Night Raid

Humanity's fight, however, was not yet over. 87 years later, a computer in the desert that was once Asia began a program -- a program called "Vector", left by humans just before their extinction, created to restore life to the world.

Vector must invade the computer Batinbo, and complete this final mission to revive humanity.

Night Raid is a conversion of the 2001 vertical arcade shoot-em-up from Takumi , and has a similar feel to their earlier game Mars Matrix .

Like in Mars Matrix , destroyed enemies release pickups, but rather than powering up your weapons they now affect your score multiplier.

The multiplier is always slowly counting back to zero, but picking up the Score Items released by enemies will increase it.

If a Score Item falls out the bottom of the screen, the multiplier is reduced, and can in fact go into negative, at which point the player will actually lose points for destroying enemies.

The score can even go negative, and this is actually a viable method of play as the game will also track the lowest scores in addition to the highest ones.

You have a standard shot (upgradable through pickups), bombs (which can also be picked up), and an attack called the "hagu launcher" which makes your ship crash into enemy ships to destroy them, and must be recharged after use.

The game has six stages, and includes the original arcade mode as well as a score attack mode.

Night Raid for PlayStation is currently worth €262.05 loose, €134.50 complete in box, and €206.37 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Night Raid has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Night Raid, loose is €262.05 and CIB is €134.50 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.
