About Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood
Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood is a stealth-based real-time strategy game developed by Spellbound and published by Microids. The story begins in England, Anno Domini 1190. Richard the Lionheart is held prisoner, and his brother, Prince John, rules over the simple peasants with an iron hand, forcing them to bend to authority by pure force of arms. Only one man takes up the struggle against the oppressors, supported by a small band of brave and loyal followers. His name is Robin Hood.
You take on the role of the legendary nobleman, roam the dense foliage of Sherwood and battle against Prince John's forces as the fight for the King's throne unfolds. The non-linear campaign offers more than 30 different missions, with mission types ranging from robbery and infiltration to castle attacks and ambushes. Action and adventure combine with stealth tactical elements, so careful planning, hiding and choosing the right moment to strike matter as much as swordplay when you face the guards of the Sheriff.
Nine characters can be played in all, including Robin Hood, Little John, Friar Tuck and Maid Marian, each with specific abilities and attributes. An innovative combat system lets you interact with the mouse while fighting to access special combat skills. Atmospheric conditions such as day, night and fog change how missions play out, and you explore historic locations including Sherwood Forest, Nottingham Castle, York and many more across the campaign.
Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood runs on Windows and needs Windows XP, Vista or 7, a 1.0 GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, a video card with 64 MB of memory, a DirectX 9.0c compatible sound card and 1 GB of hard disk space. Text is available in English, German, French, Spanish and Polish. For fans of tactical stealth classics in the vein of Commandos, it offers a memorable medieval adventure.
