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
The American edition of Captain Silver, the treasure-hunt action platformer developed by Compile, distinct by its zone from the multi-region pressing. The North American market received this title in a more limited distribution, which now makes complete copies scarce in the US. Its desirability rests on that specific regional marking and the value of an auteur platformer sought by collectors of the console's American library.
