It's a new version of 7 Wonders Duel designed and adapted by masters of the genre, Antoine Bauza and Bruno Cathala, to dive ultra-immersively into the Lord of the Rings universe. The proven mechanics of the bestseller are perfectly fused with the lore, for tense and narrative games lasting about 30 minutes.

The heart of the game is this strategic and epic duel where every choice matters.
