Atari Jaguar prices, all games & how to spot a fake

A competent, anonymous tile puzzle — with J.S. Bach and Mozart in the credits.

A tile-matching puzzler starring a creature called Fritz on the planet Phit — the kind of game that existed by the dozen in 1995. Its one genuinely odd distinction: the soundtrack uses public-domain classical arrangements, and the composer credits literally list Bach and Mozart. The only Jaguar game with an eighteenth-century composer in its metadata.

How it was made

The Jaguar conversion's studio is not separately credited in the sources checked. Gorilla Systems Corporation is credited for the original version, but on this era's ports the Jaguar conversion was frequently done by a different team — see the per-platform credits below before attributing it. Credited: programmed by Conrad Barski, Shawn Potts, Brian J. Gelger, Jeffrey Fullerton; art by Daniel Ritchie, James Ford, Mike Taylor; music by J.S. Bach, Michael Beaumont, Wolfgang A. Mozart.

How the Atari Jaguar version differs

A Jaguar original, not a conversion. Developer Gorilla Systems went on to start a Jaguar CD horror game, Dante's Inferno, scheduled for June 1996 and never released.

These are the other versions’ scores, not this one’s. Ports of this era were frequently built by different studios, so they do not transfer.

Worth knowing

An EGM writer helped test it. The credited testers include Michael Price of Electronic Gaming Monthly, alongside Atari's own Dan McNamee. A surviving early design document also shows features that were changed or dropped before release, power-ups among them.

Buying a Jaguar cartridge

Cartridges are the durable half of this library — the risk is provenance, not decay. The platform has an active post-commercial scene, so the question is usually which era a cartridge is from rather than whether it still works.

Ask for a photo of the label edge and the cartridge back. Reproductions are usually printed on adhesive photo stock and sit proud of the label recess.
Donor shells are the common trick: sanding marks on the back, or adhesive ghosting where an older label was lifted, are the strongest signals.
Cartridges are region-free on this platform, so a cheaper PAL copy plays on a North American console — a price difference is not evidence of a fake.
