What the community says about The Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle-earth
I rate it the same as the original 7WD. There are several changes, and all of them can be understood, and you may like this one more than the original, or the other way around. I could not say that one version is really "better" than the other. Honestly, in this case, although it seems to be more thematic, the theme may not be really implemented. It is somehow strange that if you are playing the dark, you can benefit from cards from the light side... it is just weird. So the game is mechanically great, it is absolute fun and tense, and really enjoyable.

Versión muy mejorada del 7 wonder duel sin contar sus expansiones. La temática está muy bien implementada y el arte es una gozada.
El mejor juego para dos, hasta ahora... La posibilidad de ganar de tres formas distintas aporta tension y toma de decisiones divertidas, si bien hay un punto de azar en las cartas que se van revelando. Recomiendo para partidas rapidas de a dos y si te gusta el universo de TLOR, es un obligado en la ludoteca
Is one of the best games for 2 people, does not take too time, once you understand the rules is very easy and fast to play. The components are super nice and the mechanic is great. One of my favorite games for 2 people.
Soy fan de los 7 wonder y siempre pensé que nada podía mejorar el 7 wonder duel... Craso error... Este juego es perfecto... Imprescindible....
Prefiero 7 Wonders Duel, me resulta más gratificante que al final de la partida se valoren las diferentes cosas que he ido desarrollando y que no se resuma todo (en caso de no haber ganado por desatar el final en otra cosa específica) a la presencia en el mapa de tropas que tengas. Me parece precioso y super bien tematizado, pero no me gusta la sensación final de juego.
The element of area control, the components of the "Quest for the ring" track and the way of earning green bonuses, make it a really different experience from its succesor. Awesome game.
