Copyright ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ========================== 1. Introduction ==================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Super Robin Hood is one of the four games from the compilation catridge 'Quartto Adventure', I first thought of doing all four games and putting them in one faq but Treasure Island Dizzy already has a very good faq and the other games aren't that much fun. In Super Robin Hood you play the role of Robin Hood (duh) and you'll have to go trough the Nottingham castle to save Maid Marian, while you're doing this you'll be collecting all sorts of treasure on the way and you're going to be picking up keys to open doors and to get platforms moving. You can only finish the game when you have all the treasure but don't worry it's hard to miss one. The game also has lots of secret passageways which you can use to make it yourself easier, all in all it's a very nice game that you'll probable finish in a half an hour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================== 2. Story ====================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (story taken from manual) Thousand years ago in the ancient heart of old England the Sheriff of Nottingham held the people in an iron fist. The King has gone overseas and in his absence the Sheriff is demanding higher taxes threatening and imprisoning those who refuse. As winter draws nearer the impoverished peasants grow more and more desperate. They have no money for food and the Sheriff grows ever more powerful, the Earl of Huntingdon, also known as Robin Hood, was once a nobleman and faithful servant of the King but now he is an outlaw in the green forest of Nottingham which stretches, unbroken, for hundreds of miles and is mostly unexplored. He lives in the forest with his wife, Maid Marian, as a bandit stealing money from the tax collector and noblemen as they travel through and then giving it to the poor. The Sheriff is beside himself with rage and has kidnapped Maid Marian holding her as a hostage to force Robin Hood to give himself up. But Robin has found a way into the Sheriffs castle where Maid Marian is being held. The rescue begins… ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================= 3.

Enemies ====================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guards `````` The guards are the most common enemies in the game, they stand in one place and they fire of arrows at you, the amount of health the guard has is different per colour, the grey one being the strongest and the red one being the weakest. Dwarfs `````` The dwarfs are half the size you are and you can't kill them, so when you come across one you'll have to jump over him. Bats ```` The bats are very small so they're really hard to kill, another problem is is that they come back once you left the screen they're in. Spiders and balls `````````````````` Spiders and balls are the almost the exact same enemies, they'll hang on the ceiling and fall down every once in a while, pass them when they're on there highest. Cannon `````` The cannon also stays on one spot and shoots at you, you can't destroy it so when you're near one quickly get out of the way. Spikes `````` The spikes can come out of the ground or out of the ceiling, you can see some of them by the brown parts in the floor or ceiling, when you get near one, wait until it goes back in and than quickly run over it. Gargoyles ````````` The gargoyles look a lot like the ones from Zelda II, they're stuck on the ceiling and once in a while they fire a shot, when you get near time your moves carefully so that they don't hit you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ============================ 7.
