Well, well, well, what do you know! Robin Hood can be a bird too, a Robin bird to be precise. Spot on. The bad Sheriff of Nottingham? Well, who else can it be but a black menacing Crow. And what about Lady Marian? Could it be the Dove? Hmm, whatever. Each bird in the game has a role to play, and I'm going to give all of them my first ever play on this version of Robin Hood, the bird kind. I don't mind if the game is a chirpy chirpy kind, as long as it isn't a cheapy cheapy kind. That would be disastrous for me! Hahaha.
First of all, I like the look of this game. The graphics are nice and colourful, vibrant enough to be attractive and appealing, without appearing boring, and those stacked Wild symbols really bring out the beauty of the game, graphics wise only of course. The words 'Robin Hood' is the Wild symbol, 5 of which pays a very low 500x the line bet, and is stacked both in the base game as well as in the Free Spins game. It substitutes for other symbols except for the Scatter and Bonus symbols. The Scatter symbol pays the usual 100x total bet, and getting 3 or more of them triggers 15 free spins with all wins doubled. The Free Spins game can be retriggered and the Bonus game can also be triggered during the free spins. The Bonus symbols pays 400x for 5 of them, but getting a symbol on reels 1 and 5 at the same time triggers the Archery Bonus game. The other symbols pay from 350x to 60x the line bet for 5 of each kind. A low paytable even for a 243-ways game.

In the Archery Bonus game, there are 5 picks to shoot the items to win cash prizes, with each prize ranging from 2x up to 15x the total bet amount, for a maximum win of 75x the total bet. Not a lot to win, but a decent maximum win nonetheless. In my only play on this game, I managed to get 2 Free Spins games as well as 2 Archery Bonus games. The payouts weren't so good, from a low 12x up to 33x my bet amount, but none of the 2 feature games fared better than the other. Yes, I have not played enough of Robin Hood no doubt, so my wins were rather low and uninviting. More plays would certainly see better results, but I'm not going for it. One play was enough for me. The game doesn't have the big wins potentials, so it isn't really my kind of game.
