Walkthrough Menu

General Tips

  • This is a Hidden Object Adventure game. In addition to the items on the Find List, you must find Key Items that go into your Inventory Tray so they can be used later.
  • There is no timer.
  • Use the MENU tab in the lower left to return to the Main Menu.
  • The game autosaves automatically.
  • Most locations have a main scene and 1 or more additional zoom scenes. The zoom scenes will sparkle and your cursor will change to a twirling magnifying glass in that area. When you click on the sparkles the zoom scene will open. Many areas do not sparkle until you have completed other tasks, so be alert to new sparkles during a chapter.
  • You can travel to unlocked scenes in any order you like, and revisit scenes as much as you like. If you have done everything you can in a location, there will be an AREA CLEAR sign at the top of the screen. You may still need to travel through that area to get to another location.
  • Because different players will do things in different order, there’s no fixed length to the game. If you want to get a sense of how far along you are, check the Journal to see how many PARDON PIECES you have collected. You will need to collect all 62 to complete the game, so if you’ve collected 25 so far you know you have a lot of gameplay left.

General Tips for the Inventory Tasks

  • This game has many adventure elements where you must complete tasks important to the story, like opening a locked chest. Inventory tasks cannot be skipped.
  • You will get hints about inventory tasks from the comments that Robin makes in the lower right.
  • The spoken dialogue sometimes has more information than the written text. You can turn the dialogue value down if you don’t want these extra clues by using OPTIONS from the Main Menu.
  • Key Items are needed to complete the inventory tasks. Key Items may appear on the Find List in the zoom scenes, be stand alone items in the main scene, or be given to you automatically when you complete other tasks. For example, opening a treasure chest may add several Key Items to your inventory tray.
  • Key Items are not identified ahead of time, so check your inventory at the end of each Hidden Object Scene and Quest to see if any new items have been added.
  • Key items may be used in the scene where they are found or later in the game.
  • If you collect more than one of the same kind of item, for example 2 SILVER NUGGETS, they will go into the same tray in your inventory.
  • If you pick up an item from your Inventory Tray and then decide you don’t want to use it, click on any empty space in the tray to put it back.
  • If there is a spot in the scene where you can use a Key Item, the cursor will change to gears.
  • The Inventory Tray is always open in the main scenes. Use the arrows on the left and right to scroll through your inventory.
  • To use a Key Item, click on it in the Inventory Tray, move the cursor to where you want to use it, then click again.
Robin's Quest
  • The task list (1) in the upper left of the screen will remind you what your current objectives are.
  • The lower left counter (2) shows you how many PARDON PIECES you have collected for the current Merry Man.
  • The Hint Jar (3) shows you how many HINTS you have available. You can use HINTS during main scenes to help with inventory tasks.
  • For more detail on the current Quest or to check your progress, open the Journal (4) in the lower right. Some secret codes will also be recorded in the Journal.

General Tips for the Hidden Object Scenes

  • All objects are generally the right color and size.
  • You may only be able to see part of an object.
  • Click on the HINT in the lower left if you need a hint in a Hidden Object Scene. This will shoot purple smoke towards one of the items from the Find List.
  • The number on the HINT jar shows you how many hints you have available.
  • If you need more hints, capture more FIREFLIES. 3 FIREFLIES = 1 hint.
  • The Find List will be different for different players, but the Key Items will always be the same.
  • When you have done everything you can in a zoom scene, it will close automatically.
  • If you want to leave a zoom scene on your own, click on the X in the upper right corner to return to the main scene. You will need to do this if you want to go get more Hints before completing the scene.

General Tips for the Bonus Items

  • There are four kinds of Bonus Items in the game: Pardon Pieces, Gold Coins, Wanted Posters, and Fireflies.
  • Quite often the bonus items are hidden behind or inside something else. For example, you might have to move books on a shelf to find gold coins behind them.
  • If you don’t use the walkthrough, move your cursor carefully across the scene, looking for places where it turns into a hand or gears. These will often be optional activities that reveal bonus items.
  • You can see how many bonus items you’ve collected by checking the Journal in the lower right.
  • FIREFLIES look like round blue-white dots that move around the main scenes. Click on one to capture it.
  • Once you’ve have done all of the required tasks and collected all the bonus items in a scene, the words “Area Clear” will appear at the top of the screen in that location.
  • If you’ve done all the required tasks, you can use a HINT to reveal a bonus item like a WANTED POSTER.

General Tips for Special Abilities

  • During the game, Robin will learn several Special Abilities, starting with being able to shoot a bow accurately.
  • You will also add more team members, each of whom has a special ability.
  • When the cursor turns into a hand holding a star, click there to open the medallion showing the available Special Abilities.
  • Choose the Special Ability you want to use, then click. You will be returned to the scene with that Special Ability activated.
  • You may find a place in the scene where you need a Special Ability that you don’t have yet. In that case you will have to come back when you have acquired that Special Ability, usually by adding the team member who has it.

General Tips for When you get Stuck

  • If a scene says AREA CLEAR at the top, there is nothing else to do in that location. It’s only open so that you can travel through it to get to other areas.
  • If a scene does not say AREA CLEAR, but you can’t figure out what you’re supposed to do there, there are several possibilities.
  • Look for sparkles first. These reveal zoom scenes with puzzles or Hidden Object Scenes.
  • If there are no sparkles, look for places where the cursor changes.
  • You can use a HINT to find optional items, like GOLD COINS.
  • If you click on the HINT jar and nothing happens, but there’s no Area Clear sign at the top of the screen, that means that you need something from another location before you can complete a task in this one. That might be a Key Item, or something purchased in the Market, or another team member.

Chapter 1: Rebel

  • The Prologue told you that Robin (a woman) and her husband were trying to steal a tax cart from the Sheriff, and have been locked in different parts of the Castle. Robin’s goal is to escape and then rescue her husband. You start out in Robin’s Jail Cell.
  • WANTED POSTERS are marked in red.
  • PARDON PIECES are marked in purple.
  • GOLD COIN CACHES are marked in green.
Robin's Quest
  • Open the Chest (A) and then click on it a second time to collect the JAR and the LOCKET.
  • The JAR will become the HINT JAR in the lower left of the screen. The LOCKET will be the Skip icon for the puzzles.
  • Complete the Hidden Object Scene under the Bed and collect the BONE (C), DINNER KNIFE (D) and CLOTH (E).
  • Use the BONE to collect the CANE (B).
  • Use the CANE to collect the guard’s KEYS (F).
  • Use the KEYS on the Gate. This will trigger a zoom scene with a mini-game.
  • Take the KEYS from your inventory and try them on the lock in the zoom scene. They will separate into three separate Keys.
  • There are three Keys on the left in the zoom scene. The trick is that you can use either end of them in the lock. Select the bottom Key (H) and rotate it so that you are inserting the end with three round posts into the lock. The lock will open and you will return to the main scene.
  • Once the gate is open, collect the WANTED POSTER (red).
  • Exit (G) to the Castle Hallway.
Robin's Quest
  • Two guards are talking. Their conversation is just for fun, you don’t have to listen to all of it.
  • Use the KNIFE on the crack in the wall on the right (I). A piece of the wall will come off and go into your inventory as the ROCK.
  • Use the ROCK on the right Window (J) and it will break. The guards will run outside.
  • Start to go through the door (K) and Friar Tuck will appear to help you. He will give you a very important piece of adv ice—you need to keep the townspeople on your side. This means that you should always help townspeople who ask for help.

Chapter 2: Sherwood Forest

Robin's Quest
  • Click on the Boy. He will offer to teach you archery. Accept.
  • Click on the Target on the tree. This will open the medallion of Special Abilities. Select the Arrow.
  • Center the bull’s-eye cursor on the Target. Hit the Target to complete your lesson.
  • Exit on the path (A) and go to the Gypsy Caravan.
Robin's Quest
  • Fire an Arrow at the Beehive. It will fall down, revealing GOLD COINS.
  • Enter the Gypsy Caravan (B).
  • This will trigger a conversation with the Gypsy. She will explain that you need to collect FIREFLIES to get extra hints.
  • Exit the zoom scene.
  • Exit to the Town Center (C).

Chapter 3: Town Center Notice Board

Robin's Quest
  • When you first arrive at the Town Center, you will notice several alternate pathways, the Baker standing outside his shop on the right, and the Notice Board on the left.
  • Collect the GOLD COINS from the Barrel on the right.
  • There are many possible exits from this scene, but for now stay in the Town Center.
  • The Notice Board (A) has optional activities. It’s a good way to earn gold.
  • Zoom in on the Notice Board and collect the WANTED POSTER.
  • At various points in the game you will see an announcement of an Archery Contest on the board.
  • Click on the announcement of the Archery contest so you can read more about it.
  • Whenever there is a new announcement of an Archery Contest, you will be able to play the game to earn gold.
  • 10 targets will display, one after another. Use your bow to shoot arrows at them.
  • Most targets are regular bull’s eye targets, but there are also some wooden animals that may show up: rabbits in the field, ducks and fish on the river, and birds in the air.
  • If you hear the man say “Shoot!” but then nothing seems to happen, search the scene carefully for one of the small wooden animal targets. These are easy to overlook.
  • At the end of the game, you will get your score, and can decide whether to accept it or try again.
  • You can enter each regular Contest only once, and then it will be stamped “Completed.” There are 6 of the regular Contests.
  • The Contests become progressively harder. All of them are optional—they’re just a way of earning more gold.
  • There is also a never-ending Challenge Round contest. You can enter this one as many times as you like, but you have to pay an entry fee each time.

Chapter 4: Back Alley Gate (Baker’s Quest)

  • Begin by talking to the Baker who is standing on the right side of the Town Center. He will explain to you that an evil lord has been overcharging the town for grain. He will ask for your help. You should agree to help him.
  • You will start the Quest by going back and forth between two locations, the Bakery and the Back Alley. Different activities will be available at different times, so stay alert for sparkles.
  • Go into the Bakery through the door to the right of the Baker.
Robin's Quest
  • Look out the window (F)--there are two guards there.
  • Exit to the Back Alley (A).
Robin's Quest
  • You will hear the guards talking about how they used to steal pies off the baker’s window.
  • Try talking to the Guards. They will tell you the exits are blocked until Robin Hood is found.
  • A new Task has been added to the upper left corner: get past the guards. Remember they liked to steal pies from the Baker’s window?
  • Return to the Bakery (G).
  • A Hidden Object Scene is now available in the Cabinet beneath the window (B).
Robin's Quest
  • Collect the items from the Find List, including the GEAR (9), CLOTH (7), and the pie ingredients: SUGAR (1), KNIFE (2), APPLES (3) WATER (4), EGG BEATER (5) CINNAMON SHAKER (6), ROLLING PIN (8), FLOUR (10) AND EGGS (11).
  • The INGREDIENTS will all automatically combine into one inventory slot. The CLOTH will go into the same slot as the CLOTH you collected in the Jail Cell, so now there are two CLOTHS in that slot.
  • The FISH is marked in cyan.
  • The Cherries are marked in pink.
  • Put the INGREDIENTS into the silver Pie Pan (C) on the table. This will trigger a mini-game.
Robin's Quest
  • Should the INGREDIENTS stick on your cursor, click once to get rid of them.
  • The order of the ingredients follows a pie recipe in 3 stages. First you will make the bottom crust, then you will cut the apples, then you will make the top crust.
  • If you make a mistake in any of the 3 stages, you will start over at the beginning of that stage.
  • Once you have completed all the ingredients, you will receive the RAW PIE in your inventory.
  • If you prefer, you can skip the game by clicking on the SOLVE Locket in the lower right once it opens to show the Key.
  • Put the RAW PIE in the upper part of the brick Oven (D).
  • Now you need wood. Exit to the Back Alley.
  • You see the WOOD (I), but you don’t want to just steal it. Go in the Door (H) just past the wood and talk to the man there. He will offer you some wood if you can scare away some crows. Agree.
Robin's Quest
  • The woodcutter mini-game will open up. Shoot the 4 Lanterns with arrows, and the Crows will be scared away.
  • The woodsmith will tell you you can take some wood. Collect the WOOD and return to the Bakery.
  • Put the WOOD in the lower Fireplace (E).
  • Remove the BAKED PIE and put it in the Window (F).
  • Exit to the Back Alley. The guards will smell the Pie and go over to the Window, leaving the gate unguarded.
  • Go through the Gate (J) to the Fields.

Chapter 5: the Fields (Baker’s Quest)

Robin's Quest
  • Collect the LAST PARDON piece for Friar Tuck if you’ve been following the walkthrough. If not, come back after you’ve collected the first 5 pieces. See the list at the end of the walkthrough if you need help finding them.
  • Talk to Friar Tuck. You will not be able to give him his pardon until after you’ve talked to him.
  • Once you have all 6 of his PARDON PIECES, they will go into your inventory tray. Give him his pardon. He will join your band, adding the power of persuasion.
  • Try the Dirt Heap (B) in the Field and the Plow (A). You’ll be able to dig up something there later. A new Task has been added in the upper left: “Find out what’s buried in the field.”
  • Enter the Barn (C).
Robin's Quest
  • Zoom in on the top of the Ladder to activate the Hayloft zoom scene. If you get the message “I should see what’s at the top of the ladder,” you didn’t click high enough. Position the cursor where it turns into a magnifying glass, then click there.
  • Collect the items from the Find List, including the two SILVER NUGGETS (pink), the KEY (G), the RAKE (F), and the HARNESS (E).
  • The HARNESS is made of wood and is on the left side of the scene.
  • After you complete the Hayloft Zoom Scene, you will be able to collect the LADDER (H) by clicking at the bottom of it.
  • Use the KEY to unlock the Bull’s Pen (I).
  • Put the HARNESS on the BULL (J) and collect the BULL.
  • Exit to the Fields, then to Duncan’s House (D) at the back of the Fields.
Robin's Quest
  • Duncan is the Lord who has been stealing from the Baker. Look through the Window (K) on the left and you will see him.
  • Put the LADDER against the right Window (L).
  • Shoot an arrow at the Nest at the top of the scene to collect GOLD COINS.
  • Put a CLOTH in each Chimney (M). You will have to place the LADDER before you can get to the Chimneys. If you don’t have the LADDER yet, go to the Barn.
  • Lord Duncan will come running out. Click anywhere in the door area (N). You don’t have to click exactly on him.
  • Lord Duncan will give you a SILVER ROD that is part of the lock to his Treasure Chest. He tells you the Blacksmith in the Market will be able to make another rod for you.
  • Exit to the Fields.
  • Attach the OX to the Plow (A) and it will dig up the field, revealing the Treasure Chest. You still need to make the third bar to unlock it, though, so return to the Town Center and click on the Market sign on the left side to go there.
Robin's Quest
  • Zoom in on the Blacksmith.
Robin's Quest
  • Once you have 2 SILVER NUGGETS from the Hayloft you can make the 2nd Silver Rod you need for Lord Duncan’s Treasure Chest.
  • Put the SILVER NUGGETS into the fire (2).
  • Use the TONGS (1) to take the silver out of the file and put it on the Anvil (3).
  • The Blacksmith will make the SILVER ROD (3). Collect it.
  • Go back to the Fields by going to the Town Center, then the Bakery, the Back Alley, and out to the Fields.
Robin's Quest
  • Zoom in on the Treasure Chest and place the SILVER RODS on it. If you cannot see the TREASURE CHEST in the field, you need to go into the Barn and get the OX so you can use the Plow to dig it up.
  • You must have two SILVER RODS in your inventory to open the TREASURE CHEST. Lord Duncan gave you one at Duncan’s House. You made the other in the Marketplace after you found 2 SILVER NUGGETS in the Hayloft.
  • Now you have to slide each rod by clicking on its far right end. You are trying to line up the words to make a rhyme:I am but CLAY the sinner PLEAD Who FED each vain DESIRE. Not only CLAY another SAID But WORSE for thou art MIRE.
  • The Treasure Chest will open. Click on the CROSS on the right.
  • You will automatically receive the BAKER’S TREASURE and the CROSS.
  • Exit to the Back Alley, the Bakery, and Town Center.
  • Give the BAKER’S TREASURE to the Baker, completing the Baker’s Quest.

Chapter 6: Open the Bell Tower (Priest’s Quest)

Robin's Quest
  • Now that you have Friar Tuck with you, talk to the Priest in front of the Church. Use the Persuasion Special Ability on him and he will let you in.

  • The yellow pieces look olive.
  • When all the pieces are set correctly, the panel will open revealing a CROSS. Collect it.
  • When you have collected everything, you will probably want to go through the Door to the Church Staircase. However, first you need to go back to the Market and see the Fish Vendor, as you need a Knife that he has.
  • Exit all the way to the Town Center, then click on the Market sign on the left to go there.
  • The Fish Vendor is in the righthand stall. Zoom in.
Robin's Quest
  • Put the FISH you have collected so far (from the Bakery and from the Church Aisle) on the Rag (1) on the left.
  • The Fish will be automatically laid out on the Counter (2).
  • Now anytime you want to trade you have to put your Fish in the left scale (3) until they equal the weight of the object on the right scale.
  • You can tell the weight is correct when the arrow on the scale (4) is pointing straight down.
  • The first object is a KNIFE. (5)
  • Put both FISH on the scale, then collect the KNIFE.
  • Go back to the Church Staircase.
Robin's Quest
  • Move the Tapestry (B) on the left, revealing a stone sticking out.
  • Use the KNIFE that you got from the Fish Vendor in the Market and remove the stone. This will reveal Flaming Arrows. Take them, and you will have the Burning Arrow Special Ability. You will also find the 4th CROSS you need to open the Church Basement Door.
  • Zoom in on the Door (C) you can see down the stairs to trigger a puzzle.
  • You need four CROSSES in order to unlock the door. There was one in Lord Duncan’s Treasure Chest in the Baker’s Quest, one in the Church Front Altar Puzzle, one in the Church Front Hidden Object Scene, and one behind the Tapestry in the Church Staircase.
  • Place the 4 CROSSES.
  • Click on each CROSS once. The door will unlock, and you will have access to the Church Basement.
Robin's Quest
  • Shoot an Arrow at the Lantern on the ceiling. It will fall down, revealing GOLD COINS.
  • Zoom in on the Bookcase (E) on the left. You need a BOOK to enter the secret room, but you don’t have it yet so you’ll have to come back later.
  • Go through the Archway (F) to the Church Basement Altar.
Robin's Quest
  • Notice the Symbols (G) at the very top of the Altar. You don’t have to do anything—just look at them. They will be copied to your Journal.
  • Zoom in on a puzzle (H) on the back of the Altar.
  • The pieces cannot be rotated.
  • Use the pieces to create a connected pipe with no dead ends.
  • The piece with no pipes can be used on the upper left. See the screenshot for our solution.
  • A line of Oil will descend from the ceiling, making a pool of Oil (I) on the Altar.
  • Take the EMPTY FLASK that you got from the Church Aisle Hidden Object scene and place it on the Altar. It will fill with oil and return to your inventory tray as a FLASK WITH OIL.
  • Zoom in on the gold Casket (J) at the back to open a Hidden Object Scene.

  • Collect the PARDON PIECES. You should now have all of Little John’s Pardon Pieces. Go back to the Church Front and give him his pardon. He will join your gang, adding the Special Ability of Strength.
  • Return to the Bell Tower Hatch.
  • Use the FLASK WITH OIL on the Trap Door (K) in the ceiling. You got the Oil in the Church Basement Altar.
  • Now you can use a Flaming Arrow on the Trapdoor. If you don’t have the Flaming Arrows yet, they’re in the Church Staircase behind the Tapestry.
  • This will clear the area.
  • Click on the open trapdoor (K) to enter the Bell Tower room.

Chapter 7: The Bishop’s Treasure (Priest’s Quest)

Robin's Quest
  • Once you have Little John with you, use the Strength Special Ability to lift the Bell on the right and collect GOLD COINS.
  • Pull the Bell Rings. One is broken.
  • Click on the right where the sparkles are to zoom in on a puzzle.
  • Use the GEARS from your inventory. See the screenshot for our solution. The LARGE GEAR is near the bottom, and the 3 SMALL GEARS are in a vertical line above it.

Robin's Quest
  • Zoom in on the left Bookcase.
  • Put the missing BOOK in place.
  • Remember the Symbols at the top of the Church Basement Altar? They are also in your Journal. Click on the Books that have the matching symbols: Sun, Star, Left-Facing Moon.
  • The Bookshelf will open revealing the TREASURE. Click to collect it.
  • Go back out to the Town Center.
  • Give the TREASURE to the Priest.
  • This ends the Priest’s Quest.

Chapter 8: Time Out for Gold

  • Once you have the Burning Arrow and Strength Power, you can go back to some previous scenes and pick up extra gold pieces.
  • All of these activities are optional, but the locations will not say AREA CLEAR until you’ve done them.
  • In the Field behind the Bakery use Burning Arrow on the Pile of Hay and collect GOLD COINS.
  • In the Barn, use Strength on the Anvil and collect GOLD COINS.
  • If you’re low on Hints, you can stop by the Gypsy Caravan and buy some Fireflies, otherwise continue to the Market for the next Quest.

Chapter 9: Start the Market Quest

Robin's Quest
  • Now that you have Little John with you, talk to the Farmwife at the left stall in the Market in the Market. She will tell you about a problem at the Docks. Agree to help her.
  • Before you go, stop at the Fish Vendor. You have two new Fish to sell from the Hidden Object Scene at the Church Basement Altar.
  • Trade the two FISH for the NET.
  • Now visit the Blacksmith.

  • Collect the items on the FIND LIST, including 3 Countries (pink), 3 PLANKS (cyan) and the ALPHABET DIAL (blue).

  • The “Sleeping Statue”(dark green) is seated with its eyes closed.
  • The ARM OF VISHNU is marked in light pink.
  • The “Rubies” (brown) are Gemstones. They can be any color.

  • Give him the PARDON PIECES and he will join your band, adding Music to your special Abilities.
  • Use Strength on the Barrel in the center to reveal GOLD COINS.
  • If you only have 5 PARDON PIECES for Alan a Dale, you probably missed the two in the Church Bell Tower. Go back to the Church, climb the stairs, and click on the trap door in the ceiling to climb through.
  • Continue on to the Ship Deck (C).

Chapter 11: The Ship

Robin's Quest

Robin's Quest
  • Use Strength to collect the GOLD COINS from under the Floorboard on the right.
