Robin Hood

Robin Hood is a snakes and ladders variant with a little twist. At the start of the game you choose your character. Characters are homeomorphic animals from Robin Hood's gang. And then there is Sheriff of Nottingham, that all players may move. On your turn you roll two dice and move your character forward that many spaces. If you happen to land on green space you clime forward (ladder). If you happen to land on red space you have to clime down (rope). First player in the Nottingham Castle wins the game. The twist in the game is the Sheriff of Nottingham. At the start of your turn you can decide to move the Sheriff. You can move the Sheriff with one or both of your dice. Sheriff can move forward or backward as many spaces as the di(c)e shows. If Sheriff lands on any players character, then that character goes backward to the previous sword space. So at the start of your turn you decide how you use your dice. Both to your own characters movement or one to Sheriff and one to your own character or both to the Sheriff. The art in the game board and the characters is made by famous Finnish cartoonist Mauri Kunnas.
