The Lord of the Rings: The White Council

We create the character of the hero by choosing one of four good races of Middle-earth: Men, Hobbits, Elves and Dwarves. The creators decided not to create classes suited for only one race, so we are dealing with a few basic archetypes from fantasy and RPGs, e.g.: warrior, sorcerer, hunter, etc. For the sake of variety, it was decided to slightly modify the individual classes, so that, for example, a dwarven warrior had a little different skills than his counterpart of the race of Men. The choice of profession influences the type of skills, but it also has an additional meaning - for each class there is a set of several side quests prepared.

In the course of the adventure we will encounter many a bad creature inhabiting Tolkien's world (from goblins to a powerful dragon), so it is worth mentioning the combat system. Here the gentlemen from EA decided to look for inspiration in other video game adaptations of Tolkien's works. So we are dealing with a combination of arcade elements (taken from LOTR: The Two Towers and LOTR: The Return of the King) and tactical elements, typical for the cRPG genre (which, in turn, were based on LOTR: Third Age). Therefore, the player has to master real-time combat and take into account their current equipment (armor, weapon, etc.) and the character's level.
