I like the idea of a LOTR checker set. Chess is too complicated for my daughter right now. The game is as fun as checkers can be and it does teach how to develop tactical strategies in a game situation. Checkers, like chess, is one of the few board games where no luck is involved. As the other reviewer said below, the rings are plastic, not metal. Very disappointing because they look like metal on the package. Also, since they are plastic, it makes the game very over priced.

As expected, the rings are plastic, but that is not a total waste. The map in the underlying board is quite unique. I am an avid LOTR fan, and I enjoy many of their products. If you are just a normal fan, willing to play a cute game of checkers..have some fun! If you don’t need the tin, I have seen the exact set at K*Mart for $7.99, but the checker board is cut, so it folds in four (not sure of this set)

I purchased this game thinking it would be a nice addition to my LOTR paraphernalia. I was sorely dissappointed to see the Rings are plastic, not the metal I expected. Be aware.
