The Lord of the Rings: Conquest is a 2009 action game developed by Pandemic Studios and published by Electronic Arts. It is derived from The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, and borrows many gameplay mechanics from Pandemic's Star Wars: Battlefront games. The game allows the player to play as both the forces of good and evil.
Pandemic was aided by Weta Digital in developing the game. They provided many of their digital models, including the fell beasts. Pandemic used elements that were cut from the films, and have taken inspiration from J. R. R. Tolkien's original fantasy series, such as a level based loosely around Balin's conquest of Moria, in which Gimli attempts to retake the dwarven city from the orcs. Some inspiration was less direct: the armies of Rohan and Gondor decide not to attack Minas Morgul in the novel, but a level in the game is based on what might possibly have happened if they had. The game uses Howard Shore's score to the films as its soundtrack.
The Lord of the Rings: Conquest is abandonware and no longer sold or supported by its publishers. Files are archived here for these platforms:

I came here because I heard the version hosted here might bypass the DRM. Before I do anything, I wanted to ask:
Can anyone confirm if this download fully skips the DRM check?
And if so, does it include a DRM-free conquest.exe, or should I use it to replace my existing install?
Any help or tips would be really appreciated. I just want to relive this classic!
Thanks in advance
I’m on mac with Bootcamp.
I’ve downloaded from the Metafire link.
Installed everything following instructions, Directx included.
Then, when I’m lauching the game, I’ve got a white screen then a black screen and nothing more.
Does anyone knows a fix or a few things to try ?
Thanks a lot
appreciate the link suggestion but maybe look first before u come off like a prick
Any thoughts on this? I run it under adm. permissions
