(More customer reviews)This game's excellent. It's EZ & fun & gripping but it's quite long! I don't mind this but some others might.
This game simulates the 17-year period between Bilbo's 111th b-day & Gandalf "taking" Frodo out of the Shire...
This game is supposedly for 5 players but can be enjoyed with only 2 - which I have!
One player plays Sauron & it's minions & the other(s) play hero/es gathered by Gandalf to stop him from finding the Ring before Gandalf does (& thusly the Lord of the Rings actually begins).
The Sauron player actively blocks the questing heroes with his plots & perils & monsters. If Sauron's plots come to fruition (with a great mechanic) the War of the Ring doesn't even start because he found it!
If the hero/es win, concluding the quests, blocking Sauron's plots & schemes, then, all the events in the book can proceed to it's fateful conclusion - Middle-earth is saved!
Seems like a hefty price for a game but, believe me, it is worth it, even just for the quality on the whole. The rules are beautifully laid (concise & awful good to read), the art is superb, the craftmanship of the game is excellent; however, about the highly detailed figures - there was one faulty batch (too brittle) - however, no worries, as Fantasy flight Games (the manufacturers) will replace them for free!
I wholeheartly recommend it for most all fans & non fans, ages from 10 onwards!
Game on!

Middle Earth Quest takes place approximately ten years after Bilbo Baggins leaves the Shire, and several years before Frodo leaves Bag End on his journey leading to the destruction of the One Ring. Thus, Middle Earth Quest will take place in a time of growing darkness. Players will take control of characters such as a rare adventurous Hobbit, a Gondorian Captain, a Rider from the Westfold, or numerous other character types. Not only will characters be able to experience new adventure in Middle Earth, but we will carefully seek to tie in the experience with the massive amounts of lore and story that takes place around the edges of the central THE LORD OF THE RINGS storyline. Middle-earth Quest is a game of adventure and conflict set in the time leading up to the creation of the Fellowship. One player will adopt the mantle of Sauron and do his best to spread his evil influence across the lands. Up to three players become heroes and will do their best to foil Sauron's foul plots, and rally the peoples of Middle-earth to their side.
