HOW DO I EVEN PLAY THIS I CAN’T DO ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what are you on?
keyboard
can you tell me how?
I added an explanation of the basic functions at the beginning! I hope that makes it easier for you. 🙂
I’m at the beginning of the game, and I don’t know what to do. I keep clicking the npc in the house but they aren’t responding. I tried leaving and going to another area, but it said I can’t go there yet. Please tell me what to do.
So I just talked to the who said my foster father made it into the palace. Is this the ending or is there more to do?
i was able to play through it, it was interesting
how did you get the apples
They are in little barrels near the goats.
the wat
Walk into the baskets of apples by the well and then walk into the apple that appears on the floor.
(The baskets of apples are in the sheep pen)
How do you move on iPad?
You don’t.
Wrong
There should be a joystick in the bottom left corner
Turn of deskop site
Set your game to I pad mode then it is same as phone (I also play on I pad it was confusing at first for me too)
The beginning was pretty cringe , he kept saying “Destiny, destiny, destiny” just thinking about that got me chills… and she just left in a jiffy, like nothing had happened
I changed the conversation at the shrine a bit. Marian’s scared now…! ;D
I played till the password,a don’t think a can do something so original
Look down
wtf
“GG”,is the secret code for my game,GOOD WORK Aura
u first go to the man inside the house
how u talk to him
Walk into him
oop. i guess we just walk around. i use a keyboard.
same i also use keabord
what do you do once you complete trials?
Walk up to where the line is, north from the trials. You will be able to walk beyond the line even though it doesn’t disappear visually!
If you get the father to come with you to the castle, have you beaten the game?
The game is beaten when you talk to the trial advisor (the statue) again! Talk to the foster father in his room to get there!
I can’t seem to find out how to get into the king’s quarters. Is there a key of some sort? Is it another trial that tests all of my previous skills? Is it a bug? HELP!
You can only get into Marian’s and the fathers quarters! You aren’t able to enter the other rooms!
But why then i got the Task to meet the King in the Throne Room? That Guard in front of the Castle. Said he wait in the Throne Room. The first two Guards in the Castle said “Go ahead the King is waiting” but then the Last Two Guards in front of the Throne Room Door just say “…” and i cant enter the Throne Room
Only the right part of the door works, you can’t enter if you go through the middle
Oh ok, I give it a try again ^^
Idk know either, I’m on iPad and i can’t move
computer use only (it doesnt work on ipad, it only works on computer)
TURN OF DESKOP SITE!!!
Turn of deskop site!
maybe because u r not on computer
I added an explanation of the basic functions at the start! I hope that makes it easier for you. 🙂
I’m confused too
How do you make it so that in the beginning the dad won’t talk again until you have got the water and apples, and when you have he has a different dialogue. My characters can’t do that when I make a game.
use tokens
yh me to, whenever i try to move the whole screen moves.
Turn of deskop site.

Cool map, but I can’t play. I think I’m supposed to talk to the dad, but he’s facing towards the table so that I can’t talk to him. But a beautiful map!
You can talk to him by walking towards him from to top
I talked to the dad once but I cant talk to him twice
Y e s.
I had the same issue, walk back and forth behind him for a while til’ he talks to you. It takes a while sometimes!
Great ending!
How do beat it? I can’t play!
do you know where the apples are?
Why does nobody know how to play!?!? It is so self-explanatory.
Love this game! It was the first game me and my played on rpg playground!
I did it.
how did u get the apples?
Yeah, how do you get the apples?
Just touch the bucket of apples near the well. The well is where you get the water.
same question
how do you do the trial of strength?
How do I get the apples?
soo.. over 2000 plays.. this ust be an amazing game
It’s a great game!
Do you know how to beat the trial of stregnth?
ikr?
How do I get the apples?
How do I get apples!!! 🙁
The bucket by the sheep
GG. This game was awesome! How long did this even take to make?
I made this in 3 weeks 🙂
I cant get through the trial of strength
Me too bruh
same
i just move around a lot its like a maze and i end up goin in circles.
really? its actually really easy. just grab the pickaxe and use all of the doors you find. you’ll find it soon! (the exit)
I can’t get any APPLES!!!
Use the bucket by the sheep
Good game.
pretty cool
The mine/cave labyrinth is the most BS thing I’ve EVER seen. It’s sooooooo confusing and you have no idea where to go, and the janky doorways DO NOT help whatsoever. Otherwise, really good game!
Yeah, is it beatable? Been trying to find a way but to no avail.
Yeah you just need the pickaxe from the beginning by going to what’s actually a sickle then you can slash at wood, and although it doesn’t make the wood disappear, you go through it
this is a relly good game
Interesting game! I do have a problem beating it tho, because ALL THE TRAILS ARE RIGGED!
Come on! The trail of wisdom makes no sense, the trail of heart is just random chance, and the trail of strength is a trap!
In short, I couldn’t beat any of them, and the fact that you have to restart the game each time you fail just makes it worse.
The game looks cool tho.
After completing two of the trials…
I don’t have too much of a problem with the Trial of the Heart, however there is an error with the Trial of Wisdom. A simple Google search will tell you that 12 AM is when time is written as 00:00, not 12 PM. (Also, the Trial of Strength is still bogus. If anyone completes it tell me how.)
GO THROUGHT EVERY RIGHT-1 EVRY TIME PATH
I fixed this! You’re right, 12 am is correct!
i beat the trial of strength and heart but struggling with wisdom lol.
It seems good but I didn’t like how much talking there was
fix the trial of strength
.
Great map designs and interesting story, but some of the mechanics are WAY too janky, which damages a little the experience. Still, solid game, 7.5/10
How do you get the apples?
this game is awsome and IT IS NOT RIGGED who ever made this is AMAZING
YES IT ONLY TOOK ME 2HOURS TO BEAT THE TRIAL OF STREGTH BUT I FINALLY DID IT I FINISHED THE GAME YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
POG I FINISHED IT IN 20 MINUTES POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG
HOW DO YOU GET PAST THE MINE LEVEL
I finished in less than 10 mins lol
WHAT DO U DO AFTER YOU GET THE WATER AND APPLES?!
go back into the house and talk with the dad again
I can’t move using keyboard is it a mouse thing?
Really fun and pretty but how the heck do i get past the mine level
I cant believe that i finished xD Good game!
Does the game end after the father goes to the castle? Should I be looking for him?
Same problem. After going back and forth I can’t find an real ending.
You can find him behind one of the doors in the castle (go right or left from the floor that leads to the throne room!) Talk to him and you may find your ending 😉
HOW DO I GET OUT OF THIS STUPID MINE THOUGH!!!
beeep bop skeep bop ( what is this like what)
…
Thanks for any other magnificent article. The place else may just anybody get
that kind of info in such a perfect way of writing?
I’ve a presentation next week, and I’m on the look for such info.
This is my first time pay a quick visit at here and
i am truly pleassant to read everthing at one place.
i couldnt talk to the dad cuz he moved
Good game but on trial 2 the answer should be 12am because 12pm was an hour 20 minutes ago my time, mid-day. Not that it matters because it’s only a one time thing but it threw me off so just wanted to mention it…
I fixed this! Thanks for the feedback. 🙂
It’s good to see fixes coming even after a few years! I just started using RPGPlayground again and it’s cool to see the community still alive and kicking.
For those of you who don’t know, the water and apples come from bucket and well by sheep, and in the mine to get out go to the sickle looking thing and the rest should be self explanitory
It may be short but it’s quite impressive. Especially as a way to see what I can do with my games, so far I’m only experimenting and this can help quite a bit, I found the trial of strength as a good idea to confuse the players.
ummmm… i can’t get to the king
no puedo salir de la cueva
How do I move because I am in mobile
Tab then move with the cursor at the lower left side of the screen.
So I finished the game by not failing the trials. What happens if you fail the trials?
Spoiler:
You get teleported back to the shack.Talk to the father again for the other ending. You can start over again by stepping on a magic circle. All of your progress is lost though, which means the trials you absolved are being resetted!
How do I move around on iOS?
It said I picked 12 pm! And then it said 12 am! It’s broken!
I forgot to change that part, sorry. Ment is 12 pm! Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it! 🙂
meant
Still says it’s wrong, but the text before it was changed.
That is because that is the wrong answer. Maybe try a different clock. (I don’t want to spoil!)
But it says “Does *the same answer* make sense? I… I guess not.” for me
Oh wait, maybe another typo is present so it reads like the other side of time!
The correct answer is 12 am, 0:00 o’clock! That is not a typo!
There are quite a bit of typos, but it’s not a big deal.
what is the point of this game
I have some Games as well one’s called John.exe and the other is called Spacegirl and Ash2000.
how to pass the mine i found the picaxe what do i do?
how to pass the mine i found the picaxe what do i do
I failed the trial with the chests and now I can’t leave my house. Anyone else have this issue?
This game is cool! I love the scenery.
Tyvm!
Great game!
Extremely frustrating. Can’t seem to do anything but bump into things that don’t react to me in any way. All these “go get the apples” comments are also infuriating when absolutely nothing happens from trying to interact with the apples or the buckets. Looking at all the similar comments I see I’m not alone–in fact “I can’t do anything” is the very first comment on it. Might want to rethink this as the #1 game on your example games page because I can think of no better way to make people give up on this whole thing and never come back.
Normally, the dialog pops up when you touch the baskets… Are you using a keyboard or your phone? Because on phone you may try a few times until it works. You have to stand right in front of the baskets.
I also added the sentence ‘The apples are in the baskets near the well!’ to the father’s dialog! I hope that helps…
What do I do when start?
Which one do I choose for trial of heart?
The latest update ruined the game. Impossible to get apples
Fixed!
I like the game, I would make it a bit easier to talk to the dad though…
how do you escape the mine?
WOWOWOWOW
This is the first game I played here, comparing this to my own small project that I’m making, it’s enormous, grand, so splendid. I can never make anything like that.
I dont even know how someone could make a game so splendid!!!!
i finished the trials,but it keeps saying “mabye i need to finish the trails frist” can someone explain what to do?btw i think this game is absoutly gorgues!
Hey SunsetHaze, I fixed this! It was because you didn’t “talk” to the middle of the line that blocks the way. Before, only the tile in the middle would teleport you to the entrance after clearing all the trials… Hope it works now and thanks for mentioning it! 🙂
sorry for the belated response,thanks!
I remember when I first saw this game. It had only about 1000 plays, now it has more than 10 times that much!
The scenery is stunning :O
I finally finished this game, and it truly is amazing! I liked all the small changes you’ve made over the years. The story is sweet and, dare I say, inspiring. I would also like to apologize, the first two comments I’ve made were terribly rude and you didn’t deserve to be treated like that. You listen to everyone who has made a comment and it really is appreciated. Great job!
That is very kind of you, nooblet. Thanks 🙂
Your game is amazing but its a bit confusing
I can get the Apples but the Dad wont talk to me no more after that.
Did you get the water from the well?
The test of strength has to be bugged…you just keep getting sent back to the beginning no matter what…
nvm…just needed to get the pickaxe…should give a hint when entering
Awesome game! Almost made me cry!
I’m liking it so far. I kind of laughed a little from the dad’s poor choice with the password. If it had been one word, cool, but the kid has to remember a few sentences on a time crunch. School has taught me to think, “oh, shoot, how hard is the pop quiz going to be?” XD I’ll be coming back after sleeping, and I appreciate your efforts!
Bro my character keeps glitching in mine 🙁
Love the game!
i’m browsing a few games for key inspiration to make mine, and i enjoy your game so far. it’s very buggy but it has its charm
how do I restart? I cannot get out of the trial of strength.
Dell done
This Game is Well Made
check out my game too its called: Castle
https://rpgplayground.com/?post_type=game&=113725
Yeah it is but how do you play?
Oh now I know how to play!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In the mine it imposablile.
WHY WHY WHY????????
Take the pickaxe at the beginning and you may go a different way! Hope that helps 😉
Thanks so much!
But I did grab the pickaxe and i didn’t know how to mine it
I’m not a pro at RPG playground you know what i mean.
this game is legendary! LOL. you are INCREDIBLE for creating the most popular rpg playground game of all time! (i am working on a game, and when its finished i would be honored to have you play it!)
I’d be glad to play your game! And a huge thanks from me 🙂
thanks! i played your other two games, and they’re great too! i’m just confused about a lill girls tale though!
What are you confused about? Maybe I can help out…
i’m confused on how to get to get too the fairy. the wishing well tells me to find more clues, but i’ve pretty much looked everywhere. so i don’t know what to do.
You can’t go directly to the wishing well. I assume you already found the fairy at the place that the note on the tree told you?
After that, you have to find three wells before going to the wishing well!
thanks for the hint! i’ll keep this in mind next time i play!
It was a great game but I can’t seem to beat the last trail. The strength one.
This game is so beautifully amazing!!! I loved the maps, trials and character interactions!!
This is not only good..
But incredible!
The strength trial took some time to figure out tho..
But i wish i could make games like this!
the game is mid
i cant talk to the dad again what do i do after i get the apples and the well
How do you do the stregnth trial
I think the thing where i pick future or past
Past is the right answer cause past is what make who you are right now and looking back at the past make you a strong person cause when uou look at the future you only see unpredictable thing but when you look in the past you see your family,friend and many more who support you giving you strenght to move to the future
Maybe both answers are correct here. But always looking back doesn’t let you advance! You can’t walk by looking backwarts after all, right?
yeah. your neck would hurt after a few hours. 😉
I’m super confused how to get passed the strength test. I can’t find it; it’s making me super frustrated. Please help me!
I LOVE this game! It is super fun, even though some of the trails are a bit frustrating, I love it!
a thought just struck my mind. what if there was a legend of the three orbs sequel? i would LOVE to see that!
The map is so beautiful and its such a fun game. Somehow i got all trials right the first time. Except the strength one with the labrynth, it took me like five minutes but it was really fun that was my favorite part. Thank you for making this game, it looks like it took alot of work, its really really good.
I love the game xxx
Dear god I spent like an hour trying to pass the trials- but its still an amazing game and the scenery is absolutely beautiful and I can’t imagine how much thought and effort you put into this
I love this! How long did it take to make? It is so huge, with so much detail!
i cant talk to the dad pls help
You can pass the trial of strength by getting the pickaxe and going through the first doorway, then the blocked doorway. Afterward, go through the hole on the left, then the hole to the south on the ground. Go through the doorway on the right, then go through the archway on the right(without stairs), which transports you to the archway above with a ladder. Go through the hole in the ground, then the doorway to the right. You are now on the other side, so go through the archway to the north. You will see a blue circle. Step on it, and it’ll take you to the exit.
Ty so much for this is was the only part I couldn’t find out
tres belle realisation felicitation
Just so you know when your talking to the spirit after you finish the trials and are in the town the spirit says ALways with a capital L after the A on the last text box.
Really good game!
What is the 2nd ending???
I tried going everywhere and doing everything but I couldn’t find it
pls tell me?!?!
The second ending is when you fail the trials… Maybe many ppl miss it cause they directly move on and don’t talk to the father after failing! You’ve gotta do that to experience the 2. ending.
Well… Maybe it’s not a real ending lol 😉
Ok cool, thanks
hi! you know the beginning where Marian talks to herself? I’m currently making my own game but I can’t seem to know how to do that. how do you?
Use an invisible actor. The one on the ground (the square shaped one). Then make sure your hero is placed right on top of it. That’s it! 🙂
Oh! Thank you so much! I will use this later
I’m actually working on a very long RPG called tales of the void check it out https://rpgplayground.com/game/tales-of-the-void
I love this game! There wasn’t a single part of this that disappointed me, and was a blast to experience! I love the characters and story! There’s no question as to why this game is RPG Playgrounds’ most popular/played game on the site! I also love the plot twist to where the King and Queen are Marian’s true parents. This game is awesome and hope to see more of Marian soon. Thank you @aura, for making a masterpiece.
Pls play then this game too. https://rpgplayground.com/game/dungeon-fighter-1
Many many thanks!
I’m just training now, maybe I can prepare such games in the coming years.
このゲームめちゃ面白いサイコー
no me deja pasar donde la contraseña
Play this game too https://rpgplayground.com/game/dungeon-fighter-1
That game was so fun!
The strength part is very confusing and frustrating.
RPGPlayground is kind of limited when making challenges so it’s difficult being innovative and easy but I know what you’re talking about. I think subtle clues would be perfect for this kind of a challenge
Beautiful game!!! I enjoyed it all from start to finish!!!! ✨
If you cant see the joystick, turn of deskop site!
So Great
I like how the farm looks. You did a great job there.
jouez plutot a : #la légende c’est le meilleur jeux du monde !
It takes sooo long to win
I got to the end and it was relly good
How do you make the levels look so good? It looks like you spent a weeek on each one!
Well it’s a bit like drawing. You create a base (like the floor or ground, some houses a.s.o.), then you keep on getting more detailed. But to be honest, I actually spent 1 or 2 days for each map…
it’s to HARD
This is my first time playing a game on RPG Playground. The game is a good first impression. Nice job.
Terrible
I can’t believe that this is still the most played game, I remember seeing it in its earliest stages. I think the level design is amazing
My only complaint is the heavy usage of chance. As far as I could tell, the answer to the Trial of the heart had no clues that lead to the right choice and the trial in the middle (which I forgot the name of) ends in a bit of a subjective way. You need to learn from your past which is why it makes us strong. Hanging onto the past makes you weak though which is why I say it’s supjective; it depends on how you interpret the question between the two paintings. My personal interpretation was that you either forget the past and focus solely on the future, or you learn from the past and use it to build your future; your intended interpretation though was more like you need to quit letting your past hold you down and look up to the greatness of the future. In my interpretation, the past is important and the correct answer, but in your intended interpretation, the past is a part of life that you need to get over and move on from and the future is the correct answer. It wouldn’t let me save (this is a problem with RPGPlayground not your game) so I didn’t make much progress beyond that point.
Hey CamyJay, I think you are right with the picture quiz at the end of the trial of stregth! So I changed the question to “What do you think will make you stronger right now…?”. The trial of heart is called like that because it should be a bit random. But if you watch closely you’ll see that theres a hint to the right answer (One of the crystals!).
Thanks for your feedback!
~Aura
Ohhh okay lol I guess I wasn’t attentive enough glad to see you still put effort into the game though, thank you!
hello
Hello o/
WHICH CHEST IS IT T-T
NVM, my ending was soooo cute, great game.
Are you sigma or Skibadeeeee
I’m just curious as to how i can talk to my father if i cannot reach him
I’m not sure what to do about the caves if they lead all the same paths…
folgt mir wenn ihr ehre habt
Marian’s story sounds like a charming mix of solitude and suspense—just the kind of indie game that sneaks up and surprises you! With two endings and challenges testing your endurance and luck, I’m definitely intrigued. Can’t wait to explore her journey and see where fate leads.
