Each of the characters in the game has their unique specialties that come in handy to complete each mission, whether it be the ability to block incoming arrow fire, throw an apple to distract the guards, or heal other members of your party with herbs.

The game follows in the footsteps of games like Commandos and the earlier Spellbound developed Desperados, but adds a few neat twists to the squad-based puzzle strategy genre. Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood features a storyline that stays true to the legend, and plays out quite nicely as well. Seeing as how he now has no home and no king, Robin does what any kind-hearted rogue would - he dons a pair of green tights, gathers a bunch of desperate and dirty men and robs Prince John's minions in order to raise enough cash to free Richard. Nasty old Prince John has taken his family's land and displaced kind King Richard the Lion-Hearted, who is now languishing in an Austrian prison.

Only problem is, when he returns to his manor, he finds that he has no home left. Just in case you're not familiar with the legend of Robin Hood, Robin returns to jolly ol' England after slaughtering countless Saracens during the Crusades.
