Como é construído este ranking
- Os jogos são ordenados pela nota agregada da crítica em 100 importada do IGDB e do Metacritic, nunca pelas notas próprias do Tier.
- Um jogo só entra no ranking a partir de 30 avaliações externas, para que uma única crítica entusiasta nunca ultrapasse um clássico consagrado.
- Cada jogo é classificado num único género, o que melhor o define, para que o mesmo título nunca lidere dois rankings de géneros diferentes.
- As notas da comunidade, de F a S, aparecem ao lado de cada jogo e só são afirmadas como facto acima de 5 avaliações no Tier.
- Período de lançamento abrangido: 1997.
- 8 jogos aparecem nesta página, com 3,348 avaliações no total.
- Os rankings são recalculados de hora a hora; este foi reconstruído a 29 setembro 2026.

Grandia
Grandia is a role-playing video game developed by Game Arts and published by Entertainment Software Publishing for the Sega Saturn console as the first game in their Grandia series. Initially released in Japan in 1997, the game was later ported to the PlayStation in 1999, with an English version of the game appearing on the platform in North America in the following September by Sony Computer Entertainment America, and later in Europe in March 2000 by Ubisoft. The game was produced by much of the same staff who worked on the company's previous role-playing endeavor, the Lunar series, including producer Yoichi Miyagi and music composer Noriyuki Iwadare. Since its release, Grandia has become notable for its combat mechanics, which have been carried over to future games within the franchise, and has spawned two spin-off titles – Grandia: Digital Museum and Grandia: Parallel Trippers – both released exclusively in Japan. In celebration of the announcement of renewing development on Grandia Online, which acts as a prequel to Grandia, the game was re-released on Sony's PlayStation Network platform in Japan as a downloadable title in April 2009 and in North America on February 25, 2010. It was re-released in Europe on November 10, 2010.
