Spectrum

The Hobbit is a classic adventure game, and although it's nearly six years old, it's still challenging and addictive. Lord Of The Rings is a similar, but larger, game which comes in three parts and features multi-character control.

Shadows Of Mordor is relatively new, and is a complex RPG-style adventure.

The Tolkien Trilogy is a brilliant package for adventure fans, and is highly recommended. 85%

Amstrad

All the versions play identically to the Spectrum games, but the graphics are far more colourful, and where relevant, the sound is better.

Look out for The Tolkien Trilogy - it'll keep you engrossed for months! 86%
