cost me $20 incl shipping, but besides the rarity, it is actually a very good playable game. Good effort for Ocean indeed (Ocean were never known for producing 'quality' software in the UK)

My first thought when I saw that it was by Ocean was, how identical to the Sinclair Spectrum port is it? I'd like to know if they directly ported the Z80 source code, like a few companies did with old Spectrum games. (For example, the first Dragon's Lair game for the GB was a platform collect-em'-up that was a cheap port of an old unrelated game about an amusement park patron collecting coins.)

Nice, I found a loose copy in a Gamestop for $1.25. The American version is even rarer though, and the one I own and the one you have are both European.
