All Riddler Barley Answers in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2
Riddler Barley, a roaming NPC, appears randomly in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's open world. Each encounter presents a riddle; correct answers yield groschen or skill experience. Some riddles are challenging, so here are the solutions:
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What belongs to you alone, but is used more often by others? | My name. |
| Once upon a time there was a fool of a farmer. Family he had none, no stable boys either, so he talked to his animals instead. And, good man that he was, whenever he made a groschen or two, he shared it with them according to his own rules. Every hen in the coop was paid five groschen, every bee in the hive 15, and the spider in the loft bagged a full 20 groschen. And now you tell me, how much did the cat get? | 10 groschen. |
| Jaromir the coachman hailed from Raborsch. One morning, he set off for Kuttenberg with an empty coach. Three lads boarded in Bohunowitz. When arrived in Bojischt, one of the boys got out and a washerwoman took his place. In Horschan, the washerwoman went on her way and a pedlar and his daughter boarded. In Pschitoky, the remaining lads alighted and took the pedlar’s daughter with them. And straightaway, two fishermen got in. And on reaching Kuttenberg that evening, they invited the coachman to the bathhouse and got pig-drunk. And now you tell me, what was the coachman’s name? | Jaromir. |
| A baliff has 12 men join up for service one day. The baliff was glad, but soon discovered that he didn’t have enough gear for them in the armoury. So those 12 men filed onto the square for the next morning’s roll call. Six of them were wearing body armour, four had helmets. Only three of them wore both a helmet and body armour. Now, tell me, how many men were unlucky enough not to have either a helmet or armour? | Five. |
From the second riddle onward, Barley proposes a groschen wager (starting at 100, increasing to 150 for riddles three and four). Correct answers offer a choice: accept the wager or gain skill experience. Depending on Henry's progress, skill experience might be more advantageous than the money, especially after winning dice games.
The riddles' solutions are relatively straightforward: the second involves animal leg counts; the third is a memory test; the fourth requires simple arithmetic.
