Gain Ground is an action-strategy game that was first released in the Arcade in 1988.
+ Attainable playable characters (with unique abilities) keep things fresh, and the game really comes alive in two-player mode.+ With two ways to beat stages (defeating all foes, or each soldier reaching the exit), you're always in with a fighting chance.
+ Enemy placements are displayed prior to stages commencing, which is a great tactical advantage for planning your attack.
+ Stage design avoids repetition by throwing varying layouts and challenges your way, and the timer ratchets up the pressure.
+ Fourth round is exclusive to the 16-bit home version and alters the art style to more a modern setting to switch things up.
+ Bosses are a fun diversion from the typical gameplay and force you to think about your next move in a more guarded fashion.
- Could have used a story element or cut-scenes to give context to the rounds, and there's no option to save your progress.
