Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood

I got what i expected. No lag issues that other users seem to experience.

By watching a couple of tutorials, I got the hang of this game pretty quickly. You complete missions and build your band of merry men. As the story advances, your camp economy flourishes (assuming you don't lose many merry men). This makes it easier to complete missions. There are a variety of fun abilities to use in missions. Aside from a level that forces you to subdue all opponents with non-lethal force, the level design is mostly sound. Fighting mounted knights is the big problem - combat with them is glitchy. You also can't knock them out, so your only option is to stun them and then kill them - not my fighting mode of choice. Many of my mission restarts came because my characters couldn't figure out how to strike his area.

At it's core Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood is a point and click stealth game with a wonderful Robin Hood flavor. The mechanics are basic but have some interesting challenges and scenarios. You spend most of the game figuring out various ways to sneak past guard and explore the environment. I have put a lot of hours into this game over the years and I love finding new routes or locations I have never seen. The visuals are great and are a relic of a bygone era. I remember playing this on just a basic laptop in 2002 and it always ran great. I think this is a great game for anyone looking for something different or enjoys Robin Hood. P.S. Runs great on Linux. No hassles.

As a kid I was obsessed with Robin Hood. I read all the books, comics, watched all the movies so obviously I played this game over and over again. I thought it was brilliant. I came back to this title after many many years and oh boi did it age well. You got great mechanics, various characters with varying skills, good voice acting (although it's shame some characters are mute). Also, the game itself can be difficult, promoting stealth over fighting on harder levels, but when you're not into this you can go full out rampage with no problem on easy. Great game after all

Multiple games in one, based on the style you want to play. Ranging from fast surgical run directly for the goal, to a hard-earned many-hours stealth victores sparing every single possible life. Although its age can be easily spoted, well-made graphic age like wine. -- Everything above said, the joy can be interrupted by several short mission repeating themselves over and over again and user-unfriendly controls. Many buildings cannot be went around the wall, your prepared combos randomly don´t apply, pulling the weapon takes longer than average archer hitting you twice, when you figt in a group, you hide your weapon and pull it again for every enemy there, few funny bugs in the enemy AI, few frustrating bugs in your characters AI, ... -- If you still feels like "yeah, I can live with those issues", go and buy it now! :) The game is huge fun and it can hold you nearby till you finish it. And if you just hang around looking for something new fot tonights evening, you won´t be disappointed ith this pice either.
