Rescue Mission

Rescue Mission is a shooting game.

Using the Light Phaser peripheral, the player is required to shoot waves of enemy soldiers to protect a medic on a rail cart who slowly moves around the level rescuing injured friendly soldiers.

The Sega Master System (1985/1986) was Sega's answer to the NES and, while it lost the console war in North America, became genuinely dominant in markets like Brazil and parts of Europe. That regional split matters for collectors: PAL and Brazilian-market cartridges can differ meaningfully in scarcity and pricing from their North American counterparts for the same title.

Gamevaro tracks Rescue Mission for Sega Master 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 Rescue Mission 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 SMS release dates back to 1988.

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Rescue Mission, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Sega Master 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.
