Sherwood cover (1993) 🔗


This Slovakian-made Robin Hood game sure tries to cover all the Robin Hoods. Besides Kevin Costner on the title screen, the cover adds Patrick Bergin's interpretation from the British production that amazingly came out the same year as Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and even reaches all the way back to 1938 to bring Errol Flynn from The Adventures of Robin Hood back from the dead. The smaller scenes at the bottom are a bit harder to determine, but the Sherriff of Nottingham in the sword scene clearly shows features of Alan Rickman's portraial of the villain. The (presumably) Maid Marian is unidentified so far, but she definitely isn't from any of these films.
