Summary

It is a time of lusty wenches and black-hearted villains. King Richard has been slain and all of England is thrown into civil war. Only one person can lead the country to peace. Lay seige to castles and raid enemy strongholds to recover the lost crown. Enlist the aid of Robin Hood and outwit the vile Normans to restore order to the war-torn land. Face your foes on the battlefield or in grand tournaments of chivalry.

    The game is absolutely recommended, but it really is a shame that the developers didn't get link support in.

    It’s all a vaguely swashbuckling load of fun, with action and strategy thrown in together, but nothing outstanding.

    The AI still does an admirable job and keeps things random. You never play the same game twice and that really adds to the replay value.

    I was certainly interested and entertained, but I just felt more could have been given to you.
