Reception

Rick Swan reviewed Fellowship of the Ring in Space Gamer No. 71. [1] Swan commented that "A solitaire system allowing the Fellowship to find its way across the land, making discoveries and encountering resistance along the way, might be a better way to capture the adventurous feel of the books. [...] In any case, in spite of the best intentions, Fellowship of the Ring is little more than a nice try." [1]
