About this game
The once quiet town of Grove Town now has a crime problem with four dangerous criminals running around the town committing crimes.
This is a job for yourself as the local policeman but you have a problem, all the vehicles have been hidden by the criminals and all that is left is a Space Hopper to bounce around town and catch them all within a time limit.

The game is viewed from the side as you move either left or right along the streets with the screen scrolling as you move.
There are various street openings shown by a map of the street above the playing area.
You are also able to see any criminals on the same street.
At the bottom of the screen is a location of a crime and you can also see your location and a clock ticking down.
You move about the streets in search of the criminals and if you find one then you bounce on top of him.
Three of the four criminals are armed which are a club, tacks and a gun.
Get hit by the gun and the tacks and you lose one of three lives.
The club will just stun you and lose you valuable time.
About Commodore 64
Released in 1982, the Commodore 64 is the best-selling home computer model of all time, with an enormous software library spanning games, productivity tools, and everything in between. C64 game collecting centers on cassette tapes and floppy disks in their original packaging — physical media that's inherently fragile, so complete, working copies from the era are increasingly prized by retro computing collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Hopper Copper for Commodore 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Hopper Copper to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This C64 release dates back to 1988.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Hopper Copper, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Commodore 64 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
