A few little framerate drops aside, the look meshes well with Bilbo's adventure. The graphics engine isn't stunning, but uses bold colors and chunky designs to model its own version of Middle-Earth. The visual style will be familiar to anyone who's seen the old animated film characters have huge eyes and bigger eyebrows, and the story is explained through succinct but hardly complex cutscenes. The novel is written towards a younger audience, and the work of Inevitable Studios has preserved that tone. The Hobbit couldn't be more different from the current crop of Lord Of The Rings titles. The story of Bilbo Baggins' journey from his hobbit-hole to the Lonely Mountain is faithfully told, though there's not much new for the experienced gamer. Culinary Quest! Meter Maid Quest! Well, actually this time it's Hobbit Quest, as Sierra returns to their adventure game roots with the original Middle-Earth tale. With series like Roberta Williams' King's Quest, Sierra could do no wrong it seemed like they could take any story, throw 'Quest' in the title and have a hit. Once upon a time, there was a game publisher who was king of adventure games.
