the
front door of the bar. Then, go back in and smash them all over again. After smashing a large number
of barrels [over 100] go to the man who gave you the quest. He is standing next to the awning
where you broke his barrels. He will give you 500 Silver. By doing this, it, you can make as much
money as desired early in the game. Note: Try buying the Longbow to shoot the three barrels behind
the singing drunks.
Hints: The Highlander reference:
Talk to the crier in The Tup Pub in West Dounby and agree to be in the talent show. You will get the
Boots of 'Quickening' as a reward. Read about these boots in the menu to learn that they were made
for the Highland warrior Connor McLaihd. This is a reference to Connor McCloud from the Highlander
movies. Also, all the other quickening boots have been lost, and the narrator says there surely
can be only 'one' pair left.
Hints: Cow tipping:
While in Huton [the first level], you can go around and find cows. Walk up next to the cow and hit
X. The Bard will push the cow over, and as soon as you walk off screen the cow will be set up again.
Hints: Star Wars reference:
If you choose to be snarky to the elder after defeating Silkbeard, he will say 'May the queen of the
Sith take you.'
Hints: Bonuses:
Donate 100 silver to the priests, both in towns and in the wild to unlock various bonuses, such as movies,
artwork, and songs.
Use the following trick to unlock the bonuses easily. After getting at least 2,000 silver, save the game.
Find a priest and make a 100 silver donation. Keep donating 100 silver until all your silver
is gone. Then, pause game play and select the 'Exit To Main Menu' option without saving your game.
Answer 'Yes' when warned that your unsaved chapter progress will be lost. Once at the title screen,
enter the 'Extras' menu to view the unlocked bonuses. Exit that menu and load your previously saved
game. Immediately save the game again. You will still have your silver and the unlocked bonus
options.
There is no easy way to get all the bonuses. You must do a set amount of large donations which are listed
as follows. The number indicates the number of large donations that must be made with the appropriate
bonus that you will get. Note: If you save and leave the game you must redo every donation
to get up to the same amount as when you saved.
