The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game reviews and comments

Early Access Review Unsuitable For Causal Gamers like me and I own The Original Game with several Extensions. No reasonable Tutorial, coupled new Game mechanics instead of simply adopting the neat LCG concept from the Original, especially since sometimes illogical, extremely lengthy, unfair or no simple Level of Difficulty is adjustable, for the over €40 I I have invested here, I have Access to about 40 different Cards-ridiculous, no further Development apparent. All in all a shit game, I should have bought real Card Packs for the Money and at the same time would have More Cards available (240 card/3 = 80 different) for a well-groomed Solo artist. Especially since I wonder anyway why you haven't digitized real multiplayer LCGs. All that remains Is Game of Thrones. But Arkham Horror would also be suitable for this Platform if the Mechanics were included.

Early Access Review The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game First has an incredibly long Name. ^^ Generally, however, it is a digital, story-driven Card Game, it is called no Ranked and no PvP. Instead, you have different PvE Quests that you can contest alone and in the Near Future in the Coop. The Game is to become completely Free to Play after the Early Access. With the Currency that can be played, you can unlock both new Cards and new Quests. Positive-Very good, set story to the Quests-Many well-known Hero Bplaces from Lord of the Rings-Unique Card Game Mechanics negative-extent of "grinding" (instead of Numbers) not quite recognizable yet-Relatively little Content for the Beginning (5 Quests to Start)-Extra Account registration on a Website The Game starts with a Tutorial explaining some Of the Mechanics of the Game to us. After that, you have to log on to a Website first, otherwise it won't go any further in the Game ... Then you get your first Starter Deck with some Starting Cards and the first Quest Series. There are Hero cards (E.g. Aragorn) and Allies (Creatures, gondo soldiers, etc.), equipment for the Heroes (E.g. Bilbo's Sword stitch), as well as Preparation cards that can act like Trap cards. The Opponent is usually Sauron, who, depending on the Quest, confronts another gloomy being (E.g. Spiders, Orcs, etc.). Particularly noteworthy is the high-quality Narrative style of the Quests. Normally, a real Story is told in English, such as a Trip by Bilbo with some Dwarfs (known from the Hobbit), which end in a Fighting situation in which we then have to play and reach a certain Quest Goal. Quest Targets are like Creatures on the Enemy side and must also be defeated, while Sauron hurls more and more Enemies at us. From time to time a Side goal also emerges that affects the Fight until we have swept it off the Pitch. After Hex: Shards of Fate in Terms Of PvE has disappointed the Fans, I have hope at this Game that it will involve a good Card Game with good History without competitive pressure. For those who just like to play a Card Game for Fun, the Game is, in my Opinion, definitely worth a Look. If You want a visual Impression of the Game, You can experience my first Experiences (the Tutorial) in this Game in the Video below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jvk8wswAaDQ
