Market depth

What it's actually worth

The three-tier spread, verified comparable sales, and where this title sits inside its cohort. Live snapshot lives above in Pulse; this is the time-and-context layer.

Three-tier spread · log scale

The same game at three prices — Loose, CIB, and Sealed on one ruler. The scale is logarithmic: each gridline step is 10×, so the distance between bars shows the size of the jump between tiers.

Why this title

Why collectors care

The cultural context, the production lineage, the place this artifact holds in its console's history.

scape It is a homebrew Atari 2600 game developed by Alan W. Smith and released in 2011. The game was later included in the Atari Flashback series of plug-and-play consoles, starting with the Atari Flashback 5 in 2014, and most recently in the Atari Flashback X Deluxe in 2019. In Escape It, two players must move their squares through a procedurally-generated maze, the layout of which completely regenerates around once per second. The first player to successfully navigate from the bottom-left corner of the screen to the exit at the top-right corner is the winner.
