A lone warrior must now journey underground to destroy the heart of the enemy base, in order to save Earth and the human race.
Fire Rock is an action platformer for the Famicom Disk System.
In each of the six vertically scrolling stages, you have to defeat four bosses and find four key items to unlock the exit, while exploring a maze of doors and caverns.
The barbarian-like protagonist is only armed with throwing torches, which can be upgraded to the eponymous Fire Rock .
All walls are climbable, to help in the vertical traversal of the stages.
One of the more unique mechanics is that collecting meat items increases your jump height, and higher jumps are sometimes required to reach items or progress to new locations in a stage.
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 Fire Rock 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 Fire Rock 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 1988.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Fire Rock, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Entertainment System 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.
