The player has a pool of money, a base with cores to protect, and tower emplacements.
The goal is to strategically place towers to defend their base from incoming enemies.
Different kind of enemies require different kinds of towers to be able to destroy them.
The enemies consist of an alien species that is after your base.
These include small enemies and easy to kill enemies, slow and giant bosses, flying enemies, lightning quick enemies that require slowing down first, etc.
Towers consist of gun emplacements, flamethrower towers, anti-air towers, laser towers, and many more.
The enemies are after the power cores and pick these up after walking close to them.
Some enemies can carry several power cores at the same time and should be an priority.
When a power core is dropped, it slowly returns back to the power core, but can be picked up whilst returning by enemies.
The player loses when all cores are successfully stolen by enemies.
Unlike its predecessor, this game features coöperative and competitive multiplayer.
About Sega Genesis
Known as the Mega Drive outside North America, the Sega Genesis (1988/1989) was Sega's most successful console and Sonic the Hedgehog's original home, fueling the "console wars" era against Nintendo's SNES. Genesis cartridge collecting is well-established: common sports and platformer titles are affordable, while sports-license and later-era games with smaller print runs can carry a meaningful premium.

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 Gridrunner 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 GEN release dates back to 1982.
