Fun coop game with lots of storytelling
5 out of 5 stars
Cecily - 4 years ago
Really enjoyed this coop game. We played all the way through the first two campaigns. A single game can be anywhere from 45 to 90 minutes (two players), so it doesn't take the time commitment of some other story games. Some of the upgrades you get over the course of the campaign make you feel super powerful, and the challenge level rises right along with it. The storytelling is fine in the first campaign (this one) and gets better in the second (not included here).
Disappointing

I really wanted to like this game, but it falls short. The missions don't feel very thematic to Lord of the Rings, other than the characters you play. The missions feel repetitive, there wasn't a lot of choice each turn (flip your cards and hope you succeeded, mostly), and your character doesn't grow very much over the campaign. The battle maps are weirdly small and don't leave a lot of room for strategic combat. If you are just after a great Lord of the Rings game, check out the Lord of the Rings Living Card Game. It plays differently, but it has much more of the feel of a Lord of the Rings game, because the missions you play are familiar to you and it has more recognizable enemies and characters. If you want an excellent strategy tabletop RPG, Gloomhaven is a much, much better version of this game. Check out Gloomhaven Jaws of the Lion if you are new to that franchise. If you've already played Gloomhaven, this game will be a disappointment in comparison, and the LotR theme doesn't make up for it.
One of the best co-op games out there

The box came damaged pretty badly in one of the corners, which is a bummer, but obviously has no effect on how the game plays. The game does require a free app download to play, so make sure you understand that before going in on this purchase. All that being said, the game plays super well and is a ton of fun. If you're a strategic player, there are multiple ways to get through this game with different characters that offer unique traits. The campaign of the game starts off rather simple, but as you progress new elements are added, making it a pretty versatile experience. One of the best co-op games out there.
