This page consists of every single, well pretty close, Hobbit related game there is. I would like to thank Fredrik Ekman for supplying links to where I could download the games below. All the games are free unless otherwise noted. If you see a game you want to download or play click the link located in the name category. I found an emulator for ZD Spectrum so all the games that run on it will be be reviewed shortly after I finish getting this page up. Enjoy! |
