gollum from lord of the rings in volcano

So when I saw that Gollum (I’m not putting the full title each time) starts with him in jail, I couldn’t tell you when that canonically is. Broad strokes, I know, but the intricate details are absolutely lost on me. I mean, I get the general premise: ragtag crew takes powerful trinket into enemy lands to slam dunk it into lava. So, that disclaimer I made at the start? I wasn’t exaggerating, I don’t actually know much about Lord of the Rings. A third person adventure from the perspective of a kind-of-anti-hero, Gollum looks to bridge that gap nicely.īut does it hold up to the scrutiny people hold for the series, or should it slink back into the darkness and be forgotten? Let’s find out, shall we? Something About A Ring? Set after the events of The Hobbit but before The Fellowship, Gollum sees players take the titular mantle as he strives to get The One Ring back from Bilbo.

But I respect the lineage, so I thought I would give The Lord of the Rings: Gollum a try when it came in. Tried the books, managed to get to the third one, but it wasn’t for me. Slight disclaimer here (because I know there’ll be pitchforks): I’ve never watched the Lord of the Rings films.

A big step for Daedalic here, is Gollum their breakthrough title or should it be cast into Mount Doom? Find out in the Finger Guns review:
