Space Marauder is an scrolling shooter game with two modes of play.
Most levels are side- and vertical-scrolling with pre-designed layouts.
A few levels are different, though: top-down perspective, with a randomized layout.
Either way, the player is armed with a variety of weapons, including different guns (laser, missile, ring) and the powerful cobalt bomb which kills everything on screen.
Space Marauder is the Game Boy Color version of Burai Fighter .
Game play is exactly the same.
Like Burai Fighter it offers the same three difficulties (Eagle, Albatross and Ace), but the game features different level layouts.
It doesn't include the Vs. mode.
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 Space Marauder 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 Space Marauder 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 1999.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Space Marauder, 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.
