    You can now embark on your adventures in the newest Dragon Quest 3 Remake. There are familiar and new challenges to take on, and you will spot some old faces in the crowd. The storyline is a breath of fresh air for veteran players who have played the original Dragon Quest games. There is a lot more to do now, and you can relive the past with new designs and new concepts. Once you reach the end stages of the game, you can unlock the Cloudsgate Citadel. 

    There are three new locations within the post-gameplay to explore on your quest to reach Cloudsgate Castle, but once you are here you can find and talk to the King. But what is more intriguing is the Bard beside the King, who has a set of riddles for you to solve. In this guide we will show you how to solve the Bard’s riddles in Dragon Quest 3 Remake.

    Cloudsgate Castle Location In Dragon Quest 3 Remake

    The only way to access Cloudsgate Citadel is to reach the post-game section. You can locate Cloudsgate Castle by following the steps below:

    • You can spot the Mysterious Cave just north from your spawn location.

    • Eventually, you will reach the 7th and final floor.
    • Pass through the exit to reach Cloudsgate Citadel.

    How To Solve All 3 Bard’s Riddles In Dragon Quest 3 Remake

    Once you reach Cloudsgate Citadel, talk to the King first to mark your location. Then, visit the room in the northeast section of the castle. Inside the room is the Bard in question, and he will sing three riddles to test your skills. To solve the riddles, pay attention to the questions, figure out the locations that he is talking about, and then get the items that he is looking for. With each item you retrieve, you can visit the Bard to get the next riddle. If you want an easy way out, you can check out the answers below

    Completing all the riddles and handing over the correct items to the Bard will end the quest. In return, the Bard will let you in on a little secret; there are 110 mini-medals hidden across the world, and it is up to you to find them. Since the gameplay is completely open world, you might want to work on customizing your character a bit.
