The games in the series originally had various references to Tolkien's body of work and was therefore known as the Middle-Earth trilogy. When it was re-released by Rainbird, all Tolkien references were dropped and the trilogy retitled Jewels of Darkness.
On the Amstrad PCW, Apple II, and the 16bit platforms, the game was only released as part of this trilogy. The Jewels of Darkness version also had illustrations added, the original versions were text-only.

Probably my favourite early Level 9 game. The setting is appropriately moody, and there's a lot of exploring and treasure hunting to do.
