Try out the Hobbit Rampage. It's pretty challenging.

Admittedly, it's the opposite of canon (cue giant wasps and polar bears) but it's still fantastically engaging, much better than all those other games I've tried. I got to level fifteen before dying. Nice gameplay

I've completed Hobbit Rampage now. It's easier if you shoot the boars and wasps.

As I said, I really like Hobbit Rampage. It's not like your average flash game in many respects. You have to use strategy as opposed to the usual "stab-stab-stab" kind of game. You have to figure out which weapon works best against each different foe, you have to manoeuvre to dodge enemies, you have to use logic to get from A to B and minimise health loss.

I give Hobbit Rampage 4.5 out of 5 Stars.

I just tried out "Angry Old Wizard". It was funny and fun! You have to try and kill Wraiths that are trying to kill you. And every now and then, for no apparent reson, a Hobbit runs by! It's hilariously funny! Try it out!

I got to level 11 of Battle for Gondor, too. Curse you, Demon of Minas Morgul! Curse youuuuu!!!

Angry Old Wizard is sort of odd, and I keep on dying. A little un-canonic with the pills falling from the sky and the ability to change the wizard's hair.

The "Dead Marshes" is kinda wierd. It's messed up, really messed up.
