Good stuffAug 17, 2001 If you've ever played this game before, then you know what to expect. So to you folks, it's just what you think it's going to be like! For those who have never played Rampart it goes a little like this: Build city walls around castles to stay alive and gain more points. Then place cannons. Then prepare for a frenzied round of battle! After the round, you do it all over again! I'm not sure when or how you win, but you just do. Even though it sounds simple, it's quite entertaining. I cannot play for more than a half hour or so at a time because it just gets too difficult. When it says GAME OVER, you just feel like you need a break. That, however, doesn't stop me from playing again later. Overall, the simple tetris like strategy for adults and blow em up to bits action for the kids make this a game everyone can enjoy.

If you liked the arcade game...Mar 17, 2001 I haven't seen any port to Gameboy that so matched the arcade game as well as this one. I rented the game, expecting the worst, and am so pleased I'm buying a copy. Even the shouting voice telling you to "Surround Castle to Stay Alive!" is right where it 'sposed to be. Sure the graphics are small, and that direction pad is nothing like the trackball of the original, but the gameplay is just right. If you're like me, and still think the best arcade games are gone -- shucks, I dated my wife by dropping quarters together in arcade machines -- but you somehow have two or three gameboys sitting around when the little rugrats are asleep, I think you'll be happy with this game.

Warning: DO NOT BUY THIS GAMEDec 30, 2000 Please do yourself a favor and exit this page right now. This game is the worst game on gameboy. There is no point to this game beyond the simple arcade bit. ...

So addictive!Mar 22, 2000 This game is a blast! You get some cannons, you get a castle and then the boats attack. After a timed period of battle where you are trying to sink ships while they are trying to knock down your castle walls, you get a chance to rebuild, but you have to do it fast. This is one great strategy game. It's not good for little kids, but adults won't be able to put it down!

Straight port of Classic Arcade GameMar 05, 2000 NOTHING extra, just the game that used to cost a quarter. The Graphics were made for a big screen and don't translate well to such a small screen. If you played the arcade version this will disappoint you.
