Powerslave

In this first-person shooter, you're an armed forces specialist sent to investigate strange happenings at the ancient Egyptian city of Karnak.

Soon you learn that alien invaders with a penchant for mummifying humans alive have taken over the place.

The Sega Saturn (1994/1995) struggled commercially against the PlayStation despite strong 2D capabilities and a library beloved by shoot-'em-up and RPG fans. Its relatively low sales translated directly into low print runs for many games, making the Saturn one of the more expensive retro platforms to collect completely — several titles now sell for hundreds of euros in good condition.

Gamevaro tracks Powerslave for Sega Saturn 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 Powerslave 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 SAT release dates back to 1996.

Market insights

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