Nocked! True Tales of Robin Hood, a hybrid text-based RPG set in the Robin Hood universe has released on Windows PC and Mac (Steam).
You’ll be able to forge your destiny and fight to liberate Nottingham in this epic story-driven RPG blending a text-based adventure with resource management and base building set within a lushly-illustrated Sherwood Forest.
Define the deeds and identity of Robin Hood, outlaw of Sherwood Forest; recruit allies, forge alliances, find love; and chart a path between war, negotiation, and dangerous magics. Your choices are remembered and your actions shape the world, but you can’t do it alone.
Originally launched on iOS in 2017, Nocked! True Tales of Robin Hood comes to Steam with over 100,000 additional words added and restructured game mechanics.
Developer, Andrew G. Schneider said: “Nocked’s desktop launch is more than just an additional hundred thousand words, hundreds of pieces of new art, and an hour of music; it’s a complete restructuring of the game, where narrative begets mechanics to create a complete story-based RPG experience.”
