![]() For instance, if Robin throws a coin between a group of soldiers, they will fight for that coin between them and you can safely sneak past them without the need for a fight. Another feature of the game is that you can turn the game to your advantage by confusing enemy units, that is, some characters have the ability to make enemy units fight or squabble among themselves. This is ideal when you are encountering enemy units as you don't have to worry about characters getting killed as you can focus on the problem at hand. The game also supports macro buttons that are setup during the game to allow your characters to perform special operations without the need to perform a variety of complex manoeuvres. The control system of the game does take some time getting use and you must use a variety of mouse and keyboard movements to control your characters. Although, I must emphasis that this game is more of a real-time strategy then a hard-core action game. Unfortunately there is a downside to this system as you will lose reputation among the peasants of England and their support. Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood is much more lenient when it comes to combat and you can actually succeed a few missions by using brute force instead of stealth and tactics. For example, when you are away on a mission, you can get your other characters to perform these resource management tasks so that when you return, you will have a freshly created stack of equipment or more proficient characters. This resource management is heavily focused upon during the game because your characters do not have an unlimited supply of equipment. There are also a variety of items you can build between missions such as arrows and healing herbs. This game could almost be considered a resource game because between missions, you can train your characters in the forests of Sherwood to increase their skills such as melee or bow attacks. Instead of just telling the player what to do, the game gives you a variety of missions that each has rewards and benefits. Unlike the other games, Robin Hood contains a non-linear storyline that actually gives players the choice of what missions they wish to complete. Every character you control in the game, whether it's Robin Hood or Friar Tuck has a unique ability and must be used in conjunction with other members of your group to successfully complete the mission. Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood is very similar to previous games by developers Spellbound, Commandos and Desperados and the main emphasis of the game is to use your men to solve a variety of puzzles and to defeat the evil minions of Prince John. By leading a group of rogues, Robin plans to free England from Prince John's vile grasp and raise enough money to free King Richard and return him to his rightful place. Unfortunately for Robin and his countrymen, England is now without a king and the ruthless and malevolent Prince John has taken over the throne by ensuring that King Richard remains imprisoned in the dungeons of Austria. The story revolves around the original tale of Robin Hood that sees Robin returning home after spending many years fighting for the crusades in the east.
