If you are a fan of the Book you will enjoy this game. I am new to the whole gamer phenom and I am sure there are way more advanced games on the market but I am enjoying graphics and the over all storyline mirrors the book very well.

This is a very fun, entertaining game. It's great for those who love the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, but also those who haven't read any of the books.

If You Like Zelda & Fate, You'll LOVE This Game!

I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I purchased "The Hobbit" - especially since the price is so low - but I have to say that this game has become one of my all-time favorites, and I plan to play it again & again!

In "The Hobbit", you play the character of Bilbo Baggins - a "lowly" hobbit from The Shire who has been chosen to accompany the dwarves in their quest to reclaim their treasure from the dragon Smaug. This quest will take you to many different lands - each with its' own creatures to deal with & treasure chests to find.

There are a total of 11 chapters in this game, & during each one you'll want to be sure to complete all of the tasks, collect all of the courage points, & find all of the treasure chests - as the courage points add up to extra health bubbles & you'll be able to purchase things like health potion, antidote, rocks & such from the treasure you find (but only at the end of each chapter).

Overall, I found this game to extremely well made & fun!!! The animations are wonderful & the voice-overs are perfect (which is rare to find in computer games these days). There were only 2 "downfalls" - first, although you're able to view the controls for various movements for the computer (this game was originally not a computer game), when you find upgrades along the way the buttons it says to push don't work for the computer - so you have to play around a bit until you find the right ones (I hope that makes sense). Second, it's really difficult to find everything without a walkthrough (although it isn't necessary to find everything in order to finish the game).

The walkthrough I used (and I think it may be the only one out there) is at gamfaqs - you can just go to their website to access this walkthrough - and I have to say, it's one of the best walkthroughs I've ever read (and the author actually returns emails if you get really stuck).

I would highly recommend The Hobbit to anyone who enjoys "adventure" games like Zelda & Fate. It's truly a great game - in fact, I'm hoping they make a part II real soon!

P.S. If anyone knows of other computer games like this please let me know by leaving a comment for this review - thanks!

Great Game except...

Mirkwood REALLY STINKS! When you get past these armed skeleton type people, you have to defeat the Wight Lord. Also, my sister doesn't think you need to listen to Ugslap on Swordlight, but you HAVE to. Please respond how to get past the Wight Lord. My email address is : cats_tacosrock@yahoo.com

Thank You
