Challenging

Mentionvth

It starts off fairly simple but the last few questions of the campaign mode is quite challenging. I love it!


Has promise but comes up short.

I was initially attracted by the interesting looks, but some things about the app eventually made me have to uninstall. First, many of the answers are flat out wrong. Secondly, the questions flip-flop from asking from the perspective of the books and then from the movies, inevitably causing a few contradictions since events vary between each. There are also a few questions mistakenly written with a negative (e.g. "Whom did not go here?" When the answer is for, "Whom did go here?"). Lastly, it takes too long from the moment you select the answer to know if you got it right or wrong and then move to the next. This drags out the suspense a little too much for my taste making it a bit boring after a 10-15 question streak. Hopefully this app gets some loving from its creator/s because this could be a really great trivia app for arguably the very best fantasy verse ever created.


Unfortunate

To whoever is learned about Middle-Earth and Tolkien's world: Do Not Download... (Mistakes, wrong words "cahadras", vocab faults....) 1 star, the questions are silly enough


Incorrect

I've gotten several questions where the answers it said was right, was actually wrong. Whoever made this doesn't know much about The Lord of the Rings


Amazing

Great game good questions. I'm hoping to see more questions in the future. Plus I love the rank system with the little facts.


Pretty good.

This is probably not very good for people who only watched the movie, or only read the books, because this switches between both questions and I recommend that you read the books and watch the movie. And for back-up... read the slimarillion. The silmarillion about the beginning of Tolkien's world and many of the questions are about it. I mean how are you supposed to know what Arda is. As I read the book I understood the questions better. And I think some of the questions are from the appendix of some books. Because it only says that Legolas and Gimli sailed west when Aragorn died in the appendix. And some questions have bad spelling and grammar. But overall this is a pretty fun game and is any Tolkien fan will enjoy it.


Lover

I love this game? I am like the biggest fan ever! My favorite character Frodo! I know a lot now about lord of the rings. But I haven't watched (read) the hobbit yet I don't know the answers to the hobbit question, but my favorite game by far!?


Not the best

This game has some questions that are way easy (ex: who was the ring bearer) and some that are way hard. If your a super nerd, you wouldn’t like it because of the easy questions, but if you just like LOTR, some questions will be too hard and you’ll end up having to guess. I like that you can reach different ranks, so that part is good. Also, the answers to some questions are wrong.


Did these developers even read Tolkien?

This app looked fun because what Lord of the Rings fan doesn’t love trivia? After playing it for a few days, and perpetually getting answers wrong that I knew were right, I’ve uninstalled it. I mean, really? Hobbits do not eat 7 meals a day. They eat 6; Tolkien only ever wrote about six meals a day (reference the prologue to The Fellowship of the Rings). This app also engages in egregious grammatical errors, which were easily dismissed the first few times I saw them. However, after every other question started showing up with errors, I really got annoyed. Don’t waste your time with this.


I am sorry

I am not one to write a review, but I was attracted to this application because I wished to test my LotR knowledge. I had hopes that this would provides me with a questions about the intricacies of Tolkien's trilogy, but I was sadly not impressed. This program has potential to be the greatest of LotR’s trivia app’s, but there are multiple things that need to be addressed before then. 1) If the answer is longer than a few words, the text does not fit inside the answer box. 2) Create a system to specify if tge question is pertaining to the books or the movies. 3) Verify the answers of the questions. I attempted the campaign multiple times, but I found many of the answers incorrect. 4) Possibly create a way for the user to change the difficulty of the questions. The questions I answered could have been better written and and encompassed more of the lore behind the trilogy. Thank you developers for this app. I did enjoy it, but I cannot see it becoming popular without making the above changes. Thank you!
