Weapons each have specific abilities assigned such as points added or subtracted from the character’s attributes as payment for use, melee, critical or missile armor strengths, and range of attack. Points can also be assigned to attributes such as accuracy, courage (spirit), defense, strength and others. Points are earned, which can be assigned to skills such as healing, spells, different types of fighting techniques and defensive moves. The characters’ skill levels are built up as the game progresses, depending on successful fighting and weapon upgrades. The spirit points automatically refresh, so there’s no real penalty for this. However, spirit points can be traded for hit (health) points, so when a player’s character gets low on attack points, he/she can just hang around while the player replenishes them.
LORD OF THE RINGS TWO TOWERS GAMES PLUS
While there are plenty of health powerups to be earned by fighting, plus cauldrons of elixir here and there, these items can’t be stockpiled for later use. Cauldrons are sometimes available that will power up either the character’s spirit or hit points. All of these items are found by attacking either enemies or inanimate objects.
Items to collect include tons of weapons, health powerups and gems. Stores are scattered about for handy trading, but players will have to choose wisely, as the inventory only allows for eight items to be carried at any one time that are not in active use. Each character has their own peculiar strengths, such as Aragorn’s general toughness in battle, especially with his two-handed swordplay Eowyn’s brave heart which reduces the corruption level and her clever use of her shield Legolas’s renowned skill with a bow for ranged attacks Frodo’s expertise in sneaking around with the Ring and Gandalf’s many spells.Īlthough this is basically a slightly repetitive hack-n-slash game, the gameplay is surprisingly engaging it’s fun to wipe out an area, collect all the goodies and check out the character’s stats while upgrading the weapons. After defeating the game a few times playing as different characters, supposedly Gimli is unlocked for use in the multiplayer mode, although our family hasn’t gotten quite that far yet. Players can choose to play as either Eowyn, Gandalf, Frodo, Aragorn and Legolas.
Although lacking in side quests and characters to interact with, the excellent action and exploration aspects make up for this slight oversight in the overall game design.
