Excerpt from Genesis Game Guide by The Scribe

NAME:             Rampart

TYPE:             Strategy
LANGUAGE:         English

PREMISE:          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
                  defences whilst strengthening your own.  Once the
                  onslaught ends, quickly rebuld and expand.  Includes
                  several weapons enhancements not found in the original.
                  (from an Electronic Arts press release)

IMPRESSIONS:      Plan well, fight fiercely, and above all don't lose your
                  head.  Why?  Because you will - if you lose the game.
                  (Player's Choice)

This is a great game mixing elements of tetris and elements from gun games. When you first start out, you pick a territory to put cannons in. Then you go into battle with those cannons and shoot the boats coming to shore with a target cursor. Then, the fun part comes, building more territories with the random blocks you get, but in order to get more land, you have to have all corners filled in and holes. The more land you have, the more cannons you get, and more shots you kill the enemies with! It's a great 2 player game as well, especially the guiotine scene, hehe. I give it a 9.

King Samurai John Declares this game as a good buy! I suck at it.. not good at these kinds of games.. but it dose make a good impression.. I like games that are set in this time era.... It was a fun game, with decent graphics and sound!
