The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King User Review

- Time Spent:
- 20 to 40 Hours
- The Bottom Line:
- "Worth playing"
The Lord of the Rings is known mostly for their award winning movies, but the video games can be just as good. In 2002, the Lord of the Rings released the Two Towers, which was actually a bit of a let down for me. It wasn't long enough and didn't make me feel the excitement like some of the other games I have. But one year later the Return of the King fixed all of those problems, and did even more.
The Two Towers was for 1 player, had only a handful of levels, Ok graphics, and a few glitches. The Return of the King is different from all of that. 2 player co-op, tons of levels, very improved graphics, and almost no glitches.
Co-op on the game was probably the best addition added. I enjoy working as a team better then working alone in this case. You still have all the levels that you would have in single player, but with even more enemies for you to kill. The graphics have improved a ton since the Two Towers, everything looks clearer and sharper.
The Lord of the Rings the Return of the King is definitely worth playing, even if you didn't like the prequel. I recommend it to any Lord of the Rings fan.
Overall I give it an 8.6 out of 10.

Based on the Novel book of the same name this game is an A-RPG (Action Role Playing Game) released in 1994 in US and 1995 in Europe. Your goal in the game is to do plenty of repetitive Fletch quests in order to recruit allies to your party.Posted Jun 15, 2011
