In the "open world" mode, the game features one or two changeable characters following the player (or players in the cooperative mode). The game features a blacksmith, who can be found in Bree, to make tools out of Mithril (represented by silver Lego bricks). There are also various side quests that can be found within the open world map, such as fetching a lost tool for a non-player character. While every area of the map is accessible on foot, the quickest way to get across the large area is to use the "fast travel" mode from within the Map screen (found by utilizing the start menu or simply pressing the select button). Free Roam mode spans the entirety of the films (but does not allow access to Mirkwood or the lands east, or south of Mordor, giving the player the ability to literally walk from the Shire to Mordor. It features a split-screen free roam like Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes. 'Open world' mode is not available on either the PS Vita or Nintendo DS versions.
Based on The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, the game follows the original storylines of The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King, taking players through the epic story events, "re-imagined with the humour and endless variety of Lego play". The game utilises music and voice acting taken from all three films of the film trilogy. The developer Traveller's Tales has stated they toned down the slapstick humor found in other Lego-licensed titles. The game follows the events in the films, however like the Lego Star Wars series, some scenes from the films have been altered to become more family friendly or just provide comic relief to the player. The player, as always, can play with family and friends with easy access drop-in, drop-out gameplay option. The game is more like a role-playing game than previous Lego video game titles because the player has an inventory that grows throughout play. This was the last LEGO game to be released on Wii.
There are more than 80 playable characters, including Frodo, Gandalf, Legolas, and many others to discover and unlock including Tom Bombadil, a character who appears in the books but never appeared in the film trilogy. Players experience the The Lord of the Rings heroes come to life in an all new way, as they deliver original dialogue taken directly from the films. Unlike in the Lego The Lord of the Rings sets, the Hobbits appear barefoot. You can also create your own character, by travelling to Hobbiton and entering the Hobbit House with the green door, which is Frodo and Bilbo's house; Bag End.
