Like many Bally-powered games, Lady Robin Hood started life as a live casino favourite - visually, it's reminiscent of a classic brick and mortar game. The reels have the look of medieval parchment and include lower value playing cards which sit alongside a money pouch full of coins, flagons of ale and goblets of wine, a sword and scabbard, a quiver full of arrows and Lady Robin Hood herself. You only need to land 2 of the sword, quiver or Lady Robin Hood to create a winning combination. There's also a standard wild that appears on reels 2 through 5.
The LRH logo is the scatter - land 3 of these anywhere on the reels and you'll receive a payout of double your total bet as well as triggering the Free Games Bonus feature and with it, 10 free spins.
As the free spins play out, you'll see a quartet of shields sitting above reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. Each shield comprises of 4 portions. Now you'll want to see the target symbol land - when it does, 1 of the segments on the shield above will be filled. Fill all 4 segments and the reel underneath will become wild for the remainder of the free spins. To help you on your way, you'll be awarded 3 targets before the free spins begin.
The other extra available in Lady Robin Hood is the Arrow Mystery Wild feature - on offer in the base game, a volley of arrows is fired at the reels and between 2 and 8 symbols can be turned into wilds. If a free spins symbol lands in a space where the new wild appears, it counts as both a wild and a scatter.
As far as variance goes, Lady Robin Hood lies somewhere in the middle - the Arrow Mystery Wilds help things along in the base game but the best opportunities come via the free spins where the coins can start to flow quickly if you're lucky enough to turn multiple reels wild.
Lady Robin Hood is a typically well-made brick and mortar conversion from Bally - featuring simple design and a pair of decent features, it's an entertaining spin on a classic tale. I also recommend you take a look at Robin Hood Shifting Riches by Net Entertainment which is often overlooked (and without reason).
