Just so you all know, I've contact Glu with regards to this game in the hope of obtaining some more information. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 12:56, 27 October 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Okay, nice. I'm quite interested where this game goes about. --Amroth
OK, I did receive an e-mail from Glu, which I am posting here as - I hope - an acceptable source for information:

Release Date: November

Platform: iPhone and iPad

Developer: Glu Mobile

# of levels: 18 levels across 7 environments from the trilogy.
Environments include Amon Sul, Mines of Moria, Helm's Deep, Gondor and more.

Modes: The game features numerous hours of gameplay across two gameplay
modes: Story and Challenge.

History: Over the last few years we've had a fantastic relationship with Warner Bros. We've worked closely together on a handful of successful titles, so when the opportunity to create a game based on the Lord of the Rings trilogy came up we naturally jumped at the chance. Internally we have a lot of people who just love the films so it was a lot of fun trying to craft a game that's not only innovative and fun but does justice to the property as well. We think we've done a fantastic job and can't wait for everyone to check it out!

Of course, since this e-mail was sent, the game has now been released and do have a bit more information. See this report from TORn, for example. --Mith (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 13:45, 22 November 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
