The other characters simply aren't like this, as broadly sketched on the surface, as openly cartoonish, but with such haunted depths. Gollum's always been a fascinating splinter of chaos in the Tolkien books. Availability: Out today on PC, PS4 and PS5 and Xbox.Publisher: Daedelic Entertainment, Nacon.This is not a dig - it's exactly how Gollum should look. Gollum, hidden in the dark, swimming in sewage, rattling through a blazing blood-coloured mine, looks like Linus van Pelt on the single worst day of his life. The large wet eyes shift constantly, looking for an opportunity, any opportunity. And that head, on top of that short, sinewy body, it's huge and filled with craftiness and sly wit. His movements seem shaped by his own poor experience of the world, forever flinching from expected blows. His stance is a nervous, weight-shifting crouch.
The greatest achievement in The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is Gollum himself. A strong sense of character is let down by poor controls, fiddly implementation, and bugs.
