About this game

Growl is a one-player action arcade beat 'em up released in 1989. Players choose from four characters—Gen, Burn, Khan, and Jack—and fight evil poachers with hand-to-hand attacks.

Enemies can drop weapons including grenades, rocket launchers, whips, swords, guns, and shotguns. Guns have limited ammunition; once it runs out, the weapon can still be used to pistol-whip opponents.
