The Mystery of the Crystal Portal is a hidden object that replaces the traditional list of objects names with a different gameplay mechanic.
The player has to click on certain objects in the scenery that open a circle around it with photographs of items that must be found and dragged to it.
After picking all the required stuff, some of these container objects disappear to reveal a key item underneath them.
Some of the objects have to be collected in one screen to be used in another place (for example, finding matches outside the house to light a fireplace inside).
At the end of each stage/location there's a unique logic puzzle game to be solved, involving some of the objects that the player picked up.
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 Portal (1986) 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 Portal (1986) 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 1986.
