Crystal Mines II

Great treasure still lies deep in the abandoned Crystal Mines.

But over the years, underground demons have made them deadly.

Atari's Lynx (1989) was the first handheld console with a color backlit screen, technically ahead of the Game Boy in several respects, but it launched at a higher price with worse battery life and lost the handheld war commercially. Lower overall sales mean smaller print runs across its library, making complete Lynx games a moderately scarce niche within retro handheld collecting.

Gamevaro tracks Crystal Mines II for Atari Lynx 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 Crystal Mines II 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 LYNX release dates back to 1992.

Market insights

Crystal Mines II 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.
