Robin Hood

Robin Hood of Sherwood is a tale popularised through Hollywood, Disney, and countless other venues. As such, not being familiar with the theme would be rather surprising. Here we have Evoplay Entertainment’s take on the subject. The reels are full of familiar characters, and some classic symbols, though otherwise, the game seems to follow the standards laid down ages ago for slots. What’s there to win here, and how does this one fare against other similar slots?

Theme

The familiar forest stretches into the background, with the about-to-be riches ready for redistribution on the forefront. This time around you are not dishing out the coins to poor people and beggars, but instead pocketing all of it yourself. The art style here is cartoonish, with a handful of animations thrown in whenever you land a win. The music and audio effects are fitting for the theme, even if they are a bit random in nature.

Betting Options and Functions

The setup is the normal: five reels with three symbol positions each. Through these the twenty paylines connect from left to right, resulting in plenty of wins as long as you land the required three to five symbols. Betting is set by adjusting coin value as well as coins bet per line. The setup is highly dependant on the casino you play in, though probably usually having plenty of options for all sorts of wallets.

The maximum win you can land from any five symbol combination is 500 times the line bet. The playing cards offer significantly less, maxing out at 88 times the line bet. Three symbols on a payline will yield a result of anything between 8 and 25 times the line bet. Variance is on the high end, at least until you count in the wilds.

Features

Three or more scatters, the symbol being the evil sheriff, awards ten free spins. During these spins, all wilds become sticky wilds. On top of this, the scatters themselves pay up 25 times your total bet as a one time prize.

The wild is the most interesting feature here. Not only does it become a sticky during free spins, but it also functions as a bonus feature of its own. Every time three or more wilds land on the reels you will gain three re-spins, with all wilds becoming sticky again. Any further wilds that land will stick to the reels and also award an extra re-spin.

Our Take

Though there are other games with the same theme that do a better job with graphics, such as Robin Hood Shifting Riches, this slot still does an excellent job with the way it is set up. The wilds, re-spins and free spins can result in quite massive wins. Try here for free before depositing to get the hang of the game.
