Lord of the Rings Needs Its Own 'Hogwarts Legacy' Game
For many years, different game developers have made their own takes on The Lord of the Rings. Tolkein's highly influential fantasy novel is certainly rich material for video game design; its long, rich narrative is perfect for an intense action-adventure game or an RPG. Some developers have retold The Lord of the Rings directly, while others have crafted original characters in the world of Middle-earth, and each of these games builds on the world in their own way. However, there's a different style of game that The Lord of the Rings rarely inspires. Few games allow players to craft their own character and explore Middle-earth on their own terms.
