Overview

Robin Hood has vanished into Nottingham, and you are Maid Marian, the only one brave enough to find him. Follow clues through 13 legendary landmarks on this self-guided puzzle walk through the city where the outlaw legend was born.

Your search takes you from the Medieval marketplace where Robin entered in disguise, past the courthouse where hangings once drew crowds, and into three historic pubs each claiming to be the oldest in England. Decode puzzles at St. Mary's Church, mentioned in the earliest Robin Hood ballad (c. 1450).

Descend into secret caves via Mortimer's Hole, outsmart the Sheriff in Old Market Square, and storm the castle to rescue Robin, uncovering centuries of real history at every stop.

A Medieval adventure where you are the hero, not the sidekick. Perfect for history lovers, puzzle fans, and anyone who wants to live the Robin Hood legend.

Play anytime at your own pace using the Questo app. Allow around 80 minutes for the full quest.

  • Play as Maid Marian in an original Medieval rescue storyline
  • Play anytime, pause and resume, go at your own pace
