Lotrdle (Lord Of The Rings DLE)
Unmask the day's Middle-earth character from race, realm, first book, weapon and role.
Every day: A new Lord of the Rings character every day, guessed with unlimited tries from six clues: race, gender, realm, first book, weapon and role. New puzzle: Daily.

Lotrdle is a fan-made Android game with a new Lord of the Rings character every day. A blurred face hides the answer; each guess reveals six clues, race, gender, realm, first book, weapon and role, with arrows that point to an earlier or later book of the trilogy, and you have as many tries as you need. A random practice mode is there between days.
About Lotrdle (Lord Of The Rings DLE)
Lotrdle puts a face behind a blur and asks who it is. You type any Middle-earth character, and the game answers with six clues comparing your guess with the hidden one: race, gender, realm, the book of the trilogy in which they first appear, weapon and role. A clue turns green when it is right and red when it is wrong, and for the first book an arrow shows whether the answer appears earlier or later.
Guesses are unlimited, so the puzzle is about getting there in as few tries as you can, and a sealed hint opens after three guesses. The pool holds 42 characters from the Shire to Mordor. Besides today's character there is a Practice mode with random characters, night and parchment themes, and atmospheric music that can be switched off.
Lotrdle is a fan-made, non-commercial app by HitsuGames for Android.
