What players say
Players are split on the game's charm, praising its dwarf-themed atmosphere and LotR lore while overwhelmingly criticizing its clunky combat, punishing stamina system, tedious backtracking, and repetitive gameplay loop. Many say it feels unfinished and lacks polish, though some enjoy it cooperatively or for its setting.
