In Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood , money is mainly used for mission objectives and a few optional purchases, not as a deep economy system. One forum post says the game’s money is “literally useless” after the ransom requirement, though it can also be used to buy blazons if you want to.

How it is used

  • Paying the ransom is the big mandatory use of money in the story.
  • Buying blazons is optional.
  • Outside that, money has very limited impact compared with the game’s stealth and mission goals.

Practical takeaway

If you are wondering whether to save up aggressively, the answer is mostly no: just keep enough for the ransom-related objective and any optional item you personally want. A FAQ and player discussion both support the idea that money is not a major long-term resource in this game.

Note

Some search results refer to Robin Hood: Sherwood Builders , which is a different game with a much stronger money economy, so don’t mix the two up.

TL;DR: In The Legend of Sherwood , money is mainly for the ransom and a few extras, not for a broader shop-and-upgrade system.
