Hunt for the Ring

In Hunt for the Ring, one player steps into the shoes of Frodo and his friends on a perilous journey from the Shire to Rivendell. Up to four other players play as the Nazgûl, trying to track down the hobbits. As they travel, Frodo and his companions must resist the Ring's corrupting influence. This hidden movement game unfolds in two chapters, each on a different game - board. In the first chapter, the Frodo player aims to reach Bree from the Shire. Fail to do so in sixteen turns, and they'll gain corruption points. If successful, they can either save the game details to play the second chapter later or continue right away. In the second chapter, Frodo moves from Bree to Rivendell. Instead of directly controlling the hobbits, the Frodo player draws cards from a journey deck, each showing a path to Rivendell.

How to play: First, decide who will be Frodo and his companions and who will be the Nazgûl. The game starts in the first chapter. The Frodo player tries to move from the Shire to Bree within sixteen turns. Use your wits to avoid the Nazgûl and resist the Ring's corruption. If you reach Bree, you can choose to continue to the second chapter immediately or save your progress. In the second chapter, draw cards from the journey deck to find your way to Rivendell. The Nazgûl players should do their best to catch the hobbits. Note: Keep track of your turns and corruption points. Don't forget to record your exit point and other game details if you plan to play the second chapter later. Maintenance: Keep the game board and cards in a dry place. Avoid bending or creasing the cards to ensure they last longer.
