User Rating: 8.2 | The Hobbit PC
In my experience as a gamer, there are a few games that I go to when I feel down. This is one of them. With colorful graphics and delightful, non-bloody gameplay, I feel better after playing a few hours of this game. The music of the game, together with the happy-go-lucky atmosphere makes this game a joy to play, as a fun pastime. The game also closely follows the Tolkien's book, which happens to be my favorite story. Lastly, there is the scenery. Starting out with the cottages and bright sun of the Shire, going into the mountains and woods, then coming to the pleasant area of Laketown. Afterwards, my personal favorites, the Treasury of the Mountain, and the workings and view from the greathall. Finally, there is the last battle, afterwhich I felt sad inside, for the game had come to an end.
