🎮 Play Robin Hood: Conquests of the Longbow Online (DOS)

Robin Hood: Conquests of the Longbow is a 1991 graphical adventure game developed by Sierra On-Line for DOS. As the legendary outlaw, players must navigate the treacherous politics of Nottingham, outwit the Sheriff, and raise a massive ransom to free King Richard the Lionheart. The game features an icon-driven point-and-click interface and incorporates several mini-games, including archery tournaments and Nine Men’s Morris, directly into its puzzle-solving framework.

How to play

The objective is to gather enough wealth to pay King Richard’s ransom while maintaining a strong reputation among your men and the public. Control the game using standard MS-DOS inputs via your mouse and keyboard. You can cycle through actions (Walk, Look, Use) using the icon bar or by right-clicking, then left-click to interact. For fullscreen, press Right Alt + Enter.

Tips

• Your actions directly affect your reputation. Stealing from the poor or killing needlessly will negatively impact your standing and the game’s ending.
• Save your game before participating in the archery mini-games or playing Nine Men’s Morris, as losing them can drain your resources.
• Pay close attention to the clues given by the widow and your Merry Men, as they are crucial for knowing which travelers to ambush on specific days.
