A new role-playing game is hugely successful on the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform.

A success story which owes its success in part to the universe in which

The One Ring

comes to life, namely the world of The

Lord of the Rings

.

Despite the years, the universe imagined by JRR Tolkien is still very popular, as the success of this new project proves.

The goal of the campaign was 9,941 euros, an amount reached in just 4 minutes.

Today, the crowdfunding campaign for The One Ring exceeds 980,000 euros thanks to nearly 10,000 investors.

A success which can also be explained by the quality of the role-playing game itself since it is a new version of the very popular

War of The Ring

, released in 2011.

Several new features are on the program for this edition.

Players will thus be able to go further in the adventure and explore the Lonely Lands of Eriador during the year 2965. The rules of the game have been updated and simplified based on the many feedback from the community.

The One Ring

also received a complete visual overhaul, providing a fresh and familiar take on Middle-earth.

In the twilight of the Third Age

The One Ring

comes to life during the twilight of the Third Age, in which Bilbo the Hobbit finds the One Ring and, a few years later, Frodo sets out on a mission to Mordor.

In the year 2965, players will need to form a company of heroes in order to explore the Lonely Lands of Eriador.

These desolate lands, destroyed by multiple wars, harbor many dangers, including shadows that do not belong to the world of the living.

It is in these lands that the One Ring is hidden that will lead the people of Middle-earth to come together to defeat Sauron.

The designer of the game, Francesco Nepitello, also offers a collector's version of the book

The One Ring

for the ten years of the game. This one is in imitation leather with golden ornaments.

This is exclusive to the Kickstarter campaign.

Thanks to the success of the campaign, the basic set will include many additions, including a color map of the Shire and Eriador, cards of combat postures and items of all kinds, a set of personalized dice, as well as a complete compendium of the County.
