No, it's not the author after a bad workout (chess), these are the first words of the story accompanying the reissue of the entire "trilogy of middle-earth" — Colossal Adventure, Adventure Quest and Dungeon Adventure. Is there anyone who does not know these sacred text quests? Well, in 1986 they found a new life — got graphics, an advanced parser and a new name (because all references to the earth, it was decided to get rid of).

Was it worth such efforts? If you are not familiar with the genre of interactive fiction, all three classic adventures in one package is a good occasion to correct this omission. But even if you've already explored the cave of the Giants or the Great Underground Empire, it will be difficult to resist stylish illustrations, it's not only to imagine the same Hall of Mists, but also to see — very tempting!
Despite the small quibbles, even belogolov, as I say, this is a great trilogy, a vast adventure not only under the ground (such as the Zork trilogy), but also on the surface. Forget about the plot — just dive into this fantastic world and return with the treasure (Oh, and incidentally defeat the evil represented by demon Algaliarept). Fans of thoughtful adventure should definitely add Jewels of Darkness in your list of completed games.
