LOTR Fellowship of the Ring Trick-Taking Game - Games Unplugged Ticket

Brain Spice says: Trick-taking card games have received some well deserved attention by contemporary game designers over the past several years.  Early games like Fox in the Forest and Bottle Imp were remarkable for their innovation, but they were but a portent for what was to come.  Fellowship of the Ring TTG is a cooperative trick-taking game, in which all players are working together, trying to meet escalating challenges set in the rich narrative of Tolkien's epic.  It isn't the first highly successful cooperative trick-taking game.  But the clever interweaving of story, the beautiful card artwork, and the richly rewarding moments of shared success, make this game a joy and a triumph.  Relax into a card game that combines subtle strategy with a delightful world of beloved characters and the odd magic ring!
