Synopsis

Growl, released in Japan as Runark, is a 1991 beat 'em up video game developed and published by Taito for arcades. It was released in Japan and North America in February 1991. Set in the early 20th century, the player controls a forest ranger who must protect the local wildlife from a group of evil poachers who are driving the animals to extinction. A home version was released for the Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) in November 1991. A censored version was also included in the arcade game compilation Taito Legends 2 for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Microsoft Windows. Hamster Corporation released the game as part of their Arcade Archives series for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 in July 2023.
