"Warner Bros has been quietly in the shadows with the video game rights to Lord of the Rings. In the past EA has held onto the IP and produced some games along the way. Jump to 2010 and the rights seemed to have fallen into the lap of Warner Home Video Games. After seeing EA hit a brick wall with their take on the movie adaption, Warner Bros decided to revamp the game completely and go with a softer kiddie style then the RPG and next gen graphics of EA’s titles."

Aragorn’s Quest is based on Tolkien’s work and lets you guide the aforementioned hero as he battles the minions of Sauron. Your purpose is to reach the Black Gate of Mordor so that Frodo throws the magical ring of the evil wizard into the lava of Mount Doom and destroys it once and for all.
