Game Information

England is in turmoil! While King Richard the Lion-Hearted is off fighting the Crusades in Jerusalem, the relentlessly greedy Sheriff of Nottingham rises to power by running roughshod over the poor folk of Britain. Now you are Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, the only man with enough cunning, agility and courage to combat the Sheriff and his evil witch, Mortianna. First, you must battle cutthroat guards and escape the Saracen dungeon where you, your friend, Peter Dubois, and your new companion, the mysterious, but loyal, Azeem, are held prisoners of the Crusades. Back in England, you'll explore the treacherous Sherwood Forest where you'll muster your band: Little John, Friar Tuck and Will Scarlett. But remember, they will only follow you if you prove yourself worthy enough to lead them, rescue the lovely Maid Marian and free England from tyranny.

Additional Information

A handheld conversion of the Nintendo Entertainment System adventure, the Game Boy edition of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is an action-oriented RPG that follows the main storyline of the 1991 Kevin Costner film. Play is viewed from a top-down perspective, reminiscent of the early arcade hack-and-slasher Gauntlet. When two large groups meet in melee, the perspective zooms out to show more of the battle, and the view is from the side in duels and special fights. Characters earn more hit points as they gain experience, and new gear is equipped through a Paper Doll-styled interface. The plot leads Robin of Locksley and his band of merry men through forests and medieval castles, as they seek to finally bring the evil Sheriff of Nottingham to justice.

  • Based on the blockbuster Kevin Costner movie

  • Lead Robin and his merry men against the evil Sherriff
