Lord of the Rings (Children's Version) review by Jabberwock[Inifnity Games UK]

A very straightforward but interesting and beautific looking game that is loved by my 6 year old as well as my 2.5 year old! The board follows the path of the book from Hobbiton to Mount Doom in a simplified fashion. Battling is done by means of a spinner (no hunting for enthisiastically thrown dice under the sofa!) and the kids love placing the nazgul so as to slow up their sibling's progress. Our experience so far is that every game is pretty close, although so far we have been playing the basic rather than the advanced game. Recommended.
