T.R.A.G. (Tactical Rescue Assault Group), also known as T.R.A.G. Mission of Mercy is an adventure game for the PlayStation developed by SunSoft and published on March 31, 1999. It was also released earlier in Europe and Japan as Hard Edge on December 3, 1998. As a member of T.R.A.G. (a police squad) the player must infiltrate the Togusa building, which has been taken over by terrorists, and attempt to take it back, as well as rescuing Prof. Kevin Howard, an important scientist who is a hostage of the terrorists. The gameplay is somewhat similar to that of Resident Evil, with 3D characters moving across pre-rendered backgrounds most of the time. There are 4 playable characters, each with a unique ability and also a different fighting style:
- Alex, is a member of T.R.A.G. who is able to use night vision goggles and fights using his pistol.
- Michelle is Alex's comrade, who fights with a knife.
- Rachel Howard is Professor Howard's daughter, who fights with tonfa batons. Her small size allows her to get in tight places.
- Burns Byford is a local detective who was searching for one of the terrorists, Gasshu. He fights with his fists. His strength allows him to move heavy objects that the other characters cannot.
Each character can be switched with another one almost anytime; in fact, if the characters are split into 2 teams, the player is able to explore 2 areas separately as well. It's notable that there aren't new weapons to be picked during the main game; instead those are obtained only as unlockables after the game's completion.
