The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game – Shadow and Flame is an epic conclusion to the Dwarrowdelf cycle, where you and a friend embark on a perilous journey through treacherous mountain passes, dark tunnels, and underground waterways. As you delve deeper into the depths of Moria, you'll encounter goblin ambushes and other obstacles that will test your skills and strategic thinking. With a playtime of 60 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in the world of Middle-earth and experience the thrill of exploring new lands and battling fearsome enemies. As a cooperative game, you'll work together with your fellow player to overcome challenges and make your way through the narrative arc of the game. With the introduction of a new hero and three copies of each player card, you'll have plenty of opportunities to develop your characters and master new skills. The game's normal complexity makes it easy to learn, even for those familiar with board games, and the variable player powers add a layer of depth and strategy to the gameplay. As the final Adventure Pack in the Dwarrowdelf cycle, Shadow and Flame promises an unforgettable experience, pitting you against a demon from the times of Morgoth in an epic battle that will determine the fate of Middle-earth.
