Not sure what version of Dink I have but it involves the Cast and all that good stuff... well anyways I'm at the point where I need to get into the goblin village and the guard won't let me in.. I have the Bow and Arrows and I went to see the tree guy to get the bow lore. I'm not sure if I really got it or not.. and the tree guy isn't there anymore. Is there something I missed??

Did you equip the bow? Also, I think you don't need Bow Lore to enter there. At least I didn't.

OOOOIIIIIIIINNNNKKKKKK?!?!?

You don't know how to equip things?!? I'm surprised you managed to get so far...
Well, anyways, press Enter, scroll the list with the arrow keys... press Control to equip. Cast spells by equipping the spell and pressing shift...
I'm Really Really amazed...

Oh that? Yeah I did that but he's telling me to come back later.. The walkthroughs say I need the bow lore and so I visited the dude but now I'm not sure if I actually got it (the money is gone and so is the guy...) ...probably black market grr to him haha.

Are you sure you managed to do it? Can you SEE Dink holding the bow in his hands, and being capable to shoot if you press and hold Ctrl?

ummm... this is my second day playing... not sure the lingo yet... what is "exhaust all options"?

It means that you try each single talk option.

Yeah, there are only 3 things i can do.. ask to get in, repeat an incident (which only gets me attacked...) or to leave.

... he wasn't much help so i killed him... I'm probably going to have to start from the beginning??

I said "I'm not sure of it". With that, I meant mostly "surely not"... What version are you playing? You can see the current version in the bottom of the title screen.

All it says is Dink Smallwood but the readme file is Mystery Island?? No idea what version..

In that case, it's propably below v.1.06. Download the newest version. Sorry, that means you'll have to start from the beginning.

Yeah, it probably is a bug that has been fixed in Dink 1.08. Dink 1.08 is a lot more playable than older versions anyway. Keep playing!

The world could always use more heroes 
Maybe she hadn't talked to the mayor yet...

Yeah the new version is a lot different than the one I was playing.. to answer your question, I had talked to the mayor to let him know that some stuff was about to go down and then set out to get the proof... Yeah I'm definately around the same place.. just 2000 coins short haha.. I really hate that haha. Keep killing those monsters though... although the slayers are tough they give GOOD money!

So, I know that this discussion is loooong over, but for anyone in the same situation - as I just was - the trick is to go and talk to the mayor's daughter and then the mayor all over again. Even though you may have already done it, do it again and the goblin guard will let you in.

I'm so glad I didn't have to start all over again
