Rescuing Robin Hood is a 1-5 player cooperative deck building game in which the Merry Band is trying to rescue Robin Hood from captivity. It will launch on Kickstarter on November 10.
In Rescuing Robin Hood, the characters that form the Merry Band (Maid Marian, Little John, Friar Tuck et al.) will first try to save villagers captured by the Sheriff of Nottingham. To do so, they will use their Wit, Stealth, Brawn, and Jolliness abilities as shown on each character's card. In the final round, you will select the best among those you have rescued, build a team, and head to the castle to rescue Robin Hood.
The Sheriff's men cards will be face down at first. By using Wit, you can flip over one card at a time. Stealth will allow you to attack any card in the pile. With Brawn, you can attack the whole row of enemies at once. This is all we know for now, more gameplay details will be revealed when the campaign goes live.
