I wanna live in a hobbit hole
This review is for the PlayStation 5 version

Now this is a cozy game I wanna live. Decorate your hobbit hole, go fishing, cook meals, forage for ingredients, tend your garden, and meet the hobbits of Bywater. This game is so damn cozy and feel-good. Even if you're not a LOTR/Hobbit fan, there is still plenty to like about this game for those that like cozy games.

For said LOTR/Hobbits fans, this is a nice little tie-in, with plenty of details to make our hearts happy. I would have expected nothing less from Weta Workshop. Who better to have made this game than the same creatives who spent so many years bringing Middle Earth to life for the big screen?

At the end of the day, is this anything ground-breaking? No. But the art is lovely, the music puts you right into the world of Middle Earth, the story and characters are charming, and you get to just spend a little time in this cozy corner of a fantasy world. That's a winner in my book.

Very curious to see the review.

LotR chill is a staple playlist on youtube. I'd love to have it translated into gameplay as well.
