I have also explored the castle but there's really nothing to do there to my knowledge, as half the rooms you can't go in and the other half aren't really interesting.

Ok, I got the hammer, the map, and a piece of string. I have worked for the bartender at the tavern and I got 20 bronze coins. I now have 17 bronze coins because I spent 8 on the map. I don't know why I need the hammer and I don't know what to do. I could use a hint!
