You can find a Mindwalker loose disk on eBay, or get it from amiga.org users if you ask. I'd expect to pay $5-$10 tops for it. Also, like Castellen says, it's part of Amiga forever, along with the classic game "Ports of Call."
When Red was liqidating his Amiga Forever 6.0 stock last month, I bought a couple copies so I can play these classics on my Windows box.

Yeah, I collect ST too. But I'm not sure what games on the ST should be considered "MUST HAVE" for a retro game collector. So far, I have NIB Starglider, since this is Jez San's masterpiece, and the ST version is the original version. I also have NIB "MIDI Maze", as I think it's impact on gaming history is underrated, but is starting to become more apparent.
I think I need to add "Captain Blood" and "Time Bandit". I'd also like to get Tanglewood again, not to collect, but to play!

Yeah, I think Amiga Forever did a great job at getting MW. That plus the ohter games already included are worth the price of the whole package.
The reason I paid so much for a boxed copy was for my collection. The Amiga is still modern enough that most games can be found, but a good condition boxed copy of Mindwalker has become astoundingly rare lately.
My understanding based on what other collecotrs have said is that MW had a very limited run as a boxed game, and after that it was included as a disk with stripped down docs bundled inside many Amiga 1000 computers.
Anyway, I have finally completed my hunt for the oldest original Amiga 1000 items.
If anybody wants to part with unusual A1000 perfirerals, such as Zorro II expansions, kickstart eliminators, etc, - shoot me a PM, and I'll trade any Amiga 500, 2000, or 1200 gear I have for 'em!
