Sword of Hope, The (Game Boy) price, value & rarity
Kemco's first text-driven RPG on Game Boy, The Sword of Hope stayed obscure in Europe. The 1991 German release coincides with the console's earliest days in German-speaking markets, shipped in English with no localisation, which kept print runs thin. Boxed copies from this German PAL branch surface rarely, so the complete value climbs through scarcity at launch rather than the title's reputation.
