Build a deck of iconic heroes and challenge the forces of Sauron in this thrilling tactical card game. Travel through famous locations, complete story-driven quests and forge a new legend of Middle-earth on your own or with a friend in cooperative mode. But beware: the Eye of Sauron is searching for you. If you draw his attention, all will be lost...
Answer the call of untold adventures, face the dark forces of Sauron and protect the Free Peoples of Middle-earth. Allies will gather, foes will arise and so your journey begins.
The time has come for you to form and lead your own fellowship of heroes through three immersive story-driven campaigns, each with its own unique narrative and challenges.
Pick three heroes from some of the most emblematic characters of Middle-earth and build your deck around their specific abilities and powers. Each Hero has one of four spheres of influence, Leadership, Lore, Spirit, or Tactics, allowing you to play specific reinforcement cards while in-game. Choose wisely when building your deck and make the most of each of your heroes to get an edge over your opponents during the immersive campaigns. Set in famous locations across Middle-earth, you will enjoy hours of gameplay and choices to write your own adventure that will be sung for ages to come.
While your journeys may contain great challenges, taking advantage of your heroes and decks will earn you victory in battle. Sometimes combining the strength of multiple champions from the same Sphere of Influence to increase its power can help you overcome the swarms of enemies that you will face. You might need to rely on your heroes’ Willpower to increase your Fate Pool and trigger powerful abilities that can turn the tide of battle. There are many ways to win, you must find the deck and strategy that works for your fellowship!
Every quest will require you to experiment with strategies as you confront more and more terrifying foes, ranging from Giant Spiders to powerful dragons, even hordes of powerful Orcs!

This game is good value when on special. It will run on most PCs even very old ones. It got 7.9 on Metacritic. If you like The Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit you will probably like this. The game is well presented with nice artwork and fully voiced narration with different voice actors for each character; there is quite a bit of story in some parts. Each campaign is split into a number of quests with a segment of story for each, these are somewhat derivative from the books. You don't need any experience playing computer card games to play this, but you will need to complete the fairly comprehensive and lengthy tutorials to learn the game. It's a good game to get into playing computer card games as its much easier to learn and much less complex than Magic the Gathering. Gameplay gets more difficult as you progress, some players say it has a steep learning curve. There are two game difficulty levels. You can design your own deck before starting a campaign, go to https://digital.ringsdb.com/ for recommended decks. There is no game wiki, but there are Youtube tutorials and I found a good single player game guide on Steam. Some campaigns can definitely be quite difficult, and …1 found this helpful
what a pleasent surprise of a game that i did not excpect. they pictures of the characters look NOT! familiar @ all but u can swap them out with alternative art so did a good part on that, the music during deckbuilding and some soundeffects do get boring pretty quickly. you have a wide barrage of option to tackle the card challanges ahead that will trigger your turbo autism to craft a nice well done deck. the rohan szenario was superb! and it overall a nice game to waste my time in. good job!1 found this helpful
10/10 game. So sad that it died before it was finished. Example: There are anti-dragon cards that you can get in galadriel’s mirror missions, but there are no dragons in the game. Also half of the playable cards are locked to story missions and not available in the deck builder. Also, the English translation of the game is criminally bad. They seriously needed to have spent more than $3.50 on the localization.
Really good. The campaigns make this whole thing more than just a card game.
Idk what to say...only that I don't usually play card games and that I love this one! I just wish there was a better interface for the deck building section, ie being able to organise my deck into sections like ally cards, attachments and events.
the game has a few interesting ideas but the scenario design and balancing is so bad.. normal is super easy and hard is very particular. also i did a non campaign specifically design mission last and it felt super awkward to play. like someone came up with it but did 0 testing.
