About the game
Hey folks! Ready to dive into Sherwood Forest and snatch some loot from the rich? In Robin Hood, each of you steps into the shoes of a master thief within our hero's crew. The goal is straightforward: amass as much treasure as possible, with no mercy! The Sheriff of Nottingham is watching closely, and Prince John is offering rewards for any 'illegal' goods seized. You'll alternate roles between being a cunning peasant trying to sell everything (even smuggled mead and stolen jewels) and the Sheriff himself, searching everyone at the city gates and profiting from seizures. It's a card game where cunning and luck go hand in hand. Manage your hand well, negotiate with your friends (or don't!), and use 'take that' strategies to outsmart everyone. At the end of the three weeks of festivities, whoever has the fullest coffers wins the glory (and the cash!). It's guaranteed fun for those who enjoy a light game with plenty of interaction and a beloved classic theme. With easy-to-learn rules and quick playtime, Robin Hood is perfect for livening up any board game gathering without fuss.
