** Malkil was originally supposed to have three forms in the final battle of Visions of Power; Kuros would have to fight him as a thief, then as a wizard, then as a knight. One walkthrough of the game (back when they were published in books) had a screenshot of the captive king telling you this (in the finished game he gives you some useless advice and then leaves).

* ExecutiveMeddling: The infamous {{Contemptible Cover}} from the second game is a pretty infamous example that the Pickford brothers consider a classic case of "the lack of imagination of Americans". The third game's cover suffered from this as well, with Ste Pickford's original cover of a KnightInShiningArmor being thrown out for something similar to ''Ironsword'''s cover.
