FS: Alienbusters - A Rare Atari 800/65/130 3D Game

[Renoise]

While this is my only Atari game I got from my parents as a kid so its bound with nostalgia for me, I was told its quite a rare one and as I have no means to use it, would do better to part with it.

This 3D-action game was released in the Czech Republic in 1991 with quite a limited number of copies. The game is in English though and is meant for Atari 800XE/XL, 65XE and 130XE. It comes on a standard 60-minute cassette.

The gameplay is similar to Battlezone, pushing the little Atari hard with the 3D graphics. The player controls a tank whose task is to liberate the Solar System.

The game is in mint condition as it was stored safely in a dry, sunless place for almost 30 years. I asked an admin of an old computer board and was told the value should be about 200USD. I checked Ebay and while the game of course is not there (as it was not released in many copies), similarly rare games have a similar price. It is really for a collector as I have no means to test if it still works. Still have my Atari, but no idea how to load it. Cant see why it should not work, but cassettes have never been too reliable after all. Would anyone be interested?

As I cant find any way to delete the topic: I decided not to sell the game after all, but keep it instead.
