Masterful Action Moments and Top-Notch Hack & Slash
The Return Of The King can hardly be called surprising, but the action moments of the film are still masterfully portrayed on screen. Top-notch Hack & Slash gameplay. (Score 80)

Extensive character selection and engaging gameplay
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is a very enjoyable game. However, it is quite short. The fun part is that towards the end, you can collect up to 9 characters and with training, you can also purchase new attacks and combos. The best characters are Gandalf or Gimli. All the characters are: Legolas, Faramir, Aragorn, Gimli, Gandalf, Frodo, Sam, Pippin, Merry, and Faramir instead of Boromir to complete the fellowship. The story goes from Helm's Deep to Mount Doom and includes various bonuses, including two levels. I have personally completed everything and leveled up each character to level 20!!
In the end, I believe this is the best hack and slash game ever. I give it a 9.

Many characters to unlock and variety in skills
What's great about The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is that you can choose from so many characters. Once you've unlocked them all, you can select from a whopping 10 characters. It's also fun to have a combo meter that grows as you defeat more enemies in a row; the better your combos, the more points you earn, and the more points you earn, the more skills you can buy for your characters. Eventually, you'll acquire really powerful skills, like arrows that pierce and set your targets on fire. There's a lot of variety in the game, making it a must-have for the GameCube.

A must-have for fans of action and adventure!
LOTR, I really recommend it, fighting, fighting, and more fighting, it remains fun. Always new exciting levels and a choice of over 10 playable characters, and it always keeps you on the edge of your seat, suddenly being stormed by a group of orcs, or having the mysterious Smeagol come to the aid of the Hobbits again.
There are also many bonuses included, allowing you to learn more about how they created The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and what the main characters of the game think about it.
It's just so much fun to play this game over and over again, with many different attacks, always something to do when you meet up with a friend, this game will never get boring!!! (and you can also play the storyline together)

Challenging gameplay and enjoyable co-op experience
This is truly a fantastic game.
Great gameplay, fun co-op, decent graphics, and enjoyable battles.
However, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is extremely difficult, I really got angry at this game because that one boss just wouldn't die!

You want to keep playing but sometimes it's just not possible. So, it's best to always have another game on hand that you can play when you get stuck here.
Other than that, fantastic!

Double the fun with co-op gameplay
Playing The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King alone is already a good game, but with a friend, it's twice as enjoyable. You simply have to chop down a lot of enemies to help Sam and Frodo succeed, and that's great fun to do.

Amazing graphics and co-op mode for joint battles
It's truly an amazing game. With stunning graphics, great music (but that was to be expected) and smooth gameplay, and of course the story, this is really a good game. There are also many extras in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, such as interviews and artwork and even a making-of. And you have Co-op mode, where you can play together. It's really exciting to fight against Shelob with a friend. The story is solid, but that's logical and known to everyone who has read the books. It's a bit of a shame that it sometimes deviates quite a bit from the movie, which wasn't the case in The Two Towers. If you like action, you should definitely buy it, unless you haven't seen the movie yet and are planning to watch it, as the game can spoil the outcome (partially). Highly recommended!

Play as your favorite heroes: Aragorn, Legolas, and Gandalf!
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King for the Nintendo GameCube is super exciting! You get to play as iconic heroes like Aragorn, Legolas, and Gandalf. At our place, we absolutely loved battling against orcs and other monsters in epic fights. The action is intense, and the battles feel truly epic.

The levels are really cool and based on the movie, providing an authentic experience. The graphics are beautiful, and the music is the same as in the film, enhancing the atmosphere. I also love that you can play together with a friend, making it even more fun and challenging. The co-op mode, in particular, really adds something special to the gameplay.

For me, it was a good game, but not perfect. Some parts of the game can feel a bit repetitive. Nevertheless, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King comes highly recommended for fans of the movies and action-adventure games.

Occasionally frustrating hack 'n slash gameplay with sloppy graphics
Almost perfect hack 'n slash gameplay, but occasionally frustratingly annoying and with sloppy graphics. However, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is definitely not a bad game and recommended for those who enjoy this genre.

Feel like a true hero of Middle-Earth
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is an exciting and cool game. It gives you the freedom to explore the locations from the movie, from Helm's Deep to Mount Doom. Moreover, it's of course fun that you can be the heroes from the film. Want to experience what it's like to be a real hero of Middle-Earth? Buy this game and you won't regret it.

Multiple storylines and characters to unlock
Fun game based on the 3rd movie of LOTR. Only the first level with Gandalf is from the 2nd movie... In The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, you can choose from 3 paths that intersect in the penultimate level. The paths are: the wizard, the hobbits, and the warriors.
You can earn and upgrade points with each character. Additionally, you can unlock characters as you progress.

Fantastic Fighting Game with Versatile Characters and Environments
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is a fantastic fighting game. The game features a moderate number of levels (not too many, not too few), enjoyable music, and a wide variety of characters. Furthermore, the graphics are good. You can choose from 3 paths:
- the path of the wizard
- the path of the king
Read more...
- the path of the hobbits
On the path of the wizard, you can fight your way through the road to Isengard and in Minas Tirith using Gandalf's staff, sword, and magical powers.
I personally enjoy the game because of the diverse environments and the multitude of characters, each with their own tactical abilities (Legolas with his bow, Gimli with his axe, etc.). This is a game that won't easily get boring.

Great graphics and music, but lacks gameplay innovation
My opinion is: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, when compared to its predecessor, doesn't show a significant improvement in terms of gameplay; it remains a hack-and-slash game. However, the graphics and the music are truly amazing! The movie is recreated very well in the game (although it deviates occasionally, but that's totally fine).
You can choose from three different paths, which keeps you engaged with the game for a long time. It's still exciting to upgrade your character repeatedly and learn cooler moves to crush your enemies.
If you've already seen the movie, I would definitely recommend trying it out, but if you haven't watched the movie yet, I'd suggest renting it from the video store first, as it enhances the game experience significantly.
