And for the moment, that’s very precious.We are finally getting a closer look at the tale within Daedalic Entertainment and NACON’s upcoming video game adaptation of Sméagol’s, I mean Gollum’s, journey in The Lord of the Rings. LOTR: Gollum may not be the next Shadow of Mordor-style hit, but Daedalic has promised that if the game does well, two other character-centric LOTR adventures could follow. (The Third Age and Battle for Middle-earth) come to mind. Lord of the Rings games have always been a bit of a mixed bag, although a lot of them have wound up as cult favorites over the years. But your choices can affect the story as the game progresses. This isn't a strict evil/good binary, however Gollum remains a little twisted and fearful, no matter what you do. Parkour platforming will also help Gollum get from place to place, and players will have to decide whether they prefer long-way-around platforming challenges, or a more direct path that might bring them in close contact with deadly enemies.įinally, players will have to make personality choices, depending on whether they want to tackle certain problems in a conniving "Gollum" manner, or an evasive "Sméagol" manner. While Gollum can kill unsuspecting enemies by sneaking up on them, doing so takes a long time, and isn't viable in every situation. Instead, players will have to explore the game's large levels thoroughly, looking for ways to evade enemies, whether by sneaking past them or finding alternate routes entirely. Tom's Guide saw an extended preview of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, where we got a good sense of the stealth gameplay, vertical platforming and open-ended exploration.įirst off, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum does not feature any combat, as any denizen of Mordor could thrash the titular hobbit easily.
