About this expansion

The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game – The Hills of Emyn Muil is a 2011 Adventure Pack for 1–2 players, with an approximately 60-minute play time. It continues the hunt for Gollum as the heroes reach the hills of Emyn Muil after losing his trail at the Carrock and undertaking a mission of mercy at Rhosgobel.

As the fourth Adventure Pack in the Shadows of Mirkwood cycle, this expansion presents a focused new challenge for the heroes. The objective is clear: scour Emyn Muil, gather information, and determine Gollum’s whereabouts before it is too late.

The Hills of Emyn Muil includes 60 new cards for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game. Its central scenario features the first-ever single-card quest, asking players to gather victory points by exploring a wide range of dangerous locations.

  • A quest card and its related encounter cards
  • New Hero, Attachment, and Ally cards
  • Dangerous locations to explore while pursuing Gollum
  • New challenges designed to augment existing decks

Rather than following a broad sequence of quest cards, players must focus on exploration and victory points as they search the rugged hills. Every location forms part of the larger hunt, creating an engaging test for the heroes and their decks.

Whether you are continuing the cycle’s campaign or looking for fresh challenges for your existing decks, The Hills of Emyn Muil expands the card game with new content and a distinctive quest structure. Can you search the hills and discover Gollum’s whereabouts in time?
