Yeah, that was the one. I really liked it, it's brilliant. And I think it is
quite challenging for two players, at first I wondered if it's possible to get to the end at all. (Although on second try we - or Lommy Gamgee, respectively, after poor me heroically sacrificed myself to be eaten by Sauron
- made it almost to Mount Doom - although I think in the end, it's always "almost" and even one step closer makes a big difference.)

And then there is the latest in the set - Middle Earth Quest - a game set in the 17 year period between Bilbo's eleventy-first Birthday Party and the departure of Frodo and company on the Quest of the Ring. The characters are invented, but the situations which arise in the game are familiar. I have only played it a few times so far, but I am impressed with how well the game designers have brought to life a period which is really only referred to in the back story sections of LotR.

Hmm, that actually looks very interesting. I might as well try to get my hands on that.
And well, you may not be working for the company, but maybe you could ask them to give you some small reward after such large scale advertising
I agree with you, though. Most importantly of all for me, the games are not just movie-based.
P.S. Should we assign
SpM's return to the Shire...?
