The Lord of the Rings Dice Building Game is a dice-building game produced by WizKids. It is based on The Lord of the Rings film trilogy directed by Peter Jackson, and the book that inspired it, written by J. R. R. Tolkien. The game mechanics are often compared to Quarriors! though they are not identical.
Players must work together to assemble an army of dice representing the men, dwarves, elves, and hobbits to defeat the forces of Sauron. Some characters are tempted by the power of The One Ring and might work against the group however. Players take turns playing as the Ringbearer or playing as Sauron.
