War of the Ring: The Card Game, is a streamlined, card-driven version of the award winning War of the Ring board game. Here up to 4 players compete in two teams, the Shadow against the Free Peoples. Each player uses a different card deck representing the strengths and weaknesses of the different factions involved in the war. The Free Peoples desperately try to complete their quest to destroy the One Ring, while at the same time defending their homelands from the encroaching hordes of Sauron and from his evil allies. The Shadow players must strike quickly, before the Ring-bearers can complete their quest; or try to slowly corrupt Frodo, burdening him with wounds, toil, and sorrow.
