The game is set in a futuristic Africa in 2016. A war has erupted over mining rights for rare metals and has quickly escalated due to the development of an advanced new type of tank called Maneuver Cepters. A mysterious Maneuver Cepter of unknown origin called "Granada" has been destroying heavy mobile weapons from both the north and south factions.

==Gameplay==
−
The player is situated in a large field full of enemies, obstacles, and enemy generators that may be freely moved upon (unlike most conventional shoot-'em-ups). The goal of each level is to destroy each enemy generator (red dots on the HUD in the bottom right corner) and then a boss all before the timer runs out.
+
The game is a multi-directional shooter that plays similarly to the overhead missions of ''[[Thunder Force II]]''. The player is situated on a large field full of enemies, obstacles, and mission targets that may be freely moved upon (unlike most conventional shoot-'em-ups). The goal of each stage is to destroy all of the targets, which vary for each stage, and then a boss before the timer runs out. The player is given a radar in the bottom-right corner of the screen, which displays targets as solid red dots, the boss as a flashing red dot, and the Granada as a flashing white dot.
  
−
{{A}} shoots a normal weapon (which can rapidfire) and {{C}} shoots a missile (which can only shoot one at a time, though there is unlimited missiles, and will knock the player back a bit). Holding {{B}} locks the orientation so moving the D-pad will not also rotate your ship. It is possible to find a miniature ship that will help in its own ways.
+
The player moves the Granada around with the D-pad. It fires its normal weapon with {{A}}, which has rapid-fire. It can also fire missiles with {{C}}. Missiles are slower-firing and therefore require more precision to use effectively, but they are more powerful, allowing them to destroy larger targets in fewer hits, and can penetrate through multiple targets, making them useful for clearing out masses of smaller enemies. Shooting a missile knocks the tank backwards a bit. Weapons are fired in the direction that the tank is facing and have unlimited supply. The tank normally rotates in the direction that it is moving, but the player can lock its orientation by holding {{B}}, which allows for strafing maneuvers. The tank can be rotated in 16 different directions.
 +
 
 +
The Granada has a shield that can sustain multiple hits from enemies, indicated by a bar at the top of the screen. The tank explodes if it sustains too much enemy damage, costing the player a life. The player also loses a life if time runs out or if the Granada falls off the stage. If all lives are lost, the game is over. Otherwise, the Granada is respawned where it was destroyed. The game has four selectable difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, and Mania). The Granada has fewer maximum shield points at higher difficulty levels.
 +
 
 +
===Support Units===
 +
Support units supplement the Granada with additional capabilities. They last for the rest of the stage or until the Granada is destroyed.

Granada (グラナダ) is a 1990 shoot-'em-up by Wolf Team released in the US and Japan for the Sega Mega Drive and in Japan for the X68000.

A European release was planned by Ubisoft[12], but it did not materialise.

The game was re-released for Nintendo Switch in December 2023 as a stand-alone release from Telenet Shooting Collection, keeping the Sega logo at the startup.

Story

The game is set in a futuristic Africa in 2016. A war has erupted over mining rights for rare metals and has quickly escalated due to the development of an advanced new type of tank called Maneuver Cepters. A mysterious Maneuver Cepter of unknown origin called "Granada" has been destroying heavy mobile weapons from both the north and south factions.

Leon Todo, a private mercenary, accepts a task from an enterprise agent that takes him to Japan, where he finds the Granada and uses it in an attempt to stop the conflict once and for all.

Gameplay

The game is a multi-directional shooter that plays similarly to the overhead missions of Thunder Force II. The player is situated on a large field full of enemies, obstacles, and mission targets that may be freely moved upon (unlike most conventional shoot-'em-ups). The goal of each stage is to destroy all of the targets, which vary for each stage, and then a boss before the timer runs out. The player is given a radar in the bottom-right corner of the screen, which displays targets as solid red dots, the boss as a flashing red dot, and the Granada as a flashing white dot.

The player moves the Granada around with the D-pad. It fires its normal weapon with A, which has rapid-fire. It can also fire missiles with C. Missiles are slower-firing and therefore require more precision to use effectively, but they are more powerful, allowing them to destroy larger targets in fewer hits, and can penetrate through multiple targets, making them useful for clearing out masses of smaller enemies. Shooting a missile knocks the tank backwards a bit. Weapons are fired in the direction that the tank is facing and have unlimited supply. The tank normally rotates in the direction that it is moving, but the player can lock its orientation by holding B, which allows for strafing maneuvers. The tank can be rotated in 16 different directions.

The Granada has a shield that can sustain multiple hits from enemies, indicated by a bar at the top of the screen. The tank explodes if it sustains too much enemy damage, costing the player a life. The player also loses a life if time runs out or if the Granada falls off the stage. If all lives are lost, the game is over. Otherwise, the Granada is respawned where it was destroyed. The game has four selectable difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, Hard, and Mania). The Granada has fewer maximum shield points at higher difficulty levels.

Support Units

Support units supplement the Granada with additional capabilities. They last for the rest of the stage or until the Granada is destroyed.

Granada, Support Units.png
 Reflector (リフレター)
The unit follows around the Granada. The Granada's normal weapon reflects off of it at an angle. Hitting it with a missile causes it to spin around shooting bullets in every direction for a duration. Collecting this item multiple times equips more units to follow the Granada.
Granada, Support Units.png
 Epalet (エバレット)
Adds homing missiles to the Granada's standard attack. Collecting this item multiple times adds additional missiles to the attack.
Granada, Support Units.png
 Paul Bunyan (ポールバニアン)
Attaches a plate-shaped shield to the front of the Granada. It is launched forward when the Granada fires a missile with C, which causes it to spray bullets in multiple directions before returning to the Granada.
Granada, Support Units.png
 Chromleck (クロムレック)
The unit follows the Granada and damages enemies that it touches. The unit revolves around the Granada when it fires its normal weapon or seeks and destroys an enemy when the Granada fires a missile with C.
Granada, Support Units.png
 Hidden (ヒドン)
The unit follows the Granada. The unit explodes in a large radius, destroying enemies as well as itself, with C. Collecting this item multiple times equips more units to follow the Granada, which are detonated separately.
