Each player controls two characters with unique abilities, moving, fighting, cooperating and preparing for decisive moments. Frodo stands at the center of the action, protected by his comrades, as he makes his way into the heart of Mordor, while the rest of the group must deal with the advancing forces of evil. Your goal is to complete several story quests that gradually lead you to the final goal, the destruction of the Ring in Mount Doom.

Stand up to the growing Shadow
The course of the game, Lord of the Rings: The fate of the community changes dynamically as players respond to challenges and as the situation on the map evolves.

This has a direct impact on the level of hope that represents the moral state of the Society. If the chance drops to zero, the game ends in defeat.
