Lord of The Rings: Game One

Lord of the Rings: Game One (released in North America as The Fellowship of the Ring Software Adventure) is a computer game released in 1985 and based on the book The Fellowship of the Ring, by J. R. R. Tolkien. It was the follow-up to the 1982 game The Hobbit, although did not reach the same level of critical and commercial success as its predecessor, and is considered inferior by the gaming community, with many complaining about the removal of the real-time aspects and complex AI patterns of the previous game, and puzzles that lacked coherent solutions.

Famous quotes containing the words lord of, lord and/or game:

    These are thy wonders, Lord of power,
    Killing and quickning, bringing down to hell
    And up to heaven in an houre;
    Making a chiming of a passing-bell.
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    Lord Bateman was a noble lord,
    A noble lord of high degree,
    Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 1–2)

    The chess-board is the world; the pieces are the phenomena of the universe; the rules of the game are what we call the laws of Nature. The player on the other side is hidden from us. We know that his play is always fair, just, and patient. But also we know, to our cost, that he never overlooks a mistake, or makes the smallest allowance for ignorance.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
