Emphasis on “if done well”.īecause The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is not done well. So this premise, if done well, could have been a fantastic little companion piece to the novel (singular, Lord of the Rings is one book, not three, per Tolkien himself), an extended prologue of sorts. In the books, Gollum’s journey is much more eventful, important, and brought together several members of the Fellowship before they gather later in Imladris. Gollum’s portrayal in the Lord of the Rings movies is iconic, but it’s only a small part of his story. Why make a Gollum game? What’s interesting about that? What could you possibly do with that premise? My answer to those questions is: read the book. Gollum features an underused decision system that has no impact on narrative or gameplay outside getting two achievements.įrom its announcement, this game’s very existence has been questioned.
