unbelievably tense, smart and catchy... for those interested in JRR Tolkien's world game is largely satisfying.. even for those who only have seen lord of the rings trilogy the game is "real" embedded into the movies itself.. limited building and resources is the only thing lacking but when it comes to middle earth war numbers is not the case so.. no big deal... real time strategies have not been my favorite, i often prefer turn-based ones, like civ or even more calm no-battle ones like simcity etc... but this game caught me... i am not a fast mouse-clicker but i survived most of the scenarios in the end, with some raised heart beat rate of course... definitely good game, a classic-to-be in my opinion.. hope other games in same format regarding other studies of Tolkien will arise sometime...
