THERE AND BACK AGAIN

  • The Ring hides you for ten seconds. Then the Eye opens.

Arrows / WASD move · Z or Space jump (hold for height) · X or Shift run, throw, Ring · Enter start · P pause · M mute

How to play

  • Travel left or right to revisit missed blocks, coins and power-ups. Cleared enemies stay defeated. During the Balrog chase, keep moving!
  • Hold B (X or Shift on keyboard) to run. Running jumps go higher and further.
  • Tap A (Z or Space) to jump; hold for height. Your next jump can be queued just before landing.
  • Stomp orcs from above. Chain stomps without landing for 200, 400, 800 and up to an extra life.
  • Lembas makes Frodo big. Big Frodo breaks stone bricks with his head and survives one hit.
  • The Ring hides you from enemies for ten seconds, but the Eye opens and its gaze descends. Press B to take it off early and bank the seconds. On Nazgul levels, getting caught brings a fell beast.
  • Earn extra lives from hidden pickups, or collect a hundred gold coins.
  • Reach the green-and-gold banner, light the beacon, or beat the boss before the Eye hits zero. Grab higher on the banner pole for more points.
