Jon Boden has revealed that he has contributed a song for the soundtrack to a text-based role-playing game (for iOS, Mac and PC) based around the legend of Robin Hood. Developed by Andrew G. Schneider, Nocked! True Tales of Robin Hood blends interactive fiction, resource management, and base-building against the backdrop of Sherwood Forest. Player choices have both dramatic and mechanical consequences that shape the framework of the Merry Men’s resistance against the Sheriff of Nottingham.
The track that Jon has contributed, “Living in the Greenwood”, is available via Bandcamp.
The individual track is available on Bandcamp along with the game’s full soundtrack here.
For the gamers out there Nocked! promises “20+ hours of gameplay incorporating a million words of text and 7,500+ unique narrative actions (That’s over ten novels worth of material). No single playthrough is the same; this is interactive fiction on an epic scale!” The game is available on iOS, Mac and PC here.
