Asmodee The Lord of The Rings The Fellowship of The Ring Trick-Taking Game - A Cooperative Card Adventure! Strategy Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 10+, 1-4 Players, 20 Minute Playtime

This is a seriously great game.It's simple to learn (if you know how to play other trick-taking games like Spades or Hearts, you're 90% of the way there). It's Cooperative, so everyone wins or loses together. Setup time is minimal. Space needed is minimal. You don't need knowledge of Lord of the Rings to enjoy it (though it would enhance your enjoyment). The game is strategic without taking a huge amount of time. The stained-glass style art is great. And most importantly, it's a huge amount of fun.I have a huge amount of board games and heartily recommend this to anyone who seems remotely interested. Also would make a good gift. (If you like this, check out The Crew, and The Gang as well)My only suggestion is to pick up some card sleeves on the side because it could see a lot of play and sleeves would protect it's value.

This easy to play and pleasantly cooperative card game gives players an opportunity to go through the classic story of the Lord of the Rings in trick-taking fashion, working together to tell the story of the fellowship of the ring. The game is full of clever mechanisms to introduce characters each round of play across a campaign that tells the story and gives players the opportunity to work together to make the way through this wonderful book. You’ll get a lot of play out of this and it’s a great price for beautifully appointed cards.

This is SO FUN!I love that it's basically just Hearts, so it's easy enough to learn, but the twists of playing different characters and working together for different character goals makes the game so much more interesting. Definitely a challenge at times! But just so fun to play through the story and be your favorite characters.

There are so many LOTR themed games out there and I am so glad to have tried this one first! Got as a gift that he immediately wanted to play.Two of us have played the first four chapters so far (I think there are 18, then continued gameplay after you finish those). It would definitelyyy be better with 3-4 people, but still fun with just 2.Quick to setup and learn, esp if you are familiar with trick taking games.Good quality game pieces, easy to understand instruction booklet, really pretty art, thoughtfully incorporates the LOTR story instead of just adding LOTR characters onto an unrelated game. I was not expecting such a quality product at this price, since so many other LOTR games cost double. This makes a great, afforable gift for any Lord of the Rings fan!

I am very impressed by this game - it’s cooperative, it plays quickly, and it changes each round. It takes some cleverness to play well, and there’s an element of luck. I played it with friends and really enjoyed it.However, none of my family really enjoyed it. I bought it thinking they all would, but I was wrong.

The game is top-notch both in presentation, production, and actual gameplay.I brought the game to a 4-person gathering to run through it as a demo and we ended up playing it back-to-back for several hours, always wanting to push through one more scenario.The card art is a faux stained glass style and wooden components are very welcome over traditional cardboard counters.My only criticism is that it is a challenge to repack the cards into the small box if you have put the cards into thick protective sleeves. But it's possible.

My husband and I love this game! It takes you through the story and we’re able to play a trick or 2 at a time, save our place, and come back to it again later. Recommend!

Are you a fan of hearts or other truck take games? Do you love The Lord of the Rings? This is the game for you.I've played a variety of trick taker games throughout my life. It started with hearts because my dad loves the game. I've never played a trick taker where you are working with the other players.This is a cooperative game played over multiple rounds. Each round takes you though the story of the Fellowship of the Ring. At the start of the round, you choose a character that fits with the story of that round. Those characters each have specific goals that you need to accomplish to complete the round. For example, Frodo needs to take four ring cards. On top of character goals, many chapters have a specific goal you need to accomplish as well.My wife and I are still making our way through the story, but we love sitting down for a few rounds at night to try and move on to the next chapters. I highly recommend this game!

Amazing trick taking game. I highly recommend this to anyone. Board gamer or not. Easy to understand and great fun to play

The first thing I want to highlight is the production quality.The cards are beautifully printed, with clear artwork and very pleasant card stock — they feel great in your hands. The tokens are also well made and sturdy, and overall the components give a strong impression of a premium, carefully produced game. From a physical standpoint, it’s a real pleasure to play.As for the gameplay, I personally find it just as interesting and engaging as The Crew. If you enjoy cooperative trick-taking games, this one definitely deserves your attention. That said, instead of going into detailed rules or explanations here, I’d recommend checking out online reviews or playthrough videos — they do a much better job of showing how the game flows and why it works.Overall, this is a very well-made game with a solid and enjoyable core mechanic, especially for fans of trick-taking and cooperative card games.

Juegazo!! Lo estoy disfrutando en grandes en modo solitario! Amo los juegos de tomar trucos y este a sido un deleite! Si o si me llevo la secuela y si o si cómpralo! Y ni soy fan del señor de los anillos eh!

Fantastic game, all in perfect condition, loved artwork, great for LOTR fans
