Captain Silver adapts the Japanese Treasure Island manga into platform adventure with maritime exploration and pirate fights. The Master System version keeps the marine iconography and humor with balanced difficulty. Pleasant for 8 bit action fans, original in the catalogue.

Captain Silver (Master System) price, value & rarity
An action platformer inspired by a Compile manga around Long John Silver's treasure hunt, an edition gathering the Japan, Europe and Brazil markings. Its desirability rests on that multi-region profile, the Japanese origin of Compile's development and the title's adventurous tone. Collectors seek this variant for its composite zone and the game's place among the auteur platformers of the catalogue's first half.
