The mechanic seems contrived and there isn’t anything players can do in game to help themselves. When this card is flipped over, you find out about the riddle mechanic and to be honest, this may be my least favorite mechanic in the game. Quest card 2: Riddles in the Dark – 9 progress This mirrors exactly what happens in the book, Bilbo gets separated from the party of Dwarfs and is stuck all alone matching wits with Gollum in a game of riddles for his life.
One, they start the game as normal with quest card 1A, and two, create a riddle area which contains it’s own quest card, Gollum, Bilbo’s Magic Ring, and Bilbo Baggins. To setup the game, the players do two things. What to look out for: Failing Riddles results in a dead Bilbo which you will want to avoid, a lot of surge and extra cards being revealed, enemies can swarm like crazy.There are some other side-quests here that can help you as well, but remember to first beat stage 1 so that you can advance the quest once you’ve answered your riddles. Boosting willpower with Rally the West will make it easier to advance stage 3 quickly, and using Keep Watch will make the many enemies in the game hit for less. Can I run side-quests?: Since the players cannot beat stage 1 until stage 2 is also cleared, there is a window there to clear some side-quests.What is different about this scenario?: Riddle mechanic, a lot of cards revealed per player, 2 quest cards in play at the same time, cannot advance to stage 3 until both quests have been cleared.
Play if: You are continuing your Hobbit saga playthrough, you enjoy the riddle mechanic and would like to get stuck answering them with Gollum, you want a quest where you are rewarded for building the deck specifically for the scenario.
Encounter Sets: Dungeons Deep and Caverns Dim, Misty Mountain Goblins.Found in: The Hobbit: Over Hill and Under Hill saga box, quest 3.The game also contains all these, and a riddle mechanic to go with it. This scene has it all mystery, suspense, an eerie setting, the creepy Gollum, and the hero of “The Hobbit,” Bilbo Baggins. Tolkien are asked to consider what scene is the most iconic in his legendarium, Riddles in the Dark easily ranks among them.
