Game Boy · 1990
About this game
In this installment of the Wizards & Warriors series players take on the role of the knight Kuros, who must rescue the princess from the evil Wizard Malkil.
In various side-scrolling levels, Kuros must dodge obstacles such as arrows and flames, as well as kill different enemies such as bats, spiders, warriors and skeletons.

To damage his enemies, Kuros can use two different attacks: a fast stab attack and a strike that is slower, but has a better range.
Various items that help Kuros on his quest can be picked up throughout the levels: gems increase the player's score and grant extra lives, food replenishes some health, a spell of invincibility makes Kuros temporarily invincible, and keys are used to open treasure chests or doors.
Kuros can also find additional equipment including a "Shield of Protection" that halves the damage he receives, and the "Boots of Jumping" that let him jump higher and fall from high platforms without taking damage.
Levels are divided into several sub-levels, at the last of which a boss fight awaits Kuros.
About Game Boy
The original Game Boy (1989) proved that handheld gaming didn't need cutting-edge graphics to succeed — its monochrome screen and legendary battery life, combined with Tetris as a pack-in, made it a cultural phenomenon. Game Boy cartridges are famously durable, so this remains one of the more accessible retro platforms to collect, though translucent color variants and complete-in-box copies with the original brick-sized manual add real value for condition-focused collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Wizards & Warriors X: Fortress of Fear for Game Boy 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 Wizards & Warriors X: Fortress of Fear 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 GB release dates back to 1990.
