Monopoly has taken a captivating journey to the realms of Middle-earth with its "Lord of the Rings Edition," and it's a tabletop experience that will delight fans of both the classic board game and J.R.R. Tolkien's epic cinematic trilogy.
First and foremost, this edition just shines in the visual department. The board itself is a work of art, a beautifully rendered map of Middle-earth, complete with iconic locations from the movie trilogy. Whether you're venturing through the Shire, navigating the treacherous terrain of Mordor, or acquiring properties in Rivendell, the attention to detail is astounding. It's a visual feast that immerses players in the rich and beloved world of Tolkien, which is really exciting to me, as some Monopoly editions skimp out on the theming. This one does not!
What truly sets this edition apart are the game pieces. Each character is a meticulously crafted work of art, cast in high-quality metal and brimming with intricate details. From Frodo and Sam with their faithful backpacks to Legolas, Gimli, and Aragorn in their heroic poses, these tokens pay a fitting tribute to the beloved characters of Middle-earth. Samwise's pans on his back are a charming touch that made me laugh when I saw them. Also the attention to detail is appreciated because on figurines this small, you can't really see their faces so distinctive items are vital. The property pieces, designed to resemble Minas Tirith, add an extra layer of Middle-earth to the game. It's these little touches that make the experience so immersive for fans.
And, of course, we can't forget "The One Ring" – a coveted collectible that comes with this edition. I didn't take a picture of that because everyone knows what it looks like, but it feels like any ring.
This is a collector's dream and a fantastic gift for any fan of Tolkien. It seamlessly blends the beloved world of Middle-earth with the classic gameplay of Monopoly, resulting in an immersive and visually stunning board game experience. I'm very happy with it.

This is a great version of monopoly with just a little twist added. The tokens have great detail, and the board is beautifully done. I bought mine as "used like new" for only $12. The box was a little banged up but as a player more than collector it was worth the trade off and it's definitely recommend buying "used like new" if available. The game was complete with everything sealed and unused. I could only assume it was returned by a collector that wanted a perfect box. My box is fine and intact, just warped in places.
Loved it! The tokens and artwork are top notch.

The directions are easy to follow but somewhat unclear. The ring bearer is said to move the ring marker before rolling. The directions say the game ends when the ring marker reaches mt. Doom, but it doesn't say whether or not the bearer must roll on that turn, or if the game simply ends without rolling on the final turn. For our game we decided to do a final roll, but rolled the eye thus continuing the game. One issue here is there is no penalty for rolling the eye at mt. Doom aside from losing the ring.

A Unique, Quality Gift For Any Lord of the Rings Lover!
Style: The Lord of the RingsVerified Purchase
This Lord of the Rings Monopoly set is beautifully designed and the gameplay is well thought out! It includes all nine members of the fellowship (as represented in the movies) as game pieces and the One Ring (well crafted) as an exciting element of gameplay. Each piece has a nice weight to it. The quest cards bring each game various plot twists, and the ring adds a thrilling danger just like in the trilogy and the movies. The quality and detail of every element of the game was pleasantly surprising. The game arrived on time (for a birthday), and though it is pricey, the experience was worth it. Playing this game was a fun and competitive adventure for the whole Lord of the Rings crowd- especially with jokes of, "My preciouss", and, "One does not simply walk into Mordor." I would recommend this game for anyone over the age of ten, as it somewhat differs from the classic Monopoly game and is a touch more complicated. That said, the instructions were still engaging and understandable. My only concern is that the hobbit figurines are close in appearance, but the more you play, the easier it becomes to tell them apart. Overall this was a wonderfully unique gift for a Monopoly and The Lord of the Rings lover!JT ReviewsA Unique, Quality Gift For Any Lord of the Rings Lover!

Pros:
- fun concept with additions to traditional monopoly being the ring and journey to Mordor
- nice to change out chance cards for quest cards
- nice cast metal characters
- good instructions
Cons:
- poor quality of printed property locations with grainy images
- all the things you touch eg the coins, Mordor coins, quest cards and property cards are made of thin cardboard with no lamination, adds to the cheap feel and they’ll wear out quickly
- corners for passing go, free parking, jail etc could have had some imagination to make them LOTR themed, it’s a bit stupid retaining these when everything else is themed
- metal characters, especially the hobbits could be more distinguishable
- some of the locations could also have had some more imagination e.g. ‘Bow’ or ‘Staff’ as names for the utilities is meh when the others are called ‘sting’ and ‘morgul blade’
