The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game – The Watcher in the Water
Elrond tasks a band of heroes with investigating increased Orc activity that threatened Arwen's escort, sending them to the gates of Moria and into the surrounding swamps. Players build decks and take on scenarios from the Dwarrowdelf cycle, attempting to gain entry through the Doors of Durin and then explore Moria’s tunnels. Gameplay emphasizes questing and combat, with challenges from swamp hazards and a recurring enemy that attacks with multiple tentacles, forcing players to manage threat, defend allies, and coordinate attacks. A core set and the Khazad-dûm expansion are required to play this scenario.
