About:

Tolkien's novel The Lord of the Rings, describing the efforts of the Hobbits Frodo, Pippin, and Sam and their quest to bring the ring to Mount Doom. The game is divided into two parts (represented by two separate executable files: DOS version).

From meeting with Tom Bombadil, the Green Knight, the Balrog and ends with the Nazgul River incident.
