------------Gameplay Basics------------

Game Modes

This game has plenty of levels for you to play, with 18 story levels. There are several different game modes you can play, which I'll describe here. I also describe how I structure the walkthroughs for each game mode.

The first time you play a story level, you will be playing Story Mode. You will only have access to the characters that the game gives you. Generally, your exploration is limited due to the characters you have, meaning you'll have to come back in Free Play Mode to unlock the collectibles you couldn't collect in Story Mode. After completing a level in Story Mode, you can select the Replay Story option to replay the level in Story Mode.

At the top of my Story Mode walkthroughs, I list the enemies you'll encounter and any bosses you will fight. I also list both your starting characters and any characters that are added as you progress. Finally, I list the True Adventurer total for that level. Each level is split up into parts, which I sometimes call areas. Each part is a distinct area of the level, separated from other areas by a screen wipe (it will be very obvious when you enter a new area). Below each part, I explain what to do in that part to progress in the level. I do not include the locations of any collectibles, even if you can collect them in the story. At the end of the walkthrough, I list any characters you unlocked. If you need to purchase these characters, I have also included their cost in studs.

After completing a level in Story Mode, you will be able to play it in Free Play Mode. In Free Play Mode, you can select any character from all the ones you've unlocked to take into the level. The game will then give you a selection of other characters to cover all of the abilities you have unlocked. In Free Play Mode, your goal is to find all of the collectibles. At any point in Free Play Mode, you can save and exit to return to Middle-earth without having to complete the level.

My Free Play Mode walkthroughs are also divided into parts, as I believe this makes them easier to navigate. At the top of the walkthrough will be a list of the abilities you'll need to collect all of the collectibles in that level. Free Play Mode walkthroughs contain the locations of all 10 Treasure Chests, all 3 Treasure Items and the Blacksmith Design, even if they can be collected in Story Mode. Screenshots are also included to add clarity to the walkthrough.

Inventory and the Treasure Trove

While not a terribly complicated concept, I thought I would devote a section here to explaining the Inventory and Treasure Trove.

While playing as any character, hold down the "special" button to bring up their inventory. Here, you can see all of the items that they currently have, and if they have multiple, you can select which object you want the character to hold. In order to use some character's abilities, you'll have to first select the appropriate item from their inventory.


When picking up certain items (like firewood) you'll have to add them to your inventory. To do this, press the "special" button again after picking them up. You'll first have to select an open spot on their inventory, as characters can only hold up to 8 objects at once.




In addition to whatever items your character usually carries, you also have access to a whole host of other items via the Treasure Trove. You'll unlock the Treasure Trove during "Interlude - Strider" and it can be accessed from the bottom of the inventory wheel.




Pull up the Treasure Trove and you'll have access to all of the Treasure Items you have collected, as well as all of the Mithril objects you have forged.







Some items that you can pick up in Story levels will have purple lights coming off of them. This means that they can be combined with something else.







Pick the item up and you might find another item in your inventory outlined in purple (like Sam's Frying Pan in the screenshot). Press the "special" button with the purple object selected to combine the two items.

Collectibles

To get 100%, you gotta collect everything. There are lots of things to collect, so it's important to know what you are looking for! You can check your overall collectible progress from the pause menu.

Studs
These are the most important things you can collect. Studs act as the game's currency, so you'll want to be picking up as many as you can find. The silver studs are worth 10, the gold studs 100, the blue studs 1,000, and the purple studs 10,000. You'll use studs to purchase things in Middle-earth, so you'll want to be collecting as many as you can.



True Adventurer
Collecting studs is essential if you want to reach True Adventurer status. Collecting studs in a level will reveal a stud bar in the top center of the screen. As you collect studs, the stud bar will gradually turn yellow. Once you fill the stud bar, you will achieve True Adventurer status. Once you achieve True Adventurer in a level, you cannot lose it. Even if you lose all the studs in a level after achieving True Adventurer, you will not lose it. Achieving True Adventurer in a level will net you a Mithril Brick.

Treasure Chests
Looking exactly as you would expect them to, these collectibles can be found in Story levels. There are 10 in each Story level, and collecting all 10 of them will complete the Minikit Model for that level. Collect all 10 Treasure Chests in the Story level to receive a Mithril Brick.




Mithril Bricks
This is the bulk of your exploration, as there are 250 of these to collect in the game. Mithril Bricks appear as white bricks, and when you collect them, they'll go into a bag. You'll use the Mithril Bricks in your bag when forging items at the Blacksmith in Bree. Once you forge an item, the Mithril Bricks you used will be transferred to your total out of 250.



You can collect Mithril Bricks by:

• Completing Story levels (18 total)
  
• Achieving True Adventurer in a Story level (18 total)
  
• Collecting all 10 Treasure Chests in a Story level (18 total)
  
• Collecting all 3 Treasure Items in a Story level (18 total)
  
• Collecting the Blacksmith Design in a Story level (18 total)
  
• Completing Fetch Quests in Middle-earth (30 total)
  
• Collecting them in Middle-earth (130 total)

Blacksmith Designs
Blacksmith Designs look like square envelopes, and collecting these allows you to forge new items at the blacksmith shop in Bree. Each Blacksmith Design will unlock a new item for you to forge. These can be collected in Story levels and in Middle-earth. Collect the Blacksmith Design in a Story level to receive a Mithril Brick.



Treasure Items
Some items that you can pick up in Story levels are surrounded by an orange light. These items are Treasure Items, and there are 3 in each Story level. Picking up these items will add them to your Treasure Trove, allowing you to use/wear them at any time. Some Treasure Items will also be used to complete Fetch Quests. Collect all 3 Treasure Items in a level to receive a Mithril Brick.


Fetch Quests
Some people in Middle-earth have a yellow circle in front of them. Walk up to them and press the "special" button to talk to them. They will then ask you to give them an object, either a Treasure Item or a forged Mithril item. If you have the object, talk to them again to give them the item and complete the quest.



Red Power Bricks
In some Fetch Quests, you'll be asked to give the person a forged Mithril item. Give that person the item and a Red Power Brick will appear for you to purchase. Red Power Bricks allow you to unlock Extras, which can be used to modify your gameplay in various ways. See the "Red Power Brick Extras" section below for info on each Extra.



Characters
After completing Story levels, certain characters will appear in Middle-earth for you to purchase. Simply walk up to the character and you'll be able to purchase them. If a character is an enemy, you might have to punch them a few times before you can purchase them.

Character Abilities

As you play through the levels, you will notice many things that you can do. However, not all characters will be able to do them! This is because each character has certain abilities, and in order to collect all the Treasure Chests, Treasure Item and Schematics, you'll need to make use of their abilities to unlock new areas of the levels to explore.

Here is a quick rundown of all the abilities characters can have. For detailed information on who has these abilities, see the "Characters" sections towards the bottom of this guide.

Arrow
Characters with this ability can shoot arrows into gold slots, allowing Elven characters to swing on them. Press and hold the "attack" button to target up to three slots, then release to fire arrows into them. Not all characters that have this ability can swing on the arrows after firing them.




Axe
Characters with this ability can destroy axe panels, which appear as cracked, white panels. Stand in front of an axe panel and press the "attack" button to smash it. This will usually destroy the object the panel is connected to, allowing you access to a new area.




If an axe panel is on the ground, it can be destroyed by performing a jump slam. Jump up, then press the "attack" button while you're in the air to slam into the ground, destroying the axe panel.






If an axe panel is on a wall, you'll need to toss Gimli at it to destroy it. Walk up to Gimli as a non-small character and press the "special" button to pick him up. Aim at the axe panel, then toss the "attack" button to toss him at the panel, destroying it.





Climbing
Characters with this ability can climb special white LEGO walls. Simply hop onto the wall to start climbing it, allowing you to reach new ledges.







Dig
Characters with this ability can dig up piles of dirt to reveal buried objects. Stand near the dirt and hold the "special" button to dig it up.







Elf
Elves possess greater agility than other characters, which allows them to jump higher. You can use this ability in places marked with green and yellow leaves to reach higher ledges.






Elvish characters can also swing on arrows that have been fired into gold slots. Hop onto an arrow to start swinging, then press the "jump" button to hop onto either the next arrow or the opposite ledge.





Explosive
Characters with this ability can destroy silver LEGO objects. Toss an explosive at them to destroy them.








Extinguish
Characters with this ability can use a bucket to put out fires. Stand in front of a pool of water and press the "special" button to fill up your bucket.







Head over to a small fire and press the "special" button to put it out. After putting out a fire, you will have to refill your bucket with water if you need to use it again.






Firestarter
Characters with this ability can light piles of wood to start a fire. When a fire can be lit, an orange/brown panel will appear in front of it. Stand on the panel and press the "special" button to light the fire.






Fisherman
Characters with this ability can fish at piers. Stand on the pier and press the "special" button to start fishing.







You will then face three button prompts. Hit the buttons when prompted and you'll retrieve an item from the water, as well as a small amount of studs. Wait until the button starts to glow (as in the screenshot) before hitting it and you'll receive a larger stud reward.




Gardner
Characters with this ability can grow plants. Stand in front of a seed and press the "special" button to grow the plant.







Illumination
Characters with this ability can light up dark alcoves, allowing them see what's inside. Simply walk up to the alcove and you should start to light it up. Characters without this ability will back away in fear if they approach a dark alcove.





Magic
Characters with this ability can use magic to manipulate purple objects. Hold the "special" button to lift the object up, then move it around using the d-pad.






Morgul
Characters with this ability can destroy Morgul LEGO objects, which appear as black-and-orange objects. Simply attack the Morgul LEGO object to damage or destroy it. Oftentimes, weapons that can destroy Morgul LEGO objects will glow bright white when near them. Characters without this ability can still attack Morgul LEGO objects, but they won't do any damage.

Character Abilities cont.

Rope
Characters with this ability can interact with rope points. Stand close to the rope point and press the "special" button to latch onto it. This will allow you to either climb onto a ledge or pull something down.






Sharp Shoot
Characters with this ability can hit small circular targets, usually with a bow and arrow. Press and hold the "attack" button to aim, then release to fire. Characters with this ability can target up to three targets at a time.





Small
Characters with this ability can use their small size to crawl through travel chutes. Stand in front of a travel chute and press the "special" button to crawl through. This will often give you access to new areas and ledges.





Super Strength
Characters with this ability can pull on super strength handles, which appear as orange handles on objects. Walk up to the super strength handle and spam the "special" button to tear it off. This will usually destroy the object.





Tracking
Certain items that you can pick up have what looks like green gas surrounding them. Characters with this ability can track these items, often to reveal a new item.






Press the "special" button to pick up the item. Green footprints will then appear. Follow the footprints around to find another item. When you get close, your character will get on all fours and move more slowly.

Tour of Middle-earth

Middle-earth is a vast world, and there is lots for you to do there. While there are lots of collectibles for you to find, there are also a few things you can do in Middle-earth that don't involve collecting. Let's take a tour!

You'll find Bag End in the Shire. When you first enter Middle-earth, you'll be unable to go inside. The door will open for you once you complete the Story.






Head inside and head through the opening on the right to reach the Character Customizer.








This is where you can create your Custom Characters (up to 10).








You can find the Blacksmith in Bree. The Blacksmith is the building with the hammer and anvil sign hanging above it, and is where you can forge Mithril Items.






Head inside and go to the left to see all of the Blacksmith Designs you have collected. Press the "special" button while standing in front of it and you'll be able to select an item to forge.






If you have enough Mithril Bricks, select an item and the Blacksmith will toss the Mithril Bricks into the fire. Hop on the bellows three times to melt the Mithril, allowing the Blacksmith to forge your item.






You can find the Minikit Room in Rivendell. It's the building with the Treasure Chest sign on it.








Head inside and you'll be able to view your progress on all of the Minikit Models.

Boss: Sauron
Starting Characters: Elrond (Second Age), Isildur, Elendil

Part 1 - Battle of Dagorlad

Time to take on the forces of Sauron! While you'll be attacked by plenty of Orcs, your target for now are the Orcs carrying banners on their backs. Defeat 5 of them and a second wave will appear. These Orcs are carrying shields, making them tougher enemies. When you battle them, spam the "attack" button to knock their shield away, allowing you to defeat them.

After those Orcs are defeated, Mount Doom will erupt, revealing Morgul LEGO pillars. Switch to Elendil and use his sword to destroy the pillars, allowing you to defeat the Orcs on top. Defeat the 3 Orcs on top of the Morgul pillars to trigger a cutscene.

Part 2 - Sauron

Looks like the Dark Lord himself has joined the fight. This fight is pretty simple. Avoid Sauron's attacks until his mace gets stuck in the ground. When his mace is stuck, switch to Elendil and use his sword to damage the mace. Do enough damage and you'll take out a heart. Repeat this process two more times to defeat Sauron.

Part 3 - Mount Doom

Minikit Model: Sauron

Interlude - The Journey Begins

Characters: Frodo, Sam

Our journey begins in the Shire, right in front of Bag End. You can't go inside just yet though, so follow the guide studs into Farmer Maggot's field to start the next level.

Unlocked Characters: Frodo, Sam

The Black Rider - Story Mode

Boss: Saruman
Starting Characters: Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin
Added Characters: Gandalf the Grey
True Adventurer: 16,000

Part 1 - Get off the road!

We need to avoid the gaze of that rider. You're currently in stealth mode, so you can't jump or move very fast. Head to the right and you'll see the rider up ahead. If you step into the moonlight, the rider will see you and you'll back away. However, if you're Frodo, you'll have to spam the "special" button to get back out of sight.

To scare off the rider, smack the nearby rock to knock off a smaller chunk. Pick it up and toss it at the bird nearby to startle the rider. Continue to the right and you'll find that the rider has stopped again. Dig up the nearby dirt to reveal another rock, then pick it up and throw it at the boulder to knock it down. This will spook the rider, allowing you to continue to the right.

The rider will then start pacing back and forth. Time your movements to the right, avoiding its gaze. If you need to, you can attack the tree to open it up, giving you a spot to hide. The rider will then stop on the bridge, preventing you from crossing the water. Crawl through the travel chute to reach the branch above you, then walk across the beam to startle the bird. This will scare off the rider, allowing you to continue.

Crawl back through the travel chute to reach the ground, then continue to the right. Grow the plant to block the rider's gaze, allowing you to continue to the right.

Part 2 - Saruman's Counsel

Looks like Saruman isn't going to be giving us very good advice. Spam the "attack" button and you'll fall back to the ground. Saruman will then start casting spells at you. Avoid his attacks until he weakens, then hold the "special" button to lift him up. Toss him into one of the objects in the room to damage him. Repeat this process two more times.

Part 3 - Avoiding Detection

We are now continuing our quest of scaring off the Black Rider, and we need to find three pieces of tile to place on the track. The first can be found to the left of the rock. Pick it up, then press the "special" button to add it to your inventory. Destroy the glowing mushroom and tree stump to reveal the other two tile pieces. Once all three tile pieces have been placed, push the boulder to the right to spook the rider.

Continue to the right and pick up the apple, then toss it at the branch to startle the owl, moving the rider to the right. Continue to the right and pick up the apple again, then toss it at the owl to scare off the rider. Grow the plant to grow a flower, then walk up the ramp and continue to the right. The rider will then appear on the bridge, preventing you from continuing.

Head to the near left corner to find a pier. Merry can fish from here, so do so to reveal a crab. Pick it up and throw it at the torch to set the rider on fire, scaring him off. Continue to the right and dig up the dirt to reveal a rock. Pick it up and toss it at the beehive to anger the bees. The bees will fly through the cobweb in the tree, destroying it.

Head inside the tree and head to the right in the log. The rider will then move to the right. A bird will knock down an apple (this will only happen if you've completed Part 2), so pick it up and toss it at the bird to scare off the rider. Continue to the right.

Part 4 - Run, Frodo!

Run! Move around to collect studs and avoid the Black Riders. Reach the end to complete the level.

Treasure Item (Ferryman's Cap)
Before heading into the river, head towards the screen and you'll find a path. Follow the path to reach a Morgul pillar. Destroy it to reveal LEGO pieces.

Minikit Model: Bree

Interlude - Strider

Characters: Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin

Having successfully escaped the Black Riders (for now), we can now head to Bree to meet Gandalf. Follow the guide studs down the road and you'll reach the village of Bree. Head over to the Prancing Pony and you'll find a young hobbit at the door.

In order to get inside, we're going to have to complete his Fetch Quest. Talk to him and he'll ask you to forge him a Mithril Trowel. Follow the guide studs and you'll find the blacksmith shop.

Head inside and you'll find the Blacksmith Design for the Mithril Trowel lying in the middle of the room. Pick it up and you'll be able to forge the Mithril Trowel. Head over to the left side of the room and press the "special" button to view all of the available Blacksmith Designs. For now, you'll only have access to the Mithril Trowel.

It costs two Mithril Bricks to forge, which you'll have after completing the first two Story levels. Select the Mithril Trowel and the blacksmith will toss the Mithril Bricks in the fire. Head to the right side of the fire and hop on the bellows a few times to melt the Mithril, allowing the blacksmith to forge the trowel. This will add the item to your inventory, allowing you to use it whenever you wish.

Once the Mithril Trowel has been forged, hold the "special" button to pull up your inventory wheel. Select the Treasure Trove option at the bottom to pull up the Treasure Trove. Select the Mithril Trowel and the door to the blacksmith shop will open, allowing you to leave.

Head back over to the Prancing Pony and give the Mithril Trowel to the hobbit outside. He will thank you, opening the door inside. Head in to trigger a cutscene.



After the cutscene, Aragorn has been added to the party. Follow the guide studs out of Bree and over to Weathertop. Head up the steps to start the next level.

Weathertop - Story Mode

Enemies: Ringwraith
Starting Characters: Sam, Merry, Pippin
Added Characters: Frodo, Aragorn
True Adventurer: 46,000

Part 1 - Second Breakfast

The hobbits are hungry, so it's time to cook! First, we need to get a fire going, and we'll need to find three pieces of firewood to do so. The first can be found by smashing the glowing plant in the back right corner. Pick up the first piece of firewood and place it in your inventory.

Head onto the ledge in the back and destroy the rock to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them onto the tiles, then push the rock to the right, revealing a travel chute. Crawl through it to reach a ledge, then destroy the plant to reveal another piece of firewood.

Add it your inventory, then crawl back through the travel chute to reach the ground. Head to the near right corner and destroy the brown plant to reveal the final piece of firewood. Add it to your inventory, then place all three pieces of firewood into the fire pit. Sam can light the fire, so do so.

We now need to find three ingredients to place in Sam's frying pan. Have Merry fish from the pier to reel in a fish. Have Sam pick it up and add it to his frying pan. Head to the near right corner and grow the plant, then smack it to knock a tomato loose. Have Sam pick it up and add it to his frying pan.

Crawl back through the travel chute in the back, then hop onto the bar and shimmy to the right. Drop down onto the tree, then smack the nest to knock down an egg. Drop down and add it to Sam's frying pan. Once all three ingredients are in the pan, stand by the fire and press the "special" button.

Part 2 - Climbing Weathertop

Head to the left and destroy the plants to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a bridge, allowing you to continue to the left. Cross it, then grow the plant to reveal some rocks. Pick them up and toss them at the plants on the left, knocking down the rocks.

Continue to the left and grow the plant to reveal a flower. Bounce up the leaf to reach the ledge, then crawl through the travel chute as Sam. Build the LEGO pieces into firewood, then light it to clear the path above you. Crawl back through the travel chute, then continue to the left.

Head up the stairs and grab one of the vines, then switch to your partner. Grab the other vine to knock down some LEGO pieces. Build them into a beam, then walk across it. Continue up the path, then destroy the plant on the left to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into firewood, then light it to reveal bars. Hop up them, then hop onto the ledge. Grow the plant to reveal a flower, then hop on it and continue to the right. Head up the path and through the opening.

Part 3 - The Nine

We're now in control of Frodo and Sam. Frodo is in the wraith world, and if a Ringwraith gets too close to him, you'll have to spam the "special" button to resist them. We need to build and light five fires. Since Frodo is in the wraith world, he can build the wraith LEGO pieces, which are the white glowing LEGO pieces.

Build the pile of wraith LEGO pieces into some firewood, then have Sam light it. Once you build a pile of firewood, the Ringwraiths will walk up to it and try to destroy it. Because of this, I recommend lighting each pile of wood as soon as you build it. There is another fire you can light in the center of the area.

To reveal the third, grow the plant on the left, then destroy it to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a fire, then light it. Destroy the cart in the back of the area to reveal more LEGO pieces, then build them into the fourth fire. Once you light it, head to the right and push the statue to the end of the tiles. This will reveal some wraith LEGO pieces. Switch to Frodo and build them into the final fire, then have Sam light it. Once all five fires are lit, a cutscene will play.

Aragorn has joined the party, and we need to get rid of the five Ringwraiths still bothering us. Smack any of the Ringwraiths with the lit torch Aragorn is carrying to scare them off. We need to do the same for the other four. To do this, we need to start another fire. Build the LEGO pieces in the back left corner into a fire, then light it.

Sam has a torch, so light it and use it to scare off another Ringwraith. We now need to find some more torches. You'll notice that there are several rocks lying on the ground. Pick one up and toss it at one of the three statues on the sides of the area to knock them down, revealing a torch. Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then light it in the fire and use it to scare off another Ringwraith. Scare off all five Ringwraiths to complete the level.

Interlude - The Council of Elrond

Characters: Sam, Aragorn, Arwen Evenstar (Ranger), Merry, Pippin

We need to get Frodo to Rivendell! Follow the guide studs to the Ford of Bruinen to trigger a cutscene.

After the cutscene, follow the guide studs into Rivendell, triggering another cutscene.

After the cutscene, Frodo will be all rested up. Follow the guide studs through Rivendell to reach the secret meeting.



After the Council of Elrond, the Fellowship of the Ring will be formed. You have Frodo, Sam, Gimli, Aragorn, Merry, Pippin, Gandalf the Grey, Legolas and Boromir in your party. Frodo also has Mithril armor, meaning that he will now lose a heart after taking two hits (instead of one).

Follow the guide studs out of Rivendell and up the mountain. You'll reach a small river, preventing you from continuing. Hit the targets on the left to knock down the rocks, creating a bridge. Cross the bridge, then continue up the mountain to start the next level.

Part 1 - Mountain Pass

Head to the right and you'll encounter some deep snow. Characters who are short (Gimli and the Hobbits) cannot walk through this snow and will have to be carried by someone else. Walk up to a short character and press the "special" button to pick them up.

Pick up Gimli and carry him through the snow, then smash the axe panel to reveal a travel chute. Crawl through it, then smash the axe panel on the ground to clear the snow above you. This will also reveal an axe panel on the wall.

Crawl back through the travel chute, then toss Gimli at the axe panel to smash it, revealing a ledge. Hop up the bars to reach the ledge, then push the rock to the end of the tiles. This will allow you to reach the ledge on the right. Hop on top of the rock, then onto the ledge.

Continue to the right and carry Gimli through the snow, then smash the axe panel to reveal a travel chute. Crawl through it and smash the axe panel to clear the snow above you, as well as reveal another axe panel. Crawl back through the travel chute, then smash the axe panel to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into steps, then hop up them to reach the ledge. Smash the axe panel to knock down some rocks, allowing you to continue to the right.

Continue to the right, then shoot the targets on the icicles to knock them down. Shimmy across the bar, then continue to the right to reach a campsite. We need to find three pieces of firewood. Destroy the boxes around the camp to reveal the firewood, then pick them up and place them in the fire.

Light the fire to melt the ice, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into a crossbow, then hop inside and press the "attack" button to fire a rope across the gap. Have Legolas walk up the rope, then shoot arrows into the sockets on the wall. Hop on the arrows and swing to the left, then shoot the target to rotate the rope, allowing the rest of the Fellowship to join you.

Pick up Gimli and toss him at the axe panel to the left, knocking down some rocks. Hop up them and continue up the path. Pick up Gimli and carry him through the snow, then crawl through the travel chute to reach a ledge. Smash the axe panel to knock down some rocks, allowing the Fellowship to pass over the snow.

Some LEGO pieces will also be knocked down, so build them into a fire. Light it to melt the ice in your way, then continue up the mountain (watch out for the falling rocks!). Once you reach the end of the path, toss Gimli at the axe panel to clear the path, then continue to the right.

Pick up Sam and Gimli and carry them through the snow, then dig up the dirt to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a travel chute, then crawl through it. Smash the axe panel to reveal some dirt, then dig it up to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a beam, then walk across it, watching out for the gusts of air. Hop up the ledges and you'll find another fire.

We need to find three more pieces of firewood, so smash up the nearby wooden shed to reveal them. Pick them up and place them in the fire, then light it to melt the nearby ice, revealing a plant. Grow it to reveal some platforms, allowing the rest of the Fellowship to join you.

Continue to the right and shoot the targets to knock down the icicles, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into an axe panel, then smash it to clear the path. Continue to the right.

Part 2 - The Doors of Durin

Time to find the entrance to Moria. Dig up the dirt nearby to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a fire pit. We need to find three pieces of firewood. To find the first, head to the far left side of the area to find a mine cart. Destroy it to reveal the first pieces of firewood. There is another mine cart to the left of the door, which you can destroy to reveal the second piece of firewood. The third piece of firewood can be found by destroying the wooden raft across from the door.

Once all three pieces of firewood are in the fire, light it to clear off the plants. We need to find some LEGO pieces to complete the door. Head to the far left side of the area, then use Legolas to hop onto the ledge by Gandalf. Shoot an arrow into the slot on the wall, then hop onto it and swing across the gap.

High jump onto the bar above you, then shimmy to the right. Drop down onto the ledge, then shoot an arrow into the socket on the wall. Hop on and swing across the gap, then continue to the right and cross the beam. Push the rock off the tiles to reveal LEGO pieces, then drop down and build them onto the door.

To get the rest of the pieces, head to the right side of the area and smash the axe panel to reveal a travel chute. Crawl through it, then destroy the objects on the ledge to knock down the boxes. Hop up the boxes, then climb up the rope to reach the ledge.

Destroy the box to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a rotary handle. Push it to rotate the tree, revealing a platform. Continue to the left and smash the axe panel to knock down some more LEGO pieces. Drop down and build them onto the door.

Part 3 - The Watcher

Shouldn't have disturbed the water! We need to rescue Frodo from the Watcher. Avoid its tentacles until one gets stuck on the ground. When that happens, attack the red flashing part to destroy the tentacle.

Once you destroy four tentacles, the Watcher will reveal itself. Pick up Gimli and toss him at the axe panel, then have Legolas shoot the Watcher's eye. Avoid the tentacle attacks, then repeat this process to take out the Watcher's other eye, completing the level.

Added Characters: Pippin
True Adventurer: 70,000

Part 1 - Fool of a Took

Pippin has manged to get himself stuck in the well, and we need to get him out. Destroy the white chests on either side of the well to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the well. Shoot the target on the right to lower a chest. We need to find a key to open it.

Head to the right and light the wood on fire to reveal the key. Pick it up and use it to open the chest, revealing a wheel. Pick it up and place it in the slot on the well. Head to the left and smash the axe panel to reveal a crank, then pick it up and place it in the slot by the well. Turn the crank to raise Pippin back up.

Part 2 - Orc Attack

All that noise Pippin made has alerted the Moria Orcs to our presence. Head over to the door and build the LEGO pieces to brace it. Shoot the targets on either side of the door to lower bars. Grab onto one, then switch to your partner and grab the other bar. This will lower a beam onto the door, bracing it. Unfortunately, this will not be enough, and Orcs will break through. Battle the Orcs as they appear, and eventually a cutscene will play.

After the cutscene, a Cave Troll will be wandering around. We need to defeat it. Head to the center of the area and you'll notice some LEGO pieces. Build them into a brown panel, then stand on it. The troll will roar at you, then smack the panel with its flail. Avoid the attack and the troll's flail will get stuck in the panel, damaging it.

Head to the left side of the room and high jump onto the ledge. Destroy the large rock to reveal another brown panel. Stand on it, then avoid the troll's attack. The flail will get stuck on the brown panel. Hop onto the chain, then shoot an arrow at the troll's face. This will destroy the brown panel, revealing LEGO pieces on the ground. Ignore them for now, then head over to the right side of the room. Do the same thing here as you did before to trigger a cutscene.

After the cutscene, Pippin will be on top of the troll. Spam the "attack" button to smack the troll's head. Eventually, the troll will stop moving and you'll be able to target its face. Switch to Legolas and shoot an arrow at it. The troll will then toss Pippin off.

Head to the left side of the area and build the LEGO pieces into a travel chute, then crawl through it to reach the ledge. Stand in the yellow circle and press the "special" button to hop back onto the troll. Spam the "attack" button to smack the troll, then switch to Legolas and shoot an arrow at it when you can. When the troll tosses you off, repeat this process on the right side of the room to finally defeat it.

Part 3 - Great Hall

We are now making our way to the Bridge of Khazad-dum, and a whole onslaught of Orcs are attacking us. Gandalf's barrier will take out most of the Orcs, but a few will slip through. Defeat the Orcs that slip through and you'll progress down the hall. The first wave consists of three Orcs, the second wave consists of five, and the third wave consists of seven. Once you've defeated the third wave, the Balrog will scare off the Orcs.

Head to the left down the path and towards the door. As you approach, a fire will start on a gear. Thankfully, Pippin can put it out. Fill his bucket in the pool of water on the left, then use it to put out the fire. Use Gandalf's magic to place the purple gear on the purple slot on the right, then smash the axe panel on the right to reveal LEGO pieces.

Build them onto the tiles, then push the cart into the wall. Destroy the barrel to the left of the door to reveal a crank, then pick it up and place it in the slot. Turn it to open the door, then head inside.

Part 4 - Collapsing Stairs

Head down the stairs to trigger a cutscene. After the cutscene, part of the stairs will be destroyed, and we need to get the Fellowship over to the far left. Toss Gimli across the gap to destroy the axe panel, revealing a travel chute. Crawl through it as Sam, then shimmy across the chain to the right.

Light the fire to knock over the stairs on the right, allowing Aragorn and Legolas to join the rest of the Fellowship. Climb the rope to rejoin the Fellowship, then shoot the two targets on the left to lower the platform. Continue to the left down the stairs.

Part 5 - Shadow and Flame

Gandalf is falling towards the Balrog, and we need to catch up to his sword. Hold the "jump" button to speed up your descent towards the sword. Once you grab your sword, continue your descent towards the Balrog.

Once you land on the Balrog, follow the button prompts to attack it. Once you damage it, you'll be thrown off. Repeat this process two more times.

The second and third times, you'll have to avoid the Balrog's fire breath. The Balrog will show when it is about to breath fire by inhaling. Move out of the way of the air and you'll avoid the fire. Once you damage the Balrog three times, you'll be sent back to the rest of the Fellowship.

Part 6 - Fly, you fools!

With Gandalf gone, it seems like a good idea to follow his advice. Head up the stairs to the right, then shoot the target to reveal a slot on the wall. Shoot an arrow into it, then hop on and swing across the gap. Head to the left and destroy the rock to knock down a ladder, allowing the rest of the Fellowship to join you.

Head over to the door in the back and smash the axe panel (this will only appear if you've completed Part 5) to open it. Head through to complete this long level.

Part 1 - Boromir's Temptation

You'll be in the wraith world for the majority of this section, and we need to scare Boromir off so we can make it up the path. If you get too close to Boromir, he will grab you, and you'll have to spam the "special" button to break free.

Grab the small rock on the right, then head up the path. Toss the rock at the bush behind Boromir to scare him off, then continue up the path. Crawl through the travel chute to reach the ledge above Boromir, then push the pillar to the edge of the tiles to scare Boromir off. Drop down and build the wraith LEGO pieces into stairs, then walk up them.

Smack the rock to knock off a piece, then pick it up and toss it at the hand statue in the back left. This will reveal some wraith LEGO pieces. Build them into a ramp, then walk up to reach the ledge. Attack the vines to knock over the statues, scaring Boromir off.

Continue to the right down the path, then destroy the rocks and trees to reveal wraith LEGO pieces. Build them into a catapult, then destroy the beam on the left to fire it. This will knock down the head of a statue behind Boromir, scaring him off. Continue up the path and pick up the rock, then toss it at the bush behind Boromir to startle him again.

Continue up the path, then destroy the rock to the left of Boromir to knock off a smaller piece. Throw it at the nest to the left to knock it down, revealing wraith LEGO pieces. Build them into a ramp, then walk up it to reach the ledge. Push the statue to the end of the tiles to scare Boromir off, then continue to the right.

Crawl through the travel chute, then smack the rock to knock off a smaller piece. Pick it up and toss it at the eagle statue above Boromir to knock it onto his head. This will snap him out of his trance, causing him to run off. Drop back down and head up the path, then run up the steps of the building. Spam the "special" button to resist the Eye of Sauron.

Part 2 - Searching for Frodo

We now have Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli in our party, and we're looking for Frodo. We need to find a torch to light a fire so we can clear the path ahead. Head to the right and destroy the oars on the ground to reveal a torch, then pick it up and head to the left. Light the torch at the fire, then use it to light the fire in the center of the area. This will destroy the rubble in your way, allowing you to continue up the path.

Head up the path, then high jump onto the ledge. Walk up the vine on the right, then shoot the target above you to drop the nest to the ground, revealing LEGO pieces. Drop down and build them into a trampoline, allowing your partners to reach the ledge. Continue up the path and smash the axe panel to destroy the debris, allowing you to continue.

Continue up the path, then throw Gimli at the axe panel on the statue to knock off its head. High jump on top of the statue, then shoot an arrow into the slot on the statue. Hop onto it and swing onto the opposite ledge, then push the pillar off the tiles. Drop down and smash the axe panel by the tiles to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into another pillar. Push the pillars to the back left corner of the tiles, then hop up them and continue up the path.

Smash the axe panel to knock down the tree, then continue up the path. Pick up Gimli and toss him at the axe panel to destroy the statues, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into a slot, then shoot an arrow into it. Hop onto the tree, then high jump onto the arrow and swing onto the ledge. Build the LEGO pieces up here into a pillar, then push it off the tiles, allowing your partners to join you. Have Aragorn track Sting (this will only appear if you've completed Part 1) to trigger a cutscene.

Part 3 - Uruk-hai Attack

Several Uruk-hai will attack us on the ground, but our real target are the Uruk archers. Some are on top of stone platforms, and you can destroy the pillars to knock them down. To defeat others, you'll have to have Legolas hit them with an arrow. This first clearing has three archers (two on stone platforms, one by himself on the right). Defeat the three archers and the path will clear, allowing you to continue into the next clearing.

This next clearing has four Uruk-hai you need to defeat. One is on the left (you'll need Legolas to hit him with an arrow) and the other three are on top of stone platforms on the right. Once you defeat those four, the rocks on the right will be destroyed, allowing you to continue into the final clearing.

In this next clearing, have Legolas take out the two archers on the left. Toss Gimli at the axe panel to create a ramp. This will cause two Uruk-hai to hop down, so defeat them. Once they're defeated, head up the ramp and defeat the final Uruk-hai.

Part 4 - Boromir's Last Stand

We now have Boromir, Merry and Pippin facing off against the leader of the Uruk-hai, Lurtz. The Uruk-hai will be trying to pick up Merry and Pippin. If you get picked up, switch to someone else and defeat the Uruk holding them to release them. Head to the left and crawl through the travel chute to reach the ledge Lurtz is on, then smack him to take out a heart. He will then toss you off the ledge, triggering a cutscene.

After the cutscene, Boromir will have an arrow sticking out of his chest. However, he's still fighting (he only has 3 hearts though)! The travel chute on the left will also be blocked off. However, accessing it is as simple as destroying the rocks in front of it, so do so. Crawl through the travel chute and smack Lurtz again to take off another heart.

After the cutscene, Boromir will have a broom sticking out of his chest. Despite this, he's still doing alright (he's now down to 2 hearts). The travel chutes will also be destroyed, so we'll need to find a new way up to Lurtz. Thankfully, an Uruk-hai will knock down the tree on the right, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into a diving board, then bounce up onto the ledge with Lurtz. Smack him again to take out his last heart.

After the cutscene, Merry and Pippin have been taken away by the Uruk-hai. Aragorn has appeared to help Boromir defeat Lurtz. Boromir now has a banana in his chest, and can't move very fast. He also only has one heart, so be careful if you're playing as him.

This fight is very simple. Lurtz will throw his shield. He will then drop down to get it, but have difficulty pulling it out of the ground. Smack him when he's pulling at his shield to damage him, taking off one heart. Repeat this process one more time and Lurtz will hop down to fight you for real.

Follow the button prompts to battle him. He will then pick you up. Switch to your partner and smack Lurtz to take out another heart. Repeat this process two more times to defeat him and complete the level.

The Fellowship of the Ring has been disbanded, and for now you only have control of Frodo and Sam. Follow the guide studs through Emyn Muil to start the next level.

Taming Gollum - Story Mode

Boss: Balrog, Gollum
Starting Characters: Gandalf the Grey; Frodo, Sam
True Adventurer: 90,000

Part 1 - Battle of the Peak

Before we bother with Gollum, we need to take care of the Balrog! Head to the left up the mountain and you'll find some colored blocks. Destroy the ice and rocks holding them in place, then use magic to move them onto the purple panel, creating steps. You don't need to create perfect stairs, you just need to arrange them so you can reach the ledge.

Hop up the blocks to reach the ledge, then continue up the path. Once you reach the tower, some steps will collapse, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into stairs, then climb up. Destroy the wooden beam holding up the next set of stairs to lower it, then continue to the top of the tower.

The Balrog will then appear to fight you. The Balrog has several different attacks that it can use. Aside from the usual ground smacks, it will also crack its whip across the area. Jump over the whip to avoid it.

Avoid the Balrog's attacks and eventually lightning will strike. Head over to the light blue circle and press the "special" button to channel the lightning through Glamdring (Gandalf's sword). Aim the lightning at one of the red panels on the Balrog's wings to damage it. Repeat this process two more times to defeat the Balrog (the final time, you'll have to direct the lightning at the Balrog's chest).

Part 2 - Raw and Wriggling

Approach Gollum and he will run off. Before he'll talk to us, we need to give him six fish. Pick them up and add them to your inventory, then toss them into the basket to lower the rock wall. The first fish can be found right in front of you. Another fish can be found just to your right (you need to complete Part 1 for this fish to appear). Pick up both fish and toss them in the basket. We can find the other four by doing a lap of this area.

Head to the right and you'll find a rope point. Have Sam latch onto it, then climb up onto the ledge. Destroy the plants to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a ladder. Climb up onto the ledge, then grab the fish and add it to your inventory. Continue to the right and you'll find a dark alcove. Frodo can now light up dark areas with the Phial of Galadriel, so head inside to scare Gollum off. Have Sam follow him inside, then dig up the dirt to reveal the fourth fish.

Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then continue to the right. Grow the plant to knock a pillar onto the tiles, then push it to the right. Hop up the leaves on the plant, then hop onto the pillar. Hop onto the ledge on the right, then continue. Dig up the dirt to reveal a fire pit. We need to find three pieces of firewood.

Destroy the brown plants on the right to reveal one set of firewood, then destroy the brown plants on the left to reveal another. Smash through the rock wall on the left to reveal an alcove, then destroy the rock on the ledge to reveal the last piece of firewood. Once all three pieces of firewood are in the fire, light it to clear the plants off the bars. Hop up the bars to reach the ledge, then grab the fifth fish.

Continue to the right, then destroy the pile of plants and bones to reveal a dirt pile. Dig it up to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a rope point. Latch onto it as Sam to reach the ledge, then grow the plant to create some platforms for Frodo. Crawl through the travel chute, then grab onto the bar and shimmy to the right. Drop down onto the ledge, then light up the dark alcove to reveal the final fish.

Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then drop down and continue to the right. Push the rock to the end of the tiles and you'll be back at your starting point. Toss the four fish you have in your inventory into the basket. Once all six fish are in the basket, the wall will be fully lowered, allowing you to head into the clearing.

Part 3 - It Burns Us!

Looks like Gollum still wants fish. Pick up the gold fish on the ground and toss it to Gollum. He will then drop down and start eating it. Have Sam stand in the lit-up circle on the ground and press the "special" button to latch onto Gollum. After a brief struggle, Gollum will break free and attack Sam. Switch to Frodo and smack Gollum to take off one heart. We need to find a way to get more fish.

Head into the dark alcove in the back of the area and destroy the plant inside to reveal a rope. Have Sam pick it up, then dig up the nearby dirt pile to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a rope point, then latch onto it to pull down the nest, revealing a hook.

Pick it up and combine it with the rope, then hop up the ledges on the left. Latch onto the rope point and climb onto the ledge, then head to the right and destroy the plant to reveal a stick. Combine it with the rope and hook to create a fishing rod.

Drop down off the ledge and fish at the pier on the right to reveal another fish. Toss it at Gollum, then quickly repeat the process from earlier to take out another heart. Do this one more time to take out his last heart, completing the level.

Minikit Model: Silvertine Peak

Interlude - Follow Smeagol

Characters: Frodo, Sam; Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli

At this point in the Story, you can decide where you want to go next. You can either continue the journey of Frodo and Sam, or you can switch over to Aragorn and company and continue their journey. For the purposes of this guide, let's stick with Frodo and Sam for now. Simply follow Gollum down the path and into the marshes to start the next level.

The Dead Marshes - Story Mode

Enemies: Haradrim
Starting Characters: Frodo, Sam
Added Characters: Faramir, Madril
True Adventurer: 66,000

Part 1 - Come Hobbits, Come!

Walk up to Gollum and he will walk through the water, leaving behind a greenish trail. This is the safe path through the water, allowing you to walk through the marsh. Follow Gollum to the next island and he'll run off again.

The path through the marsh will then be blocked by a fire. We need to find a bucket to put it out. Dig up the dirt nearby to find it, then pick it up and add it to your inventory. Fill it up in the nearby pool of water, then put out the fire to clear the path.

Follow Gollum to the next island and he will hop across some plants. A fire will spring up behind him, so we'll need to find a pool of water to fill the bucket with. Grow the plant on the left, then bounce on the leaf to reach the ledge. Light the fire by the tree to knock it down, revealing a pool of water. Walk down the tree and fill up your bucket, then walk back up. Drop down and put out the fire, then hop across the plants to reach Gollum.

He will then walk to the next island, leaving another fire behind him. Head to the right and you'll see a skeleton submerged in the water. Walk across the beams to raise up the skull, revealing another beam. Walk across it to reach a pool of water, then fill up your bucket. Return to the left and put out the fire, then follow the safe path through the water to reach another island.

Gollum will then set off again, revealing another fire in the water. You'll find a pool on the right, but it doesn't have any water in it. Send the character without the bucket across the plant to the right, then step on the button to fill the pool with water. Switch to the character with the bucket, then fill it up and put out the fire. If you step off the bucket, the water in the pool will disappear.

Continue through the marsh and Gollum will run off again, leaving another fire behind. Head over to the tree in the back and latch onto the rope point to knock down some leaves, creating a bridge. Walk across it, then head right to find another skeleton. Head inside and latch onto the rope point to raise up the skull, revealing a beam. Cross the beam and fill up your bucket, then put out the fire and continue through the marsh.

Gollum will then run off again, revealing one last fire. Hop onto the plant to reach the island, then head into the dark alcove at the base of the tree to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a rope point, then latch onto it to fill up the pool with water. Fill up your bucket, then head to the right and put out the fire. Continue to the right to finally catch up to Gollum.

Part 2 - Wraiths on Wings

We now need to keep hidden from the Nazgul. He will fly around for a bit before flying directly overhead. When he flies overhead, the Fellbeast he is riding on will roar. If you are not hiding, you will be killed by the roar. If all of your party successfully hides, you'll be able to move on to the next island.

Frodo has an Elven Cloak, which he can use to hide himself. Simply equip it from your inventory and you'll disguise yourself as a bush. Sam should hop into the tree stump to hide, while Gollum will take care of himself. You'll move through four islands this way.

On the fifth island, Frodo will have to light up the dark alcove so him and Sam can hide inside. After successfully hiding on the fifth island, follow Gollum to the right to reach another island. Head to the right and latch onto the rope point to swing across the gap. Stand on the platform to raise up another platform, allowing your partner to continue to the right. Destroy the base of the tree to knock it down, allowing everyone to continue to the right.

Continue following Gollum and you'll reach an island blocked by a tree. Light a fire to destroy the tree, then hide from the Nazgul. After successfully hiding, follow Gollum through the water to the right to reach another island.

Continue to the right on the island to reach a tree. Latch onto the rope point to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a bridge. Cross the bridge and continue to the right, then grow the plant. Bounce up the leaf to reach the ledge with Gollum. Continue to the right.

Part 3 - Rangers of Ithilien

Time to take out some Oliphants. There are two of them walking around. Grab the ropes hanging off one Oliphant, then climb up. If you're having trouble grabbing the ropes, you can destroy the trees in the center of the area to reveal LEGO pieces that you can build into trampolines.

Once you reach the top, defeat the enemies and climb the rope to reach the top ledge. If there is no rope leading to the top ledge, destroy the barrel on the left to reveal one. Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then latch onto the rope point to reach the top ledge. Spam the "attack" button to defeat the captain, neutralizing the Oliphant. Repeat this process to take out the other Oliphant, completing the level.

Part 1 - The Deeping Wall

We need to get up on the wall. Shoot the target on the left to knock down some LEGO pieces, then build them into gears. Smash the axe panel on the ground to your right to reveal a crank, then pick it up and add it to your inventory.

Place the crank in the slot, then turn it to reveal some LEGO pieces. Build them into platforms, then hop up them to reach the ledge. Hop up the ledges, then smash the axe panel to clear the remaining boxes. Hop up to the top of the deeping wall to trigger a cutscene.

After the cutscene, we need to take care of the ladders. There are three types of ladders. Some ladders will have two hooks holding them onto the wall. Destroy the hooks to knock over the ladder. Other ladders have an axe panel in front of them. Smash the axe panel to knock down the ladder. The last type of ladder has an Uruk-hai standing on top. Have Legolas shoot an arrow at the Uruk to knock down the ladder.

After knocking down the first wave of ladders, four more ladders will appear. Three of the ladders can be knocked down normally. To knock down the ladder on the right, crawl through the travel chute to reach the ledge. Push the box off the tiles to reveal LEGO pieces, then drop down and build them into an axe panel. Smash it to knock down the ladder.

After knocking down the second wave, five more ladders will be raised up. To knock down the ladder in the center, throw Gimli at the axe panel to smash it. The other four ladders can be knocked down normally. Take out the three waves of ladders to trigger another cutscene.

After the cutscene, the Uruk-hai have breached the wall. We need to retreat to the keep. Smash the axe panel on the left to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into stone steps. Hop up them to reach the ledge above you, then destroy the rack of spears to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a slot, then shoot an arrow into it.

Hop onto it and swing onto the ledge on the left, then push the rock off the tiles, allowing Aragorn and Gimli to join you. Hop up the ledges, then smash the axe panel to clear the rubble. Continue to the left and head inside.

Part 2 - Defend the Keep

Pick Gimli up and toss him at the axe panel on the Uruk's shield to break their ranks, then defeat the remaining Uruk-hai. Destroy the battering ram to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the door to brace it.

You'll then switch over to Legolas, who is on top of the keep. Shoot arrows at the Uruks who appear on top of the ladders to knock them down. After knocking down three ladders, another ladder will appear, being held to the wall by grappling hooks. Destroy the hooks to reveal a rope, as well as some LEGO pieces. Build them onto the tiles, then push the box off the edge, revealing LEGO pieces by the door.

Switch to Aragorn and Gimli and build the LEGO pieces into a platform. Hop on, then climb the rope and hop onto the ledge.

Part 3 - Forth, Eorlingas!

Enemies: Mordor Orc, Uruk-hai
Starting Characters: Gollum, Frodo, Sam, Faramir
Added Characters: Merry, Pippin
True Adventurer: 85,000

Part 1 - Ruined City

Your party is split up into two groups. Faramir is by himself in the foreground, while Frodo, Sam and Gollum are in the background. You are technically in the same area, but your paths will never cross. For this reason, I've kept this area as one part, but I've separated it out so you can more easily see when you switch locations.

We'll start with Frodo's group. Crawl through the travel chute on the left to reach the ledge, then switch to Faramir.

Head to the right and you'll find a gap in the wall, through which you'll see a target on the right. Shoot it to knock down a pillar, allowing Frodo and company to cross. Switch back to them.

Hop across the pillar to the right, then continue to the right. Latch onto the rope point to clear the path. You'll also reveal a target above you. Switch back to Faramir.

Head to the right and a large rock will crash into the wall, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them onto the tiles, then arrange the pillars so you can hop up them. Hop up the pillars, then shoot the target across the gap to raise up the gate by Frodo. Switch over to them.

Head into the passage, then switch back to Faramir.

Shoot the target that appears on the right to raise up the other gate, allowing Frodo and company to exit the passage. Switch over to them.

Exit the passage, then continue to the right. You'll see an Orc in the tower with a sword. We need that sword to cut the ropes on Gollum's hands. Light up the dark alcove, then destroy the boarded up door to reveal LEGO pieces. Build them into a travel chute, then crawl through it to reach the ledge. Head to the left and a rock will hit the tower, defeating the Orc. Latch onto the rope point in the tower to reveal some LEGO pieces. Build them into a board, then bounce on it to reach the next ledge. Switch over to Faramir.

The rocks to your right will be destroyed, allowing you to continue. Build the LEGO pieces into a ladder, then shoot the Orc standing on the ledge (he will drop barrels on you and knock you down if you don't defeat him). Climb the ladder, then shoot the target on the tower to knock down some LEGO pieces for Frodo. Switch back to them.

Build the LEGO pieces into a ladder, then climb up to reach the ledge with the sword. Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then head over to Gollum. Press the "special" button near him to cut the ropes binding his hands. This will allow him to climb up special walls. Climb up the wall on the right, then turn the crank to open the gates, allowing Frodo and Sam to join you. Continue to the right and you'll find another wall for Gollum to climb. However, there are two Orcs on top throwing barrels down at you. Time to switch back to Faramir.

Head to the right and some Orcs will bust through the rocks, allowing you to continue. Continue to the right and head up the stairs to reach the ledge. Shoot the targets on the right to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the tiles. Push the pillar to the left to reveal an opening, from which you can take out the two Orcs across the gap. Once the Orcs are toast, switch back to Gollum.

Now that the Orcs are gone, climb up the wall, then push the pillar off the tiles to smash the rock, revealing a plant. Grow it, then bounce on the leaf to reach the ledge. Light a fire to clear the path, then continue to the right. A Nazgul will then appear, riding a Fellbeast. If Frodo gets too close, you'll have to spam the "special" button to resist the Ring. Switch back to Faramir.

The gate to your right will be broken down by Orcs, so defeat them and continue to the right. Destroy the wooden beams to knock down a section of the wall, giving you a clear shot at the Fellbeast. Shoot the target on its chest to scare it off. Switch back to Frodo.

Continue to the right and dig up the dirt to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the structure on the right. Smash the rocks on the pier, then have Gollum fish to reveal the crank. Place it in the slot, then turn it to open the gate. Continue to the right and the Nazgul will appear again. Switch back to Faramir.

Continue to the right and part of the wall will be knocked away, giving you a clear shot at the Fellbeast. Shoot the target on its chest to scare it off. Switch back to Frodo.

Destroy the bases of the three pillars to knock them down, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into stairs, then walk up. Continue to the right and the Nazgul will reappear. Switch back to Faramir.

The Fellbeast revealed some LEGO pieces to your right the last time you shot it, so build them into a ladder. Climb up, then hop up the bars to reach the ledge. Shoot the target on the Fellbeast's chest.

Part 2 - March of the Ents

You are now in control of two Ents, and we need to wreck our way through Isengard so we can break the dam and release the river. Head to the right and you'll find a large gap. Attack the large tower to knock it down, creating a bridge. Walk across it, then continue to the right.

Eventually, an Uruk-hai will light a barrier on fire, preventing you from continuing. Pick up the water tower on the right side of the barrier and toss it at the fire to put it out, allowing you to continue.

Head to the back of the area to find the dam, then pick up boulders and toss them at the towers to knock them down, creating ramps. Walk up to the dam and stand in the light next to each support. Spam the "special" button to tear it off. Tear off both supports to end the level.

Part 1 - Minas Morgul

We need to keep a careful eye on Frodo. When you're not controlling him, he will be slowly walking towards Minas Morgul. If he gets too close, you'll have to spam the "special" button to resist the Ring. We need to get up to the steps on the left.

Head into the dark alcove to the left of the statues by Minas Morgul to reveal a patch of dirt. Dig it up to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a rotary handle. Push it to rotate the statue, revealing a rope point. Latch onto it to knock down the statue, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them onto the statue on the right, then light the fire to knock the statue down. Build the LEGO pieces that appear onto the stairs.

To build the other half, head to the far left and have Gollum climb the wall. Destroy the glowing boards to knock down the pillar, allowing Sam to reach the ledge. Hop up and dig up the dirt to reveal a skull, then pick it up. Toss it at the rocks across the gap to knock them down, revealing a rope point.

Hop onto it to reach the ledge on the right, then head inside the dark alcove. Destroy the basket inside to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the tiles. Push the rock off the ledge to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the stairs. With both parts of the stairs built, hop up and start climbing.

Part 2 - Very Far to Fall

Time to make our way up the stairs. Head to the right and hop across the ledge, then shimmy to the right on the bar. Drop down onto the stairs, then continue climbing up. At the top, head into the dark alcove in front of you to light it up, then climb up the wall to reach the ledge above you. Push the rock off the ledge, then drop back down.

Head to the right and destroy the tan pillar buried in the ground to reveal a dirt pile. Dig it up to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them onto the tiles. Push the rock to the right, allowing you to reach the next set of stairs. Hop up, then continue to climb.

At the top, head to the right and light up the dark alcove, then destroy the fanged chest to reveal a rock. Pick it up and toss it at the web on the left to reveal a rope point, then latch onto it to knock down the rocks.

Attack the wall to knock down the webs, then climb up to reach the ledge. Destroy the large cobweb to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a lever. Hop onto it to knock down the rock, clearing the path ahead.

Drop down and continue to the right, then crawl through the travel chute to reach the ledge above you. Grow the plant to knock down the pillar on the right, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them into stairs, then continue to climb up.

Part 3 - The Tunnel

Head to the right to find the entrance to the tunnel, then head inside. Continue through the tunnel and eventually some eggs will hatch, leaving a bunch of spiders in your way. Gollum is afraid of these guys, and will back away if he gets too close. The Phial of Galadriel will repel the spiders, so have Frodo lead the way to scare the spiders off and clear the path.

The path will then be blocked by some debris. Smash through it, then continue into the next room. Scare away the spiders on the wall on the right, then climb up and push the rock to the edge of the tiles. This will clear off the travel chute below you, allowing Frodo to join you.

Continue down the path, clearing the webs and spiders along the way. You'll eventually reach a large skeleton. Destroy it to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into bars. Hop up them to reach the ledge, then destroy the skeletons to reveal LEGO pieces.

Part 1 - Let him go!

Looks like we're teaming up with an Orc! In order to attack Shelob, we need both Sting and the Phial of Galadriel. Walk up to them and pick them up, then walk up to Shelob. A gold circle will appear in front of her. Stand in it and press the "special" button, then follow the button prompts to stab Shelob.

She will then retreat onto the wall. Toss the Phial of Galadriel at her to knock her down, then pick the Phial back up. Walk up to Shelob and press the "special" button, then follow the button prompts to stab her again. Repeat this process one more time (you'll have to toss the Phial at Shelob twice to knock her down) to force her to retreat.

Part 2 - The Tower

We need to get out of here. Latch onto the rope point on the light fixture hanging from the ceiling to reveal a rock. Pick it up and toss it at the light to knock it down, revealing a hole in the floor. Grab onto the rope and slide down, then head into the dark alcove on the left to find a gear. Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then place it in the slot on the wall.

This will reveal two ropes. Grab onto one, then switch to your partner and grab the other one to open the gate. Continue down the stairs and you'll reach a massive brawl between Orcs and Uruk-hai. Defeat all the enemies, as well as the Orcs that show up later. Eventually, more enemies will smash through the door on the right, allowing you to head inside.

Part 3 - Disguises

We need to find four pieces of armor so we can make disguises for Frodo and Sam. Head to the right and you'll find a rock on the ground. Pick it up and toss it at the pipe on the wall to destroy it. This will soak the Orc in green liquid, causing him to hop in the shower and toss out his armor. Have either Frodo or Sam pick it up and put it on, then continue to the right.

You'll find two Orcs standing by the gate. When we've gotten our disguises, we'll have to talk to these Orcs in order to open the gate. To the right of the Orcs, you'll find a place to light a fire. Start a fire, then grab the rope on the right to extend a curtain. This will allow the fire to spread, destroying the structure and revealing LEGO pieces.

Build them onto the catapult, then hop inside as Sam to reach the ledge on the right. Latch onto the rope point to reach the ledge, then head to the right. Smash the axe holding up the barrels to send them crashing down the stairs, defeating the Orc at the bottom. This will reveal some LEGO pieces, as well as knock off his helmet.

Have either Frodo or Sam put on the helmet, then build the LEGO pieces into a ladder. Climb up to reach the ledge, then head to the left. An Orc is standing guard here, and will raise the gate if he spots you. Thankfully, Frodo can use his Elven Cloak to sneak past. Equip the Elven Cloak to disguise yourself as a box, then head to the left to sneak past the Orc.

Climb the ladder to reach a ledge, then destroy the basket on the left to reveal a rock. Pick it up and add it to your inventory, then destroy the barrel on the right to reveal a stick. Combine the stick and the rock to create a rock hammer, which acts as an axe.

Smash the axe panel on the ground to create a hole in the floor, then drop down inside to reach the Orc guarding the gate. Defeat him, then turn the crank to open the gate, allowing you to leave the room. Have the character without a helmet grab the helmet laying in the room and put it on.

We just need to find one more piece of armor. Exit the room and continue to the left, then light the wood on fire to clear the path. This will also lower a chain, allowing you to quickly climb back up if you fall.

Continue to the left and you'll find two small boxes. Push them to the edge of the tiles to knock them down, revealing LEGO pieces. Build them onto the tiles, as well as a bar on the pillar. Push the pillar to the far right side of the tiles, then smash the barrier to reveal an alcove. Grab the final piece of armor inside.

Once both Frodo and Sam have disguises, head over to the Orcs guarding the gate. Stand in front of one and press the "special" button to talk to them. Switch to your partner and do the same with the other Orc to complete the level.

Part 1 - The Way is Shut

Aragorn has received Anduril from Elrond, and this allows him to destroy Morgul LEGO objects. As you walk through the area, you'll notice certain spots in the mist where the mist forms a circle. If you step in the circle, you'll have to spam the "attack" button to ward off the ghostly hands that are trying to grab you.

There are other places in the mist where it looks like the mist is sprouting from the ground. If you walk through these areas, soldiers of the dead will attack you. Only Aragorn can damage them, so be careful.

Hop onto the box and onto the ledge, then destroy the Morgul pillars to clear the path. Continue along the path, then smash the axe panel to clear the rock wall. Continue down the path to reach another large clearing.

Destroy the Morgul pillar on the right to knock down the statue, then push it to the left on the tiles to reveal a ladder. Climb up to reach the ledge, then have Legolas walk across the tightrope. Switch to Aragorn and pick up Gimli, then toss him over to Legolas so he can reach the opposite ledge. Smash the axe panel to reveal LEGO pieces, then build them into a travel chute. Crawl through it to reach the opposite ledge, then turn the rotary handle to open the gate. Head inside.

Part 2 - The Witch-king

We need to take out the Witch-king, but first, we need to defeat his Fellbeast. Thankfully, it's rather simple to defeat. Avoid its attacks and it will eventually slam its head into the ground. When it does this, it will get dizzy. Walk up to it and attack its head a few times to damage it. Repeat this process two more times to decapitate it.

After the cutscene, we now need to battle the Witch-king. You'll notice a brown panel in the center of the area. Stand on the panel and the Witch-king will attack you with his mace. Dodge the attack and the mace will get stuck in the ground, leaving the Witch-king vulnerable. Smack him to damage him.

Build the LEGO pieces on the right side of the area into a brown panel, then repeat this process to damage the Witch-king again. Destroy the bushes on the left to reveal the last brown panel, then repeat the process to damage the Witch-king a third time.

Unlocked Characters: Mouth of Sauron, Sauron

---------Exploring Middle-earth---------

After completing the final Story level, you'll have access to Middle-earth Free Play. This means that you'll be able to explore the entirety of Middle-earth with whatever characters you currently have unlocked. Hold the "tag" button and you'll pull up the character menu, allowing you to select whichever characters you want. With your entire character roster now open to you, you'll be able to unlock a lot more of the collectibles hidden throughout Middle-earth.

Scattered throughout Middle-earth are Map Stones, one for each area of Middle-earth. I have divided up the exploration sections to correspond to the various Map Stones. At the beginning of each section of the walkthrough, I have included a map of that area. This map shows the locations of all collectibles that can be found in that area. I decided to put them all on the same map because the items do not disappear after they have been found, so I don't have a blank slate that I can add images to. I have tried to label the maps as clearly as possible. If something isn't clear, let me know in the comments.

Once you activate a Map Stone, you'll be able to fast travel to it at any time by selecting it from the map. When you fast travel, you can also select the time that you want to travel to (either Day or Night). Some items can only be collected at certain times of day. While hovering over an image on the map, you might notice either a sun or moon logo appear. Items with a sun can only be collected in the Day, while items with a moon can only be collected at Night.

There are many Mithril Bricks in the game, and they're listed as Mithril Brick 1, Mithril Brick 2, etc. in the walkthrough (this also applies to other collectibles). As such, having a map showing nothing but images of Mithril Bricks really doesn't tell you much. If you know which Mithril Brick you are having trouble with, how are you supposed to know which one in my walkthrough it is? To help solve this problem, I have labelled the images on the map with the same numbers that correspond to the collectibles in the sections below. For example, the Mithril Brick labelled #1 corresponds to Mithril Brick 1 in the walkthrough.

Keep in mind that I will not be super specific about precise locations. For example, I won't say "starting at Mount Doom, take a right until you reach the...". The maps are there for a reason, and the labels should be enough to tell you where you need to go. If you are having trouble finding something specific, feel free to let me know and I'll clarify in the guide.

Because I am not super specific with the locations of each item, I highly recommend using the map to lead you to each item. Hover over an item on the map and select it, then select it again to "set destination". This will create a trail of guide studs that will lead you to the item. If you don't know where to begin, I highly suggest using this feature. It will make a lot of my explanations easier to follow.

These Red Power Bricks can be collected by forging Mithril Items and giving them to certain people in Middle-earth. Below I have listed all 20 Red Power Bricks, including where to get them and what they do. I have also included the Mithril Item that you need to have forged, in order to help you see what Red Power Bricks you currently have access to. For more information on how to collect each Red Power Brick, see the sections under "Exploring Middle-earth".

[legogamesguy]

Yes, I seem to remember having issues with that as well. I am not sure of the fix off the top of my head, but try lowering your graphics settings and enabling/disabling VSync and that may help.

[Baraka]

thx

[legogamesguy]

There are several different options, but I find the easiest to be purchasing the Berserker character in Helm's Deep.

[Baraka]

where i can earn character or item to destroy silver bricks?

[Lucrative Business Opportunity]

Mount Doom specific things:
1. Collect treasure chest 8 during Story mode, then in Freeplay you can just completely skip the corner in which first fight with Gollum happens, saving a bunch of time. Moving through the top also skips a bunch of movement puzzles, again saving time.
2. Use Mithril Boxing Gloves with Sam to get Magma Rock. You can't change characters in this section. I actually thought that the game glitched and put me in Story mode, and restarted the level
3. Gollum can be very hard to throw off during the last fight. It seems it can only be done in certain trigger zones, so try to not move Frodo around. Do not engage Gollum in an actual fight as Frodo. During the last part of the fight, moving Frodo towards building blocks seems to work best.

[Lucrative Business Opportunity]

Some general tips (1/2):
1. Game shows the number of used, not collected, mithril blocks in the right corner. So 234/250 means that you did not craft the last item (or maybe multiple). To get "total collected" number you need to add the ones in the "bag" on the left.
2. Some collectables do not get replaced with studs. For example, mithril block in Amon Hen or blacksmith design in Minas Tirith. It is also possible to collect 11/10 minikit parts in Mount Doom
3. Some places expect you to ride something (Bill the pony, chairlift) to get a collectable. You only need to mount to spawn it, so riding the very slow pony is not required.
4. 30 FPS fixes a lot of problems with movement (looking at you, Gollum), but sometimes even that is not enough. Make sure to walk to the very edge of the platform when doing jumping "puzzles".
5. I had to get a Map Stone a second time to get the achievement for getting all. Game is glitchy, expect it

[Lucrative Business Opportunity]

Some general tips (2/2):
6. Most environment objects have 3 health, so Mithril Cluster Bow will give you the full money for them in one hit (though sometimes objects will remain at 2/3 with all money dropped already). Jumping attacks also work well and have the bonus of sometimes hitting multiple objects. Do note that some objects work on hits, not health, so damage won't matter to them.
7. During Freeplay always having Sam on second player is incredibly useful, as Sam has the most interactions with puzzles in one small and hardy package.
8. When Freeplaying levels, game seems to put most often selected characters on the wheel. Try to have Berserker , Sam, Gandalf (or any wizard), Legolas (or any elf with bow), Gimli (or Gloin), Aragorn with Gondor armor, and Gollum. Merry and Pippin may get some action, but they are rarely needed and are easily replaced with items.
9. Do not get the last minikit part without all stud multipliers, or you will miss out on several billion studs.

[legogamesguy]

Huh. Interesting.

[Dragis]

Yes, it appears as completed in the map but I can pick it again, despite not actualy increasing my mithril block number after the animation. It is the one that is gathered after completing the wack a mole in Amon Hen

[legogamesguy]

Have you checked the maps and identified which Mithril brick it is?
