Ending for
Bard's Tale III

How To Reach
Defeat Tarjan, simple as that! In reality, getting to the end of Bard's Tale III is very difficult and even more time-consuming. You have 8 worlds to finish, lots of dungeons to map and levels to grind. Take a look at the walkthrough to see what's involved.


The Ending
Ending

With Tarjan defeated, the party is lifted up through the ether to a place made from pure light. You are treated to a nice animated scene of the old man (that gave you the quest) and your friend Hawkslayer knighting you and heaping accolades on your party. There's quite a bit to read, a fitting end to your epic campaign.

(Note that at this point the game has completely ended, there's no way to continue or restart.)


Shortcut
A Plus/4 World exclusive, we do have a shortcut, AKA how to "beat" the game with a single level 1 character. Note that this can only be done using emulators.

Load the game, create a new character (name, gender, race, class doesn't matter) and add it to the party. (E)nter wilderness. Once loaded, enter in Monitor:
>3E25 FF
>3E61 FF
>9 1 12
X

(L) (C) (1) "EVIL": This teleports to Malefia. Pigmy's version does not have the copy protection removed, so you must enter the correct numbers from the code wheel.
Insert dungeon disk side B. Once loaded:
>9 6 D
X

(L) (W) Move down to 2nd level. Once loaded:
>9 5 B
X

(L) (W) Move down to 3rd level. Once loaded:
>9 B
X

(L) You fall through the floor, press any key. Here, the party falls into a trap, which may kill the character (in that case you must unfortunately start over).
>9 2 3
X

(L)
You meet Tarjan, and he starts his monologue. Once the battle starts:
F B760 B81F 0

(F)ight bravely, (D)efend, (Y)es, you've won the fight. Tarjan monologues some more, then attacks you. Once the battle starts:
F B760 B81F 0
X

(F)ight bravely, (D)efend, (Y)es. Enjoy the endsequence!
