I think the most expensive games I had were GAC @ £22 and Lord of the Rings @ £15!!! Pretty sure I had GAC as a birthday present and saved up for LOTR.

The Hobbit was 14.95 in 1982, albeit with a book. That's £50 in today's money.

Valhalla, released in 1983, was £14.95 (and you didn’t even get a book, but you got a big box I suppose) and H.U.R.G. was £14.95 in 1984.

I had a copy of HURG off my mate expecting to make the next Manic Miner, but, rather unsurprisingly I drew a character and made it move and that was it.
