The greatest fun I've ever had on a strategy game. It might be one of the most simple strategy games in terms of mechanics and strategy, but it was in a world that I absolutely adore. Being able to play as the fellowship, Rohan, Gondor, elves, Mordor and isengard was a dream come true.
Being able to play the missions from the movies felt like being in the movie.
