Is it still worth playing?

The three films of Peter Jackson's trilogy are retold in bricks, eighteen levels with six for each film. They follow the stories with the jokes in, and much of the dialogue is taken from the films themselves. It is a 2012 game for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PC, 3DS, DS and Vita, with a Mac version in 2013. Between the levels is an open Middle earth, everything but Mirkwood and the lands south of Mordor, with more than eighty characters, each with abilities of their own, and magical items to collect. The digital versions were pulled in January 2019 and later restored on Steam and Xbox. Middle earth is still something you can walk from the Shire to Mordor, between the films.
