The medieval construction kit even manages to recreate the realm of the elves beautifully. But the builder had to work hard for it!
Hobbits, wizards and GlobalESportNews Readers, take note: we have some news about Lord of the Rings for you. And it doesn’t come from an official game or movie based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendary world. How come?
Tiny Glade makes it possible! The city-building game offers you a great deal of freedom to build your own castle or medieval settlement and decorate it to your heart’s content. : One of our players has taken the concept to its limits and recreated the elven refuge of Rivendell. :
Not 1:1 the original, but wonderfully authentic
Admittedly, when you compare the replica of the YouTube channel
If you look for differences, you will quickly find them. But that doesn’t change the impressive result.
Even the Tiny Glade development studio has taken notice of the Lord of the Rings reference. They are speechless
in view of the result.
As already mentioned, a lot of work went into this. The video above shows you the construction of the imitation of Rivendell in time lapse. All in all, the ambitious project cost the builders Alan Ward and a whopping 20 to 30 hours of work
The Middle-earth fan is already teasing a next construction project and once again we are likely to be dealing with a structure from the Tolkien epic: Isengard, the fortress of the wizard Saruman!
Hmm… what might my next build be? Coming soon. TinyGlade pic.twitter.com/nsbBGcuBdc

We can look forward to many more pretty buildings being constructed in Tiny Glade in the future. Although the city-building game, which was released on September 23, 2024, is not a hit in terms of player numbers, according to SteamDB, it still has a respectable number of players for a small indie title.
The peak since release is over 10,000 players. The 24-hour average is also an impressive 9,600 active Steam users. In our test linked above, it was enough for a whopping 84 points. All in all, the development team can look back on a successful launch.
