Remake?
Published on 20 September 2010 - 15:43:48

Does anyone know if this is a remake of the 2001 game?

The news post says at the end that it's not a remake.

I like how it says this on the game description:

"(not to be confused with FFG's previous release of the same name)"

Exact same name by the exact same company.  No, why would we ever get that confused?  :/

Snarks aside, I'm looking forward to the game.  Smells like a mashup of Lord of the Rings and Beowulf:The Legend plus some dice,

Perhaps a remake of the I.C.E game from the 80's... or was that the 90's?  Sounds very similar.

While waiting for the return of the Great Old Ones, why not check out my fan creations:

No. I own the Iron Crown game, not at all like this one. Not sure which I like more but they are very different.

How many different board games named "The Hobbit" have there been?  I don't know which one I played back in the early 90s but at the time I kind of liked it.  I only vaguely remember it, don't remember what the box looked like or anything...

The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.  -Terry Pratchett
