''The Fall of Gondolin'' is a ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' map based on ''Franchise/TheLordOfTheRings'', set during one of the stories in ''Literature/TheSilmarillion''. The protagonist is Elcarien, an elf from the elven capital of Gondolin, returning from a scouting mission to learn the plans of Dark Lord Morgoth. However, when they return, they find that the real danger comes from within...

!!This map contains examples of:

%%* BigBad: [[spoiler:Maeglin.]]
%%* BigGood: Tuor and King Turgon both count.
%%* DugTooDeep: The mine. Only fitting, considering that ''LOTR'' is the Trope Namer.
* FantasticRacism: Maeglin greatly disapproves of Idril marrying a human.
%%* FetchQuest: Several in the early parts of the map.
%%* FinalBoss: [[spoiler:The Balrog.]]
%%* LoveMakesYouEvil: It certainly made [[spoiler:Maeglin]] evil.
%%* MinecartMadness: Inside the mine.
%%* MooksButNoBosses: You could technically call the [[spoiler:Balrog]] a boss, but [[ZeroEffortBoss that's stretching it a little]].
%%* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler:Tuor killing Maeglin.]]
%%* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Well, Turgon at least ''tried'' to do something.
* SceneryPorn: There are some truly amazing vistas in this map.
* ShownTheirWork: The map is very well researched, and loaded with references that someone not familiar with Middle-Earth lore would miss. Given that the map was made by the people responsible for the ''Minecraft'' Middle-Earth project, you'd expect they'd know their stuff.
%%* StationaryBoss: [[spoiler:The Balrog.]]
* UndergroundLevel: The caves at the beginning, as well as the mine.
* TheWarSequence: [[spoiler:The city comes under siege, requiring you to fend of vast armies of monsters.]]
* ZergRush: During [[spoiler:the siege, Gondolin]] is absolutely overflowing with monster spawnees.
