Lord of the Rings: War in the North Reviews

The Lord of the Rings: War in the North is a fun but flawed experience. From a technical standpoint, it has good graphics and sound, but there nothing about it is utterly amazing. From a gameplay standpoint, the action is great, but the rather lengthy adventure begins to get a bit stale because of the lack of real enemy diversity and the flow from combat to exploration to combat.

Worth Playing

A solid action RPG with plenty of loot to collect. I really got a sense of Champions of Norrath the more I played it, and wanted to continue grinding, which is uncommon for me.

ZTGD

While it’s admirable that the team had opted to create an original story set alongside the events in the books, you’ll wish that they had attempted to take more risks with the project. The characters are bland and lifeless, and the combat, while fun at first, gets pretty repetitive before too long.
