Gain Ground combines action and real time strategy in a way few arcade games did, with a huge set of playable characters and levels that require both reflexes and planning. It most resembles Gauntlet, one of its key inspirations, but each level is a single screen and requires you to figure out the best combination of warriors and tactics to defeat all the enemies and/or get all your warriors to the exit. The strategy aspect is not deep, it’s almost more of a puzzle game, but it does require more thinking as the levels progress. Our version reimagines the original wide cabinet in a more standard cabinet format, but retains all of the art and character information. The MAME version includes two screen sizes and light and dark versions.
