It’s a race against time as both the Americans and Soviets search for the missing submarine.
In a series of missions, the player controls a submarine armed with limited torpedoes, sea bombs, SSMs, and SAMs.
Objectives vary from mission to mission, from reaching the end destination, to escorting and protecting a ship.
In some parts of a mission, the game will momentarily switch to periscope mode, with the aim of shooting all naval and airborne enemies on sight.
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 The Hunt for Red October 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 The Hunt for Red October 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.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Hunt for Red October, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Commodore Amiga titles.
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.
