Commodore Amiga · 1990
About this game
Hard Nova is a sci-fi role-playing game with space exploration, spaceship customization and combat, and trading elements, somewhat similar in concept to Sentinel Worlds I: Future Magic.
There is no character creation in the game: in the beginning the player selects between the female mercenary Nova and the male mercenary Stark.

They have slightly different attributes and may gain access to different dialogue lines as the game advances.
Most other crew members have to be recruited from within the game world.
Three of them can be taken to locations on various planets, where they may interact with other characters and participate in combat, where only the leader is controlled manually.
On-foot combat is done in real time, with delays caused by weapon properties and the characters' proficiencies.
Guns play a prominent role in battles.
About Commodore Amiga
The Commodore Amiga (1985) was ahead of its time technically — multitasking, custom graphics and sound chips — and built a passionate following in Europe in particular, where it rivaled and often outsold contemporary consoles. Amiga collecting today is a niche but dedicated hobby: original boxed software on floppy disk is comparatively scarce since floppies degrade, making well-preserved complete copies genuinely valuable to the right collector.
Gamevaro tracks Hard Nova for Commodore Amiga 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 Hard Nova 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 AMIGA release dates back to 1990.

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.
