A dark rumour spreads from Mordor. The Eye turns towards Middle-earth. The time has come. The Fellowship reunites and the heroes prepare for battle. In Duel for Middle-earth, you must choose a side. Play as the Fellowship of the Ring and prevent the enemy from gaining ground and destroying the One Ring. Or play as Sauron and send your Nazgûl after Sam and Frodo, while spreading your hordes across enemy cities. The fate of Middle-earth lies in your hands!

The Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle-Earth is a spin-off of 7 Wonders - Duel, where one player plays Sauron's evil forces and the other plays the free peoples of Middle-earth.
