A top-down football game built around Euro 92, and about as cheap as a Master System cart gets.
Champions of Europe was made by TecMagik to coincide with the UEFA Euro 1992 tournament and carries the official logo and the tournament mascot, Berni the Bunni. It was the only official game of that tournament on the Master System. One or two players take a team from the group stages to the final.
It came out in Europe on 1 June 1992 and in Brazil, via Tec Toy, in 1992.

“Controls take time to get used but are highly versatile. Playable and humorous, cute sprites ‘speaking’ via speech bubbles.”
“Early versions of this game were plagued with bugs, but ignoring these, the actual game is great, with many innovative features and great gameplay.”

It takés ages to reach the druggies' car and if you mess up it takés ages to relocate them again.”
Before you buy
It sits at the very bottom of the European-only price range, so a loose cart is hardly a gamble. The complete copy costs more but is still inexpensive. The manual is the part most often missing.
