About the Story
In this game, you play the role of Frodo Baggins, hobbit and inadvertent ringbearer. Your mission is explained in the introductory screens of the game: you must take the Ring to the inn of the Prancing Pony in Bree, where you will meet the wizard Gandalf and deliver the Ring into his care.

Disclaimer: no socks were knocked off in the playing of FotR. But I did feel a strange beauty with its competent simplicity. The meta-experience implied in the manual wouldn't have worked without a functioning game underneath. Adam mixes practical joke with compassion, satire with devotion. And unlike "Baseball", FotR has no blocky graphics that remind you you're playing a game. Nope, just text and your own imagination. Hey...
