Inside the struggle to create a cozy Lord of the Rings game
The article discusses the challenges faced by Weta Workshop's Game Studio in creating a cozy Lord of the Rings game.

The article highlights the struggle to create a cozy and immersive Lord of the Rings game experience, which is a departure from the studio's previous focus on visual effects and prop-making for major Hollywood productions.
