Sophisitcated Games is the publisher of the Lord of the Rings and Beowulf Boardgames
(As well as a LOT of others.) In their own words:
"The company was founded by Robert Hyde and Ken Howard in 1998 as a vehicle to publish their Sophie's World Boardgame. Following the success of this game, Sophisticated Games secured the rights to the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit, resulting in a programme that has established the company at the forefront of quality games publishing. We aim to develop games that are mostly (but not exclusively) based on well known literary brands.
Sophisticated Games is based in Cambridge, a stone's throw from the famous Cambridge 'Backs' (the meadows and gardens that adjoin the river flowing behind some of the largest colleges)."
