  • Check out the Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings Game announcement trailer for the upcoming Hobbit life sim set in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth.

    "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare sandy hole, with nothing to sit down on or to eat. It was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort." - The Game

    Needs a animation and textures overhaul. Its not coming across as whimsical and cartoon style. Its iust coming across as retro in a bad way.
