A fun, surprisingly deep fighter set in the Lord of the Rings universe.
The fighting is easy to get used to, and once you master the crunching combos and reversals, some of which have very cool animations, are very satisfying indeed. They are easy to pull of with two main attack buttons, fast, and strong, and a kick move that pushes enemies back, which can all be combined to make seamless combos. it is surprisingly deep, and even though you can't put together you rown combos, there is more than enough to choose from.
The graphics and sound are very strong. It can get dozens of enemies on screen at times with the bare minimum of slowdown. The spell effects look pretty nice and in one particularly cool level, you can see Minas Tirith burning in the background as you fight your way to it. The sound is of the same high quality, with every swing and orc scream sounding crisp and clear. There isn't a great deal to do once you've finished the game, other than a few rather cool secrets which i wont spoil for you.
If you are looking for a fun Lord of the Rings hack 'n slash, look no further. a great game.
