Product Description

The year is 1193, and the county of Nottingham, England is suffering under the oppressive rule of the corrupt Prince John and his henchmen. In this cooperative family board game, players take on the roles of Robin Hood and his Merry Men as they battle the wicked rulers in the city and throughout Sherwood Forest. Designed and illustrated by Michael Menzel, the award-winning creator of the Legends of Andor game series, this game features a beautifully illustrated gameboard that changes over the course of the game and a gorgeous, faux-leather-bound, 216-page hardcover storybook that narrates the story and advances the gameplay.

An innovative game mechanic allows you to move your character figures freely around the gameboard; you do not need to follow one set route. The gameboard also has interactive panels that are flipped to reveal hidden characters and new gameplay elements during play. As your quest progresses, you open these panels and speak to various characters who alter your course. A quickstart game in the rulebook effortlessly launches you into the action. Grab your bow and arrow and join the fight for justice and equity!

Scarlett F. ★★★★★

We've played this four times in one week, which says a lot for a co-op game where nobody fights over who wins. The rotating turn order keeps everyone involved, even my six-year-old, so no one's just watching. Beating the Sheriff's men together feels genuinely tense right up to the last card.

Kevin ★★★★★

My kids actually cheer when Prince John's henchmen show up on the board, which says a lot for a game where we all lose together. The cooperative setup means my youngest can help spot clues without anyone getting knocked out early. We've had it a month and it still hits the table every weekend.

Sophia ★★★★★

We've played this co-op board game four nights in a row now, and losing to Prince John's henchmen never feels unfair — it just makes us want to reshuffle and try a new plan. The way each player has a distinct role, like sneaking versus fighting, keeps everyone involved instead of one person running
