Like the other LEGO Tt games it is an adaptation of the franchise to the LEGO universe. It allows players to play through different scenes from the films and follow Bilbo Baggins as he is recruited by Gandalf to aid Thorin Oakenshield and his Company of Dwarves.

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is an open world Action RPG, where the player controls a Ranger by the name of Talion who has wraith-like abilities. Besides the main quest, the player also has the freedom to pursue side quests and roam around Mordor. Players fight through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit that compels you, discover the origins of the Rings of Power, build your legend and ultimately confront the evil of Sauron in this new chronicle of Middle-earth.

The Lord of the Rings: War of the Ring

The Lord of the Rings: War of the Ring is a 2003 real-time strategy game developed by Liquid Entertainment. It plays much like Warcraft III with added features, some previously used in Battle Realms. A similar layout and control system is used, and the player gets to control hero units with special abilities. Most regular units also have abilities of their own. The game also follows certain RTS conventions such as having rally points and controlling unit creation and purchase of upgrades at designated buildings.

The Lord of the Rings: Conquest

EA's last take on the Lord of the Rings movies' license combines the classic gameplay of the Star Wars Battlefront titles and beat-em-up elements from the Return of the King game. It features two solo campaigns and skirmish maps as well as 16-player (only!) multiplayer modes.

The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II

The events in these games take some of the lesser-detailed events in the J. R. R. Tolkien Lord of the Rings universe and turns them into RTS campaigns. Gameplay is the same as the first game with some tweaks and improvements. The Battle for Middle-earth II allows you to complete two campaings for good and evil with the Witch-King expansion adding another evil campaign. I will take the Ring.

The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth

Players control characters that appear throughout the books as hero units and enact many of the scenes from the movies. There are additional standard units that make up the traditional RTS ranks. A good and evil campaign are both available allowing players to control the "Free Peoples" or the "Forces of Darkness". Flow of events in the game can be altered from the movie scenes to add some twists to the gameplay. Characters gain special abilities as they grow in strength which allow them to perform deeds of heroism and summon powerful allies.
