Story[]
In the Second Age of Middle-earth, the lords of Elves, Dwarves and Men are given Rings of Power. Unbeknownst to them, the Dark Lord Sauron forges the One Ring at Mount Doom, instilling much of his power in it, to dominate the other Rings and conquer Middle-earth. A final alliance of Men and Elves fights Sauron's forces in Mordor. Isildur of Gondor cuts off Sauron's finger and the Ring with it, thus defeating Sauron and returning him to his spiritual form. With Sauron's first defeat, the Third Age of Middle-earth begins. The Ring's influence corrupts Isildur, who takes it for himself and is then killed by the Orcs. The Ring is lost in a river for 2,500 years until it is found by Gollum, who possesses it for over four and a half centuries. The Ring abandons Gollum and is later found by a hobbit named Bilbo Baggins, who is unaware of its history.
Walkthrough[]
The level starts you off at the slopes of Mount Doom. You play as Elendil, Isildur, and Elrond. Your first objective is to defeat five orcs with target flags. They may be hard to find in the crowd. After that, you will have to defeat three more target orcs and this time they have shields. Disarm them and defeat them. After defeating all three, Mount Doom erupts and three orcs rise on Morgul platforms. Use Elendil's sword to destroy the platforms and defeat the orcs.
After a cutscene, you'll be fighting Sauron. Use the save statue if you want to save. Wait for Sauron to swing through the crowd. Avoid his mace when he attacks. When his mace gets stuck, use Elindel to break it, knocking off a heart. Repeat two times to defeat Sauron.
You're now in Mount Doom. Elindel's gone but Isildur now has Elindel's broken sword. Save if you must and jump over the platform to the other side of the lava. Jump on the bars on the cliff and shuffle to the right. Jump one more bar and up to the cliff. Isildur can now break morgul blocks, so break them so that you can progress. Jump across two platforms to cross the lava. Be careful of the flames coming out of the wall. After breaking more morgul blocks, jump onto a bar and shuffle to cross the lava. Some orcs will break out of a wall. Defeat them and walk on the slanted plank up higher. Once you're up, use Elrond to jump to a higher platform. Then push the rock into the lava to make a platform. Break the morgul rocks on the right. The ones on Elrond's platform just reveal a Minikit. Jump over the lava spout. Make your way to the right, go northward, jump on a hard-to-see rock, then up a bar, then get up. You will find a doorway. Defeat the orcs guarding it while dodging the falling rocks. More orcs break out of the door. Defeat them and go through the door.
You made it to the platform. Defeat all the orcs until a cutscene happens where Elrond tells Isildur to cast the ring into the fire, which Isildur refuses. Galadriel then narrates the story of the ring.
