I saw an auction on eBay for cart only go for about $40, i was planning to bid but kinda forgot about it....i never really heard about this one.
I checked dp rarity but can't seem to get clear info on this game it says Non us release R0 developer Human.
This cart looks dark grey instead of the normal asian light grey carts (check pics below) so that makes me wonder were it was released and so on.
I googled it and came up with the same info as dp's guide namely that it was developed by Human in 1991 but this game was released just before the SNES came out and has great graphics for an 8-bit game.
It seems released in Japan but translated into English also and released somewere in Europe or US?
Any one can tell me more about this game?
Is this a repro or something else?

well, that cart does look like a bootleg to me to be honest

1) no Nintendo SoQ
2) no Product Code
3) no Publisher Logo
4) no PAL-A or PAL-B sign (if it's PAL)
5) Japanese text on a western shaped cart

It's a Famicom game, and there's a translation out for the rom. There was no official US release.

I wonder if someone took the translation and burned it to cart...

Someone over on GameTZ started a thread about this cart. The general consensus was that it was a bootleg. It's a good-looking one, though.
