Description
The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game
The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game is a cooperative adventure game in which the players attempt to complete a scenario, each with up to three heroes of their choice and a deck of allies, events and attachments to support them. Each round, players send their heroes and allies to quest or to fight with enemies that engage them. However, as the heroes and allies exhaust after questing, defending, or attacking, the players’ options are typically insufficient to deal with everything at once. Therefore, players need to determine whether it is more urgent to quest and make progress in the scenario while the enemy forces gain power, or to take down enemies while making no progress, not knowing what will come next.
The core set contains three scenarios, twelve famous heroes from the works of J.R.R. Tolkien (including Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Denethor, and Éowyn), and four pre-constructed player decks. Use one of these decks or construct your own to increase your chances of success and to explore new strategies.
The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game has over ten years of additional content. Campaign Expansions contain new scenarios for players to embark upon. Hero Expansions contain new heroes and new cards for players to use in their decks.
Although this game is set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth, most scenarios in the game do not represent scenes from The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings; rather, they are original scenes set in the 17 years between Bilbo’s 111th birthday and Frodo’s departure from the Shire, allowing players to create their own stories and adventures in Middle-earth.
