The Adventures of Robin Hood description

The legend of Robin hood probably known to all from childhood, and, in General, no matter how you first meet with one of the favorite folk heroes English retellings of legends or Tokmakova Gershenzon, translated by Marshak ballads or old movies. Robin of Locksley is a noble robber, the leader of the merry men of Sherwood Forest, robbing the rich and favoring the poor, constantly leaving the fool of the Sheriff of Nottingham – this time, your protégé.

In this isometric adventure, you really have to play Robin hood, but brought it in not quite the usual form. Downtrodden peasants living in the villages near the forest, afraid of a good bandit and his friends, and your job for a number of missions to raise your reputation in their eyes. But – just as the first goal; then you learn the history of the Robin (which is quite different from that known to us from legends) and will have to return to your ancestral castle.

The game is quite simple: most of the mission is to killing the Sheriff's men. "Quest" items there, but very few of them. One of the interesting features we can highlight the change of seasons (before it always shows beautiful animated screensaver) and relatively high intelligence NPC as your opponents and civilians, who are constantly engaged in some business, making the game world more alive.

Graphics, maybe someone will disappoint you, because for its time, really a little outdated, and the size of locations is very small. However, some time after the start of the game do not notice, because the gameplay really exciting.

Not as pretty as released a year earlier the famous quest by Sierra, this game, however, certainly deserves the attention of all lovers of old adventure.
