About this product

Product Information

In this adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's beloved stories, players embark on a quest that will lead them through the events of all three films, in the roles of custom characters they create. Developed by EA's Redwood Shores studio, Lord of the Rings: The Third Age separates itself from its predecessors with its turn-based RPG format -- it has been noted by designers that those who have played Final Fantasy should find the system familiar. Also notable is the ability to ride a horse or a warg in combat, both of which demand special skills.<br><br>Visiting locations from all three movies, such as Khazad Dum, Helm's Deep, Osgiliath, and Minas Tirith, players will interact with both heroes and villains as they travel across Middle-earth. At times, they will encounter scenarios that may tempt them to cross over from the side of Good, and join the forces of the evil Sauron. Aside from the main storyline, optional side quests are included, designed to allow players a more personalized experience with the game.

  • Story is not that great, but Gameplay is fun! Must buy for LOTR movie fans!

    Although the story is a bit lacking in originality, and with scenes very jumpy, making it a bit confusing when an encounter happens, the gameplay is pretty fun! You follow in the footsteps of the Fellowship, with different characters forming a different group, and help pave a path for the Fellowship to accomplish its mission in this turn-based LOTR RPG (same style as Final Fantasy). The game follows the movie trilogy, and it's pretty fun to explore, so to speak, for the game is linear, Peter Jackson's vision of Middle-Earth, which, to me, looks and sounds better than LOTR games based directly off the books, even the newer title and its sequel. This game is definitely worth the money, especially at the price it is now, if you like fun and challenging games. Even though I keep expecting the game to get easier as I progress through the game, it adjusts the difficulty accordingly as you continue playing the game, giving me a run for my money, on the "Hard" difficulty (something I find rare, especially amongst recent games). This is a great and fun game, and I recommend you buy it, especially if you're a fan of LOTR and its movies.

  • A fun, older RPG.

    A great older game if you’re a fan of RPGs. Inclusion of clips from the movies and great voice-overs returned me to plenty of nostalgic memories.
