Matchmaking in Middle-earth
This is a themed version of the popular matching game, dedicated to the works of John R. R. Tolkien. It is a simple, fast and exciting family game that will allow you to combine business with pleasure — adults will have fun, and children will be able to train their attentiveness and reaction speed.
The game has 55 round cards, and any 2 of them have one (and only one!) common image. Try to be the first to find a match on two cards and get closer to victory! Show your alertness and agility by finding iconic characters, objects and locations of Middle-earth: Frodo, Gandalf, the One Ring, the palantir, Minas Tirith, the hobbit hole...
The Tower of Sauron
Several minigames / game options are available to participants. In this minigame, players receive one card each and reveal the top card from the deck in the center of the table. The first person to find the same image on their card and the card in the center of the table takes it and puts it on the previous card. The game continues in the same way until the deck runs out, and at the end, the one who collects the most cards wins.
The minigame also has a unique One Ring card. If you notice that the card you just opened from the deck has the symbol of the Ring, you can not look for a match with your symbols, but cover the central card with your hand and take the One Ring for yourself. At the end, the One Ring card will bring you extra points!
