Set to arrive on March 22, the second edition of The One Ring RPG was designed by Francesco Nepitello and Marco Maggi, and brought to us by the acclaimed publisher behind Alien: The Roleplaying Game and Tales From the Loop. Not only was The One Ring one of the most successful tabletop roleplaying games to ever hit Kickstarter last year (it raised well over an eye-watering $2 million), but it was also well-received by critics as well.
Set shortly after Bilbo Baggins’ quest in The Hobbit and just before the events of The Lord of the Rings, The One Ring RPG places players in the shoes of famous characters from the lore of J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy world, like Frodo’s father, Drogo Baggins, or Merry’s grandfather, Rory Brandybuck.
In essence, players will embark on a quest to find clues and uncover the mystery behind the Dark Lord, and give players an opportunity to play a pivotal role in the battle against Sauron and his nefarious plans.
