MicroMouse Mastertronic

Something seems odd with the above game. The game is by Mastertronic, and the comments say there is another game with the same title by MC Lothlorien Ltd.

The Mastertronic one is:

and the MC Lothlorien one is:

However the Mastertronic one has MC Lothlorien Ltd listed under the authors

    Are they 2 completely different games?

    Maybe the 1989 Mastertronic release is crediting Lothlorian for the character? Or maybe we have the first example of a remake of an older game?

    Or maybe it was supposed to be a sequel but they bodged the title somehow? Not really likely though, but who knows maybe the original didn't do that well, so they didn't bother to put a 2 in there?

    The loading screen credits Lothlorien on the Mastertronic release, so I guess they wrote it.
    I never heard of that version before, though.

    I think Boozy is probaby right (I don't say that often!) and mastertronic are crediting Lothlorien for the title.
