On Reddit, a user known as phasix shared a picture of an incredible tower they had created based on theLord of the Rings. Specifically, this build was a detailed recreation of the Tower of Orthanc, a famous structure found in Isengard. During the War of the Ring, the Tower of Orthanc was the home of thepowerful wizard Saruman the White. Unsurprisingly, the mighty wizard controlled an equally stunning fortress.
Fortunately, the recreation of the famous tower inMinecraftby phasix does not disappoint. In the image, the structure can be seen extended far above the nearby trees, evidencing the impressive scale of theMinecraftbuild. When making the tower, the Reddit user elected to use predominantly brown-colored blocks for the design. In addition, they included a number of details to make the design look more reminiscent of the source material. For example, the top of the Tower of Orthanc featured the same protruding points described by Tolkien and seen in theLord of the Ringsmovies.
Since posting the image of the creation to theMinecraftsubreddit, a number of gamers have taken notice and complimented the creator on their work. For example, one user said thisTower of Orthancbuild satisfied both their fandoms:MinecraftandLord of the Rings.
