What is Rampart?

Rampart blends classic puzzle building with artillery action. Players assemble their fortress from Tetris‑style blocks, position cannons, and bombard opponents before repairing damage for the next round. The original arcade version offers single‑player and two‑player modes, with later revisions adding three‑player gameplay for even more chaotic fun.
