An enigma for centuries, JINKS is a lush, resource-rich world, and could be the key to the desperate need for human expansion in space.
It is apparently capable of supporting life, yet it is curiously uninhabited--or is it?
A routine research mission goes haywire when scouting your probe across the planet's surface leads you and your crew into a deadly game of cat and mouse.
Can you escape from these fiendishly clever traps before your probe and its occupants are miniaturized or annihilated?
About Atari 7800
The Atari 7800 (1986) was designed as a technical successor to the 2600 with backward compatibility for that console's cartridge library, but it launched years after being developed and struggled against the NES's dominance. Its brief commercial window means a relatively small original-game library, making complete 7800-exclusive titles a niche but approachable part of classic Atari collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Jinks for Atari 7800 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Jinks to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This A7800 release dates back to 1987.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Jinks has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
