J.R.R. Tolkien's Riders of Rohan

J.R.R. Tolkien's Riders of Rohan

31. December 1991

Summary

Another J.R.R. Tolkien based game, but specifically focused on the Two Towers story, starting right before the siege of Helm's Deep: the battle between the defending forces of Rohan and the attacking legions of the evil wizard Saruman. The game introduces a similiar style of play as War in Middle Earth, that is a macro-world map point of view which operates battles and movement of mass armies, and there's a micro point of view, a more 'action' approach where the original characters of the Fellowship can battle enemies at a smaller scale: shoot orcs from a ranged distance, fight them melee in an arcade fighting style or challenge them in a duel of magic.
