Rampart is a one- to two-player game that combines strategy and action as you take the role of a medieval warlord. Build fortifications and position your cannons in order to destroy the enemy's fortress or defend against an invading armada. Once the onslaught ends, quickly rebuild and extend your territory before the next volley strikes. Victory gains you dominion over all you survey. Gameplay is fast and quickly learned. Rampart offers three levels of difficulty, three different two-player game lengths with six different battlefields, and the ability for each player to customize the control pad for their own personal feel. Each round of play is divided into three phases: Cannon Placement Phase, Battle Phase, and the Build and Repair Phase. Use strategy to complete the Cannon Placement, fast reflexes to destroy your opponents in Battle, and puzzle-solving skills to Build and Repair.

Tetris meets shoot-'em-up, Rampart was originally a one or two-player arcade game combining strategy and artillery action. Build your castle from Tetris-style pieces, place your cannons, bombard the enemy, try to repair, do it all over again. Later arcade revisions incorporated 3-player, and the PC conversion does as well, making it a faithful, entertaining classic for multiple players on the same PC.

A truly addictive game that is simple really; build a castle, decide where you want your cannons and then decimate you enemy!

Port of the classic Atari arcade game. As a medieval warlord, you must design and build an empire defended by castles, ships, and artillery. Bombard your opponent's defenses whilst strengthening your own. Once the onslaught ends, quickly rebuild and expand. The console port includes several weapons enhancements not found in the original.
A very addictive game, if you can get over the slightly crude graphics.

Rampart is a superb arcade puzzle game in which up to three players must build up a castle using Tetris shaped pieces to form a castle wall and enclose their keep. Each player must then place a limited number of cannons inside their castle wall before the timer expires. Once the cannons have been placed the battle itself begins. Players must target their cannons onto the enemy's castle (or, in the one-player game, enemy ships and peons) and destroy as much of the enemy army as possible before the time limit expires.
Once the battle is over the players must repair their castles, again using tetris shapes. The players' Keep must be completely encircled with castle wall or the game is over. In the single-player sea attack game, any enemy ships that manage to reach the coast nearest the player will unload peons that will attack the player's castle by land.

A medieval masterpiece of power, strategy and ingenuity! The objective is brutally simple: engage your enemy in an all-out exchange of cannonfire, then assess the damage and rebuild your castle. But the reality of RAMPART is far more complex. The key to victory lies in how quickly you can pick up the pieces and redesign, refortify, and extend your walls before the next battle begins. There's only one way out. Defend... or perish.

In Rampart, the player is in control of a set of castles, which they must defend, by alternately shooting at attacking ships (or other players), and repairing any damage done to them within a time limit. Surrounding this castle is a wall, made up of small blocks, completely surrounding a region of the board. This area is considered the player's territory, and it may contain one or more castles, and any number of cannons. The maintenance of this territory is the primary focus of the game.
