'The Lord of the Rings: Adventure Card Game' (ALL) Developer Fantasy Flight Interactive Shuts Down

Build your deck and face the Dark Forces of Sauron in The Lord of the Rings: Adventure Card Game! Lead your own fellowship of heroes through quests that will test your leadership, tactics, lore, and spirit.

Battle Uruks, spiders, orcs, and more as you journey through Middle-earth, earning cards and devising new tactics along the way.

As a Living Card Game, The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game relied on a fixed distribution of cards to remove randomness from the purchase model and brought players deeper into The Lord of the Rings universe with a focus on immersive, narrative-driven experiences. Now, Fantasy Flight Interactive brings that same philosophy to the digital card game market with The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game, a completely unique digital card game with a non-randomized approach to card purchasing and a focus on cooperative, story-based gameplay.

As a single-player experience, The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game— tasks players with leading a team of three heroes through a series of narrative campaigns across Middle-earth as they face off against the dark forces of Sauron, controlled by the computer. Players will forge their own fellowships and build decks comprised of ally, event, and equipment cards to face challenges that test their willpower, knowledge, tactics and leadership. In the future, The Lord of the Rings Living Card Game will be expanded to support co-op play, allowing two players to bring their fellowships together and fight through quests side-by-side!

Ready your weapons, gather your heroes, and create your own story.

Fantasy Flight Interactive studio head Tim Gerritsen (previously exec at Human Head Studios and Irrational Games) has revealed it is shutting down.

It's with great sadness that I have to report that the decision has been made to close Fantasy Flight Interactive next month.

I'm proud of the team and the game we've dedicated ourselves to for the past few years. It's a been an amazing journey with even more amazing people. I'm going to do my best to get my team placed in new positions.

I have programmers, designers, artists, QA staff and a producer to get placed in new roles and will do my best to do so quickly.

Additionally, I'm now open to new opportunities myself since I will also be out of a job.
