LEGO Lord of the Rings (PC) - Steam Key - EUROPE

Gameplay

The gameplay consists of classic elements known from other platform video games, where the player must often use special items to proceed further. There are several types of items available in the game, some of which can only be used by specific characters. While fighting characters can use both short and long range attacks.

Plot and characters

The game’s plot spans throughout all three films: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King, and features many characters seen on the screen, as well as those from the books, like Tom Bombadil, Glorfindel, Gloin and Radagast the Brown.

Reception
