Call-Back: Near the end of the opening cutscene, Robin fires an arrow into the air, promising that Richard the Lionheart would be restored as King of England before it fell.Borrowed Catchphrase: The swordsmen mooks will say 'Take from the rich.' to justify robbing their knocked-out comrades when they take their money.Also, Sir Scathlock has elements of this. Big Good: Richard the Lionheart, and an arguable case with Lord Ranulph and Sir Godwin.They do no harm but will distract multiple enemies in an area. Bee-Bee Gun: Or rather a bee grenade - Friar Tuck can throw beehives as weapons.Averted with Prince John, who is The Unfought. Authority Equals Asskicking: Played straight with the bosses, officers and knights, due to their combat experience.

Artificial Stupidity: On the other hand, black guards will remain at their post even if they see a fight in progress, until the fight has ended, and will not pursue the player far.Blue and orange guards tend to rush into battle, while red guards are more cautious and will seek backup. They'll also wake up and untie incapacitated enemies and seek civilian assistance, to say nothing of interrogating beggars in case one is fake.

Artificial Brilliance: Guards will run extensive searches throughout every open area, call for backup, and report to their superiors.The allied civilians are clad in varieties of green, a grace not given in the company's sister game (see above). The better dressed and groomed civilians will often report any sightings of the player characters, while poor civilians will praise them, sometimes misdirect guards if they come looking for them and offer valuable information.Averted with Richard the Lionheart, Sir Godwin, Lord Ranulph and Robin himself (he is of noble family). Also, enemy knights are shown to be contemptuous of the regular soldiers and just as brutal as their underlings, while the mounted ones are not above killing unconscious opponents. The game's major villains are a prince, the famous sheriff, two nobles stated to be the prince's right and left hand men (at least in the region), respectively, and a rather brutal knight.As for the knights and paladins, your arrows completely bounce off of their armour. However, enemies carrying shields can block arrows, and each individual character can only carry about twelve arrows each. Your arrows, on the other hand, are a lot more powerful, often killing unshielded enemies in just one or two shots. Enemy arrows (and enemy crossbow bolts, to a lesser extent) deal fairly low damage, and are only dangerous because archers can fire them fairly rapidly. Annoying Arrows: both played straight and averted.An Axe to Grind: Sir Scathlock's weapon of choice.Team up with Little John and the rest of the Merry Men as the battle for the King’s throne ensues in. Roam the dense foliage of Sherwood, come face to face with royal trouble and battle against Prince John’s forces as you take on the role of legendary nobleman, Robin Hood.

The game takes an intriguing spin on gameplay, and instead of an action/adventure in the traditional sense, we instead have a stealth/real-time strategy game that is reminiscent of Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive.

This is a little known but highly enjoyable take on the enduring legend that is the bold bandit of Sherwood Forest, Robin Hood.

Saving and loading has also been substantially improved since Desperados. And while there is definitely some repetition between the missions, the variety of castles, keeps and medieval villages are a marvel to look at, day or night. The isometric visuals are absolutely gorgeous, fielding some of the most lovely hand-crafted 2D art in any game of its kind. On the technical side, Robin Hood certainly has its ups.
