Play Lord of the Rings : The Fellowship of the Ring Online

I picked up Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring for the Game Boy Color back in 2002, a time when licensed games were a real mixed bag. It was developed by Pocket Studios and published by Black Label Games, and it felt like a genuine attempt to translate the book's early chapters into a portable adventure. You don't see many text-heavy RPGs on the GBC, but this one tried to fit a big story onto a small screen.

You control Frodo for most of the journey, guiding him screen by screen through locations like the Shire and the Old Forest. The main goal is to get the Ring to Rivendell, which involves a lot of exploration, simple sword combat, and talking to characters to unlock the next path. You collect key items, solve environmental puzzles like moving logs to cross rivers, and occasionally fight in straightforward turn-based battles. The pacing is deliberate, almost slow, and some sections can feel a bit cryptic, demanding patience. It feels like a quiet, thoughtful trek through a familiar story, made for small moments between other things.
