The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers (video Game) - Gameplay

Gameplay

The Two Towers allows players to portray Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas (although Isildur is playable on the first level then unlocked once players complete the Tower of Orthanc level), (Aragorn, Legolas, Gandalf, Frodo or Éowyn in the GBA version. Gimli is also unlockable in multi-player mode) in a series of missions, many taken directly from either The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring or The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Other missions, such as Fangorn Forest, are original pieces within the films' setting.

The Two Towers boasts many enemies from Goblins to Uruk-hai. Also Trolls and Wargs make their respective appearances through the progression of the game. The majority of levels end with a final more powerful boss enemy which the player must defeat. In the console version of the game, Merry and Pippin are not featured at all apart from cutscenes and references during the narration, and Sam has a few lines but is never shown onscreen. The game does not show Frodo and Sam's journey either. NPCs on the game include Gandalf the Grey, Gandalf the White, Frodo, Boromir, Elrond, and Haldir. These appear only in cutscenes or fight alongside your player during certain levels.
