Collect heroes to battle in Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle-Earth

Console gamers everywhere have been enthralled with Shadow of Mordor, an action-heavy game based on the universe created by J.R.R. Tolkien. While we don't have a mobile version of Shadow of Mordor to play, Kabam and Warner Bros. Interactive released a Middle-Earth game of their own – Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle Earth.

Legends of Middle Earth is a free to play character collecting strategy game in which players assemble a team composed of characters from the Lord of the Rings trilogy and do battle against teams sent by Sauron. While very light on strategy, the simple controls and hordes of characters to collect should appeal to fantasy fans looking for something simple but engaging to play.
