Blockout [Cardboard Box]
Sega Genesis · 1991
About this game
BlockOut II is a freeware, open-source remake of BlockOut (a Tetris variant puzzler from 1989), with slight improvements to the graphics and sounds and the option to upload the score to an online table.
The gameplay is still the same, where the objective is to move and arrange 3D pieces falling inside a pit seen from above, to create complete layers at the bottom and make them disappear.

The pieces can be rotated on all axis to fit in the nooks and crannies available.
If the layers accumulate and fill all the space to the top, the game is over.
As in the original, the size of the well and the shape of the pieces can be configured in the options menu.
About Sega Genesis
Known as the Mega Drive outside North America, the Sega Genesis (1988/1989) was Sega's most successful console and Sonic the Hedgehog's original home, fueling the "console wars" era against Nintendo's SNES. Genesis cartridge collecting is well-established: common sports and platformer titles are affordable, while sports-license and later-era games with smaller print runs can carry a meaningful premium.
Gamevaro tracks Blockout [Cardboard Box] for Sega Genesis 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 Blockout [Cardboard Box] 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 GEN release dates back to 1991.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Blockout [Cardboard Box] has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning enough copies circulate to establish a reliable market price.
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.
