The cast of medieval Merry Men turn out for Atomic Planet's conversion
of classic 80s remake for Cinemaware and Capcom.
Defender of the Crown, once a classic 1980s action/strategy
game, is now reproduced for a modern gaming market, with new technologies
at hand and superb playability the result.
It is a terrible time in England. The rightful King
Richard the Lionheart is being held for ransom in a foreign cell,
and the evil Prince John has claimed the throne for himself. Civil
war ensues, and only Robin Hood - the feared outlaw from Nottingham
- can save the day by uniting the people of England and saving them
from the tyranny of John.
Join Robin Hood's familiar cast of Sherwood Forest
regulars, including Maid Marian, Will Scarlet, Little John, the
evil Sheriff of Nottingham, Friar Tuck, and many more. Fight in
jousts, archery and peasantry. Create fantastic battle campaigns
to win over the counties of England.
The original Cinemaware classic, released on the
Commodore Amiga in 1986, sold over a million copies.
