    Haven't had this much fun in a multiplayer in a long time. It's really solid, but can take a little time to unpack the tactical/strategic depth -- stick it around, it's worth the investment. A lot of the bad reviews seem like they were expecting a run/gun game, not a stealth team-based heist with consequences for losing map control, failing to time the final push, and punishing failureHaven't had this much fun in a multiplayer in a long time. It's really solid, but can take a little time to unpack the tactical/strategic depth -- stick it around, it's worth the investment. A lot of the bad reviews seem like they were expecting a run/gun game, not a stealth team-based heist with consequences for losing map control, failing to time the final push, and punishing failure to use stealth. There's a lot of depth packed into what seems like a deceptively simple game loop. Now in fairness there are a few rough patches, like match making, but the game play itself is tight. Full endorsement, and I only endorse excellent games.… Expand

    Good game, good mechanics, nice graphics, teamplay based coop/pve/Pvp. Every character has his strengths and weaknesses, good balanced. I played 40h and every character.
    I really hope for more content coming soon, that the game doesn‘t die.

    I enjoyed the atmosphere, assassination-based combat, enjoyable bow shooting mechanics, varied character classes, and cool maps. The whole concept is great, but Hood needed more work, because numerous minor flaws and a sole game mode make it look like an early access title. I also believe it was possible to squeeze much more out of this darker twist on the Robin Hood setting. It is not an excellent game right now, but it is enjoyable enough to be addictive, and I’m looking forward to future updates, hoping they will unlock Hood’s full potential. [08/2021, p.76]

    Hood: Outlaws & Legends is a PvPvE multiplayer game that is based on a potentially interesting idea but which, unfortunately, suffers from a superficial technical realization and obvious balance problems.

    Most baffling of all is the way each match concludes. [Issue#360, p.112]
