Blunt the knives, bend the forks; Smash the bottles and burn the corks; Chip the glasses and crack the plates; That’s what Bilbo Baggins hates!

An Unexpected Party is a fast, fun, action-based tabletop game for 2-4 players, set in the opening scenes of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey – when the thirteen Dwarves arrive unannounced at Bag End, much to Bilbo’s dismay! Mischief ensues as the dwarves cheerfully jest with Bilbo under the watchful eye of Gandalf.

Step into the Dwarves shoes and earn points by performing lines of the song, “The Things Bilbo Hates.” As you move around Bag End you will sing loudly, gather items and generally make a mess of the place. While Bilbo might be curious about the antics of his uninvited guests at first, be careful not to push the poor hobbit too far or you will be sitting in the Dining Hall with no dinner!

The game ends either when all 15 lines of the song are completed, or with the momentous arrival of Thorin. The player with the most points – who did the best job arousing Bilbo’s curiosity and shaking up his sheltered life – will win!

An Unexpected Party is perfect for families and features fun artwork by Weta Workshop senior concept artist, Daniel Falconer. Spend an hour inside Bag End and host your own Unexpected Party!

About the Fandom

The Hobbit is a fantasy novel by J.R.R. Tolkien, first published in 1937. The story follows the journey of Bilbo Baggins, a seemingly ordinary hobbit, who is drawn into an epic quest with a group of dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield. Tasked with reclaiming their lost homeland and treasure from the fearsome dragon Smaug, Bilbo's adventure takes him through treacherous lands, encounters with magical beings, and personal growth. The novel is renowned for its engaging narrative, vibrant world-building, and the introduction of key elements that would later be expanded in Tolkien’s broader Middle-earth legendarium.

The story was adapted into a film trilogy by Peter Jackson, released between 2012 and 2014. The trilogy includes The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012), which begins Bilbo's adventure and introduces the key characters and setting. This is followed by The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013), which continues the journey through dangerous lands and culminates in the confrontation with the dragon Smaug. The series concludes with The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014), which depicts the climactic battle and the aftermath of the quest, connecting the story to the broader events of Middle-earth leading into The Lord of the Rings.
