About this game

Even though Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine were able to destroy Umbrella Corporation's undead monsters in the original Resident Evil , Umbrella's experiments with the T-virus continued unhindered.

Claire Redfield, the younger sister of Chris, and Leon Kennedy, a rookie cop on his first day on the job, arrive in the sleepy midwestern town of Raccoon City only to find the city in flaming ruins due to the inhabitants having been transformed into mindless flesh-eating freaks.

Although Claire and Leon team up, they are soon separated and trapped inside the city by a car crash.

Seeking refuge within the Raccoon City police station, each character must find a way to escape from the nightmare while solving the mystery of what happened to Raccoon City.

Besides the zombie population (which is much more diverse than the original, including teenage girl zombies, maniac cop zombies, and even melting naked zombies), Claire and Leon will also have to deal with a variety of freakish mutants including giant poisonous spiders, walking venus flytraps, and speedy wall-crawling Lickers.

Each character will also be pursued by one seemingly unstoppable foe: a horrific and constantly evolving man-monster known as the "G-Type" (Leon's Scenario), or a taciturn but inhumanly powerful Umbrella agent who is nonetheless saddled with the rather quaint name of Mr.

X (Claire's Scenario).

Like the previous game in the series, Resident Evil 2 is a 3D action-adventure using three-dimensional polygon characters over two-dimensional pre-rendered backgrounds, with the action viewed through a variety of cinematic fixed camera angles in each room.

Just like the original Resident Evil , players can choose to play as one of two possible characters.

Each character goes through the same initial scenario, but with differences in the type of weaponry they find and the people they meet along the way.

Leon will team up with a mysterious woman calling herself Ada Wong, while Claire will find herself charged with

About Game Boy Color

The Game Boy Color (1998) added a color screen to the original Game Boy formula while remaining backwards compatible with the entire existing cartridge library. Its colorful, semi-transparent cartridge shells make it a visually distinct platform for shelf collectors, and several late-cycle exclusives — released just before the Game Boy Advance took over — are notably harder to find complete today.

Gamevaro tracks Resident Evil for Game Boy Color 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 Resident Evil 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 GBC release dates back to 2012.

Rarity & condition

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Resident Evil, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Game Boy Color 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.
