The
Lord of the Rings War of the Ring is a real-time
strategy video game similar to Age of Empires that was developed by Liquid
Entertainment and published by Sierra Entertainment in 2003. But The Lord
of the Rings War of the Ring has some unique and extra game play features
and visually and graphically it’s better than other such kind of games. This game
can also be played in 3d view if you’ve a better graphics card. To play the
game in 3d graphics you’ll just need to zoom in using the scroll button on your
mouse. The game play of The Lord of the Rings War of the Ring is
similar to Age of Empire and Warcraft III. In this game the units can also
run, as well as walk, by double clicking at the desired location on the screen.
The
most unique thing in this game is that you can train “Heroes” that has some
unique and extra abilities such as making the enemies blind and blowing a wind
to heal our other units and much more. These special abilities can be developed
by attaining “Fate Points” that may be achieved by winning a combat against the
enemies. “Fate Points” allow the player to activate these special abilities
called “Fate Powers”. After the winning of every combat fate points will be
increased and new fate powers of the heroes will be displayed at the lower
right corner after selecting that hero. The player just needs to click on the
desired fate power to use it. The combat against the enemies is more real and
easy than other games in The Lord of the Rings War of the Ring. If the
player is facing a group of enemies, the units will automatically fight with
all of them at a time i.e. every enemy unit will be attacked if the player has
the units equal to the enemies or greater. However, player can also attack on a
single enemy unit if he clicks on it according to the game situation.
