Sunrise? Theirs is only an R8 though. Oh, and Avalon Hill has to be on that list, too.

 

I wanted to mention Starpath. Their stuff used to be R4 and up, but I think the first few have been bumped to R3. Still, though, Rabbit Transit is where they start to get rare. 1 to 7 are easy enough to get, 8 to 12 are not.

 

Then there is K-Tel, as long as you count just the K-tel carts and not the ones produced under the Xonox name.

 

If you count prototypes, consider Fox. If not, then don't.

Bomb and CommaVid come to mind.

VentureVision. Rescue Terra I is an R9 and a great game.

Video Gem,Funvision,Playaround(PAL only)Mystique (PAL only)

[Atari Rescue Group]

Sparrow

[homerwannabee]

Answer Software deserves to be up there as well. Although they only made two games, those games are both extremely rare.

Good point Hom... I mean Mr. Galaxian.

Is this 32-in-1 really rare? I have had it for years now. I got it in an Ebay lot and have never seen it before.

Commavid! I'd kill for a copy of Cakewalk.

So in the gameplay do you draw little lines over the screen?

Like this?

It''s a puzzle game, with two game variations. You don't have to solve the first to figure out the second, but it helps.
