    A good game if you like the books and movies. It does require some thought to beat the more challenging levels.

    I though that this game was very good. It provided interesting level design and a varity of missions sticking well to the masterpiece of a story. The battles were a little weak with a small variety of moves, but were nevertheless hard, requiring skill. It is a game that is fun to play once at least!

    An all around fun game with great music. Sneaking, action, puzzles the game has it all. Graphics aren't amazing but the art style is great, the gameplay is fun and refreshing. A must have in my books.

    You find yourself waist-deep in a Zelda-style action/adventure, with a larger emphasis on stealth and platforming. [Oct 2003, p.65]

    Tolkien fans may enjoy the game's presentation of Middle-earth lore, but The Hobbit tends to rely too heavily on derivative, uninspired gameplay for it to stand up on its own.

    Recommended to hardcore Tolkien fans or to younger players after a fun adventure. That said, the game has a long way to go to take on "Link" in battle.
