Description

A parody of Robin Hood and Sherlock Holmes in one person, in Robin of Sherlock you find yourself in Sherwood forest where strange things are afoot. Dorothy has been mugged on the Yellow Brick Road, Watson is dead and there is a Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise around the corner. You as the titular hero have to find out who is behind all these sinister things

Robin of Sherlock is a traditional text adventure made using the Quill adventure generation software from Gilsoft. You tell the game what you want to do via a textual interface and the parser is based on a basic verb / noun input.
