Game Groups > Fictional character: Robin Hood

The legend of Robin Hood is one of the most common of the mythologies in England. In its retelling, it cannot be traced to a specific author or source, although certain retellings are more popular than others.

This game group deals with all inclusions of the medieval Robin Hood (some adaptations have identified him as Robin of Loxley) during the reign of King Richard the Lionheart, the characters in Robin's 'Band of Merry Men', and their fight against the Sheriff of Nottingham, in and around the area of Nottinghamshire and Sherwood Forest.

Limitations

• Games within this game group must at least have some significant correlation to the legend/history in its game plot;

• Games that merely identify characters/objects/places aforementioned without any significant direct plot to the legend/history of Robin Hood should be excluded from this game group.
