About this deal

The Lord of the Rings TCG offers an immersive experience into the world of Middle-earth. The cards boast intricate artwork and descriptions, showcasing characters, events, and locations from the books and films. Despite being a trading card game, the rules and mechanics are intuitive and straightforward, allowing even beginners to effortlessly jump into the game and use any and all cards from the set, which cannot be said with games such as Pokemon TCG where current rules limit cards. He typically begins his creative process with a lot of reference gathering, looking for materials and art styles to draw inspiration from. Fantasy and Lord Of the Rings fans will adore the attention to detail and thematic ties in the game, for example the clever way in which Gandalf comes in and out of the quest and has game-changing powers that can aid you in times of great peril. Robinson says that he’s worked as a professional illustrator for more than 20 years on big brand names and franchises ranging from Star Wars and Marvel Comics to Disney and Coca-Cola, but he’s always loved The Lord of the Rings. His favorite artists working in Tolkien’s milieu includes John Howe and Alen Lee, but he also loves the work of Donato Giancola and the woodcuts of Tolkien Society best artwork category award-winner Tomas Hijo.

However, his interest in playing cards dates from around 2013. He says he only fell into it by accident while working in the videogame industry in Los Angeles. The game never overstays its welcome and time can fly as you are battling your way through Mirkwood Forest or journeying along the Anduin River. The only barrier is remembering all of the key-words, effects and stages of the game turns if you haven’t played for a while - viewing how to play videos can refresh your memory however. As you progress through the three quests, the difficulty increases and this leads to multiple play throughs. The synergy between certain cards and between players who have different spheres is the key to success and learning this gives a great sense of accomplishment.
