Gangs of Sherwood

"A nice game with an interesting world and story that could really use some quality-of-life updates and a price reduction."

"Gangs of Sherwood promises an abundance of enjoyment with its extensive array of specialised moves designed for all four playable characters and a combat system that is both enjoyable and addictive. However, the game grapples with a relatively thin and …"

"Despite Gangs of Sherwood’s shortcomings, the multiplayer mode is enjoyable, the puppet narration is entertaining, and the combat is top-notch. It may be too difficult to achieve high-style grades while on your own. This could be a great addition to …"

"I&s;m quite disappointed by Gangs of Sherwood, as despite looking and sounding great on paper, the presentation is low-end, the voice acting is alarming, and the environments are rudimentary."

"Offering a versatile experience, with a focus on action and missions divided into acts, Gangs of Sherwood stands out for its simplicity and brings with it elements of character evolution. Despite the small fonts of the subtitles and the less …"

"Gangs of Sherwood is a disappointing game with a short campaign, repetitive combat, and limited accessibility options"

"From a gameplay perspective, Gangs of Sherwood breaks little in the way of new ground. But thanks to the talent of its developer, an eye for creative world design, and the classic, swashbuckling spirit of yesteryear, this plucky bout of …"

"Gangs of Sherwood quickly showed signs of promise with its fun spin on the classic Robin Hood tale and colourful combat but fell flat about halfway to the finish line with its lack of depth in certain areas (looting) and …"

"I recommend it for the online play, but as a single-player experience I would stay far away."

"When the game opens up a bit, the combat is a lot of fun and there are plenty of scenarios to experience that keep the action varied. Don’t come for a story, but do expect some high-energy spectacle and wild …"

"Gangs of Sherwood is a fun sleeper title that features great combat and characters. I enjoyed playing through each hero and seeing their unique abilities at play. With great level design, plenty of secrets, and replay value, especially when playing …"

"The Gangs of Sherwood had a lot of potential, whether because of the cooperation, the alternate world, or simply because of Robin Hood&s;s big name. But it failed. Not significantly, but it failed. The title&s;s main flaw is its very …"

"The outlaws fighting the Sheriff of Nottingham, even in the modern conception, have failed to make a significant impact and are pulling the short end of the rope. Only time will tell if the game will eventually find enough fans."

"Gangs of Sherwood surprised me by rolling its credits a few short hours after starting, but it wasn’t the brevity I found surprising - it was the fact people were willing to attach their names to what they’d done. As …"

"Gangs of Sherwood is exactly what it needs to be: fun for everyone playing it. It&s;s definitely a game you&s;ll want to play with friends for the best possible experience though, so do keep that in mind if you&s;re more …"

"Gangs of Sherwood is somewhat ambitious, but short and contains basically no replayability."

"Gangs of Sherwood was fun for 15 minutes. Every second after that was a dreadful monotony that I cannot recommend to anyone living or dead."

"Gangs of Sherwood offers a lot of replay value with its fantastic action sequences, excellent character and enemy design, and big boss encounters. The story and the character interactions between the gang and enemies are really good."

"In its own way, Gangs of Sherwood is a very focused game. The fights are entertaining, and the four characters are very well delineated from each other. It&s;s fun to learn the combos and finish each fight in the most …"

"With excellent characters, great gameplay, and a fun setting, Gangs of Sherwood is one of the best beat &s;em ups in recent years."

"Gangs of Sherwood certainly isn&s;t the deepest or most convoluted game on the planet, but it never pretends to be anything more than it is; a game made to be enjoyed with friends with a simplistic premise. It is genuinely …"

"There&s;s an enjoyable time to be had Gangs of Sherwood, especially with others, but it just doesn&s;t do anything well enough to stand out from the crowd."

"Gangs of Sherwood offers an enjoyable and silly co-op action experience that mostly gets things right."

"There&s;s something here that could have been brilliant. With just a little more time in the oven to give more variety in missions, a more interesting skill set and more different enemies, this could have been a fun game to …"

"With a shiny presentation and swashbuckling charm, Gangs of Sherwood portends to be more than your average co-op title. Unfortunately, it turns the legendary outlaw&s;s tale into even less than a placeholder beat &s;em up."

"Pick up Gangs of Sherwood and you might get a few hours of entertainment out of it, especially if you play it with friends. Ultimately, though, this is a mediocre action game with a litany of issues ranging from unbalanced …"

"Gangs of Sherwood shows initial promise with its creative setting and colourful combat but runs out of steam well before the end of its already brief running time."

"As a co-op gang party, Gangs of Sherwood can provide you with a few hours of fun that offers a fresh and exciting take on the legend of Robin Hood. But as a Single-player experience, it is a tough sell. …"

"There is fun to be had in Gangs of Sherwood but it is really only found playing multiplayer either with friends or strangers. Not only does this make each act not feel as long, since there will be more people …"

"This doesn’t beat anything out there but it does offer a decent fighting game with a unique twist on a classic Nottingham legend."

"Gangs of Sherwood not only pays homage to the legend of Robin Hood but also sets a new standard for narrative-driven gameplay, strategic depth, and immersive world-building. With its captivating visuals, engaging gameplay mechanics, and a narrative that responds to …"

"A very basic cooperative action game without any fresh or interesting ideas. It is commendable that the authors tried not just to repeat the legends of Robin Hood, but came up with steampunk versions of them, but otherwise the game …"
