[h3]๐Ÿ“ฃ Hello, Sherwood Builders! ๐Ÿน[/h3] [b]Our free prologue, Robin Hood - Sherwood Builders - Bandit's Trail, is getting a major update soon! Join us for a live broadcast on February 22nd at 9:00 AM EST / 2:00 PM UTC on update day when we feature live gameplay from the prologue![/b] The broadcast will appear on the prologue's Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2465830/Robin_Hood__Sherwood_Builders__Bandits_Trail/ No game that features open-world exploration can do without a variety of interesting places for the player to discover and investigate. As outlaws of the Merry Men, we know very well about Robin Hood's Village, hidden away from the Sheriff and Crown's prying eyes. [b]But what is there beyond Robin's Village, in the vast world ripe for adventure?[/b] So let's talk about how we make things interesting in Robin Hood: Sherwood Builders through exploring locations! [h3]Environments[/h3] To maintain variety in the game's world, we've introduced all sorts of natural settings into it, including: [list] [*] Verdant forests, dense with all manner of foliage [*] Rolling hills and fields stretching as far as the eye can see [*] English moors in full bloom [*] Treacherous swamps for the most daring adventurer [*] Well-travelled rocky tracts filled with opportunity for the industrious outlaw [*] Dark tunnels winding deep into the underground [/list] Different environments are not only pleasing to the eye, but also significant to the gameplay. [b]Depending on where you travel, you can find different resources to harvest.[/b] Make sure to explore and discover more information about them through in-game readables!

These include: [list] [*] Barnsdale [*] Peak District [*] Sherwood Forest [*] Midlands [/list] The goal of Robin's quest is to put an end to the Sheriff's tyranny, but he cannot manage it alone. Though he has his Merry Men at his side, he'll still need help from the rightful rulers of the Regions, similarly threatened by the Crown's cruelty. Robin gains [b]Reputation[/b], specific to each of these Regions, by completing quests and helping the people. Once he has enough, he can rally the leaders of the Regions to his cause and fulfil his dream of freedom for all.

[h3]Locations[/h3] Without going into too much detail so as not to spoil the different quests and the outcomes of their stories, [b]the diverse places you'll get to visit in Sherwood Builders will be a stage for its numerous events.[/b] To make a list once more, expect such locations as: [list] [*] Idyllic villages [*] Quaint farms [*] Bandit camps [*] Regal castles [*] Lone ruins signifying a distant past [*] The city of Nottingham itself [*] And many others!
