Played our first adventure in The Lord of the RIngs - Journeys in Middle Earth, 2 players: Legolas and Aragorn with the recommended roles. We chose the lowest difficulty "Adventure" and finished it succesfully, felt that "Normal" would've been doable also.

Oh cool! I wish my gf would be into adventure games! How is it playing with the app? Does that work well?

The app works well enough, used it on PC, I guess on phone it would be a lot harder to see everything and scrolling the map a lot. I find the icoography a bit small compared to the text, I have to see if the text size settings change icons as well.

At one point it mentioned a word I was thinking could be a keyword, but wasn't highlighted as such, I didn't find it in the rules in that moment. After the game I realized it was a specific status I got. Something to learn probably.

And it would be cool if flavor texts would be read out loud, not just the intro.
