Granada is a top-down tank-based shooter game developed by Wolf Team, who later became the Namco Tales Studio, responsible for the development of every Tales game. Wolf Team was loyal to Sega Genesis, responsible for the El Viento trilogy, Arcus Odyssey as well as Sol-Feace. The game has you fighting a war in futuristic Africa, you are a mercenary piloting an experimental high-tech tank called the Maneuver Cepter, after learning you had been used by an entity called the "PEID" - Private Enterprise Intelligence Department to tilt the war, you board the Maneuver Cepter once again, this time to end the war and defeat the PEID's plan. Unlike other shoot-'em-ups of its time, the game has you free-roaming through the levels much like a maze, destroying enemy generators, a small radar shows the location of the generators, after each generator is destroyed: a boss appears. The game often dwells into bullet-hell territory with its boss battles, our only complaint is that we wished the tank was a little faster, as well as the gameplay.
