More On: Robin Hood
I love Robin Hood. As a kid, before I discovered Dragonlance and J.R.R. Tolkien's world of hobbits and wizards; Robin Hood and King Arthur were my favorite characters of the fantasy realm. I still have the illustrated Robin Hood book my parents gave me as a pre-teen.

Nordcurrent is bringing a Robin Hood shooter to the iPhone. Unfortunately, they haven't mentioned the Android platform in the release below, but I can hold out hope.

archers like himself, hides in Sherwood Forest and begins his fight
for justice. The fate of the people now lies in the player's hands!
