About the Game

Step into the beloved fantasy world of J.R.R. Tolkien, continue the journey out of Rivendell, and avoid the fearsome Nazgûl as you accompany Frodo on a desperate journey while the fate of all Middle-earth hangs in the balance!

The Road Darkens is the second Lord of the Rings Saga Expansion for The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game. Its 165 cards introduce three new scenarios to the game, along with two heroes, twenty-seven player cards (three copies each of nine different player cards), eight boons, and seven burdens. Together, these cards allow you to immerse yourself in some of the most pivotal moments of Middle-earth's Third Age as you join Frodo Baggins and his companions on their all-important quest!

New Boon and Burden cards (eight and seven, respectively) ensure your actions have consequences, while a new Easy Mode allows you to tailor the game to your individual play style and skill level.
