About this board game

The Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle-Earth is a fully cooperative, app-supported adventure game for 1–5 players, with games lasting about 120 minutes. Released in 2019, it invites players to take on the roles of heroes facing the evil that threatens Middle-earth.

Each game is one adventure within a larger campaign. Across these connected quests, you will explore the vast and dynamic landscapes of Middle-earth, face perilous challenges, and make courageous choices that help shape your journey.

The companion app guides your expedition as you uncover the world around you. It reveals locations such as looming forests, quiet clearings, and ancient halls, while also controlling the enemies encountered along the way.

  • Fully cooperative play: Work together with one to four other players against the threats facing the land.
  • Campaign-based adventures: Experience each game as part of a larger journey through Middle-earth.
  • Exploration and combat: Discover changing landscapes, use your skills, and battle villainous foes.
  • App-supported storytelling: Let the companion app reveal locations and manage the enemies you encounter.

Whether you venture into the wilderness alone or gather close companions around the table, every quest offers an opportunity to survive danger and advance the campaign. The combination of exploration, battle, and meaningful decisions brings a sense of adventure to every session.

In Journeys in Middle-Earth, your heroes travel through the storied hills and dales of Tolkien’s iconic world. Face the dark forces arrayed against you, strike a blow for the land, and write your own legend in the history of Middle-earth.
