Ravensburger bolsters Adventure Book Game range with The Lord of the Rings

The Lord of the Rings is the latest brand to get the Adventure Book Game treatment from Ravensburger.

Following launches with The Princess Bride and The Wizard of Oz, The Lord of the Rings Adventure Book Game sees players embark on a journey from The Shire to the fires of Mordor across eight different chapters, each with their own unique game ‘page’.

“The Lord of the Rings’ immersive story world unfolded perfectly in our adventure book board game format,” said Shanon Lyon, Game Development Manager at Ravensburger.

“We designed the game to capture the detail and thoroughness that The Lord of the Rings fans have come to know and love from Ravensburger games. The thrill of the series’ iconic moments truly jumps off the board game ‘pages.’”

The Lord of the Rings Adventure Book Game will go on sale next month.
