The player controls Ripley through a number of platform levels.
She must not only defend herself against hordes of aliens and find the exit, but also save a number of prisoners, all within a tight time limit of only minutes per level.
Weapons to use against the aliens include a pulse rifle, flame thrower, grenade launcher as well as hand grenades.
Ammo for each is limited and must be collected in the levels.
The rifle is prone to overheating, so should only be fired in short bursts.
Next to health packs, Ripley can also find a radar.
The radar indicates both moving aliens as well as the locations of prisoners.
After every two levels, a guardian level follows, in which an especially tough alien must be defeated to continue.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks ALIEN³ for Nintendo Entertainment System 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 ALIEN³ 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 NES release dates back to 1993.

Rarity & condition
No market sales have been tracked yet for ALIEN³ — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
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.
