ComingSoon's The Lord of the Rings: Gollum preview goes into its interesting setting and its dated, bland gameplay.

was immediately met with a curious reaction from fans.franchise has a long and mostly great history of video game adaptations, but a game that puts players squarely in the shoes of a character like Gollum was not exactly something fans had ever envisioned happening.

Due to the game being almost entirely focused on stealth, Daedalic has also implemented some other platforming mechanics into the game, such as giving Gollum the ability to briefly sprint, run up short walls, climb, and even wall run on certain terrain. While the added mechanics do a good enough job breaking up the monotony of crawling around, the traversal doesn’t fit the character in a few ways.

It’s an unexpected feature in a game like this, and it does a fantastic job sticking to the traits of Gollum that any fan ofknows. However, it’s unclear just how often or important these moments will be. According to a member of Daedalic’s communications team, the ending of the game doesn’t allow for too much wiggle room, but the path to get there will have variance depending on what players choose.

Of course, a game based on author J.R.R. Tolkien’s iconic works would be nothing without its story, and this is wherehas a chance to shine. It is set somewhere in the 60-year period between. From the little we know of the story, the game will follow Gollum as he escapes from Orcs at the end ofand continues on his journey looking for The One Ring, his precious.
