The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

How do you get past the live tree in the forbidden forest (the one which causes all of the characters to fall asleep, and then attacks you)? I simply have no clue. I know that in the book Tom Bombadil helps, but in the game he is nowhere to be seen!

My memory is fuzzy, but Tom does appear in this one, I think you had to beat it just with Frodo tough.

How long do you have to wait? Do you just keep beating the tree? I normally get killed by it after a few minutes as there is nowhere to stand where the tree can't get you.

There are more than 10 guides here, one of them is bound to answer your question.
