The Fellowship of The Ring

DOS - 1986
Also available on: Amstrad CPC - Apple II - BBC Micro - Commodore 64 - Mac - ZX Spectrum

After the excellent The Hobbit, Beam Software disappointed its fans with this subpar adventure that has almost incomprehensible puzzles, grammatical errors, and an overall drop in quality. It feels almost as if The Hobbit's designers took a long vacation and left some amateur to finish this game.

Good for some amusing moments and general Tolkienesque nostalgia, but don't expect it to be half as good as its predecessor. It gets credit, however, for being one of the first computer games that allow you to play multiple characters, in this case Frodo, Sam, and Pippin.

You are most likely here due to Vinesauce. So go play, maybe you'll succeed where Joel failed.

Okay, so I haven't used DOS in a long while, and now I have no idea what to do since I can't get it to run as there is no .exe
