This game is fantastic. In keeping with the LEGO-ization spirit, it is fun and fanciful, yet it definitely adheres to the source material. While visually (and in some cases, plot-wise) it borrows more from the films, there are some inclusions for the book lovers as well, including a "cameo" of sorts by Tom B, as well as a few references to the Hobbit. With side quests and hidden items and characters, this will keep you entertained for hours. :) **Note: this game ONLY covers Fellowship-Return of the King. If it is in the movies, it is probably here; if it did not make those films, I wouldn't count on them appearing.

After having played the DS and 3DS version of this game I give the 3DS version 5 stars this game is really incredible especially when you turn the 3D slider on it really does bring the graphics of the characters,scenery they all look really awesome. On my 3DS XL I keep mine relatively low since looking things in 3D can really mess with my vision. So I usually keep my 3DS games in 3D mode for a short period of time then I turn it off. While I notice that when compared to the DS version the games are really no different, at least from what I notice. Though I do like the camera view better on the 3DS version because the angle adjustment is better when say your Legolas and trying to shoot something whether it's a target or an antagonist character etc it is a lot better. As far as the game goes when the 3D is on it looks spectacular. Graphically this game is sharper and better to look at, not as many pixels in the 3DS version in comparison to the DS version where there is a majority of pixelation. So in terms of pixels the 3DS is truly a successor to the DS version. It also looks awesome in its 2D format when the 3D is off its still sharp. I do notice however if I don't have the 3D on the image looks brighter even if I have the brightness on its dimmest setting and power saving mode off and I still notice it when I have power saving mode on which makes about 95% difference but I still notice it a bit. But I imagine thats the case with all 3DS games and if you have power saving mode on or off, the 3DS slider on or off etc. I am not positive I am still learning the 3DS as I go. The Sounds and the music are beautiful whether you have headphones or earphones plugged into the system. I use iLuv headphones and it does really sound better when I have the headphones plugged in. Story telling was great in this game I don't have too much to say hear, accept I love how humorous and kid friendly LEGO really does make with its LEGO games. Especially movie trilogy/series based games. Overall I think this game is awesome and I just want to congratulate LEGO Inc., Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment, Travelers Tales Games, The Saul Zaentz Company/Middle-Earth Enterprises and New Line Cinema and Nintendo for Licensing the game. Great job everyone who worked to make this game a success deserves a pat on the back. This game is incredible! I can't wait to play the Wii version!Read full review
I was looking for a game for my little brother, to find a good game and a great deal. This is game was great. It kept my little brother occupied for days, and he still enjoys playing it. The game has a great mix of adventure and combat, and the combat is justified through Lego pieces breaking. So he'll get the fighting but not the whole shebang. He wasn't fond of Lord of the Rings before, but now he likes it because of the game. (Although I wouldn't recommend sharing the actual movie until 12-14 years old, its your discretion.) I was surprised how enjoyable it was yet was an inexpensive deal. A great game for any adventurous person/kid.
The game, of what I've played of it so far, has been fun to play. It seems like a nice Lego game title. I've played a lot of Lego game titles and this is one of the more fun ones.

The only lego 3ds title full cooperative-multiplayer capable (as far as I know). You need 2 copies (cartridges) though. It was a beautiful experience to play this with my son.
