The Adventures of Robin Hood

The Adventures of Robin Hood, released in 1991 by Millennium Interactive, is an isometric action-adventure game that reimagines the classic English legend. Players take on the role of Robin Hood, recently outlawed after losing his lands to the Sheriff of Nottingham, and must gather loyal followers, build strength, and strike back against tyranny.

The game offers a mixture of exploration, combat, and strategy. Players roam Sherwood Forest, raid convoys, ambush soldiers, and rescue captured peasants, gradually winning the support of the people. Recruiting familiar characters such as Little John and Friar Tuck adds new abilities and options, while stealth and planning often prove as important as direct confrontation.

Praised for its open-ended gameplay and charming isometric graphics, The Adventures of Robin Hood stood out as a unique take on the legend. Its blend of action, resource management, and storytelling gave MS-DOS players a fresh medieval adventure that balanced freedom with a strong narrative of rebellion and justice.
