Rampart
The OG tower defenseGenre: puzzle - blocks
Publisher: Tengen
Year: 1991
System: Genesis
Gameplay Score: 2
Gameplay Notes:
Almost an RTS game. The building phase is Tetris-like and the fighting phase is an awkward lightgun shooter. Neither mode is particularly fun or interesting but the mashup makes it better than the sum of its parts. Fun for a few rounds, but entirely forgettable.
Level Design Score: 2
Level Design Notes:
A never ending string of the same level. The only difference seems to be the number and movement of enemies.
Theme Score: 3
Theme Notes:
I can dig the tower defense motif. And the presentation is nice enough.
Art Style Score: 1
Art Style Notes:
2nd gen graphics. Didn't look much different on the NES.
Audio Score: 3
Audio Notes:
Sparse and simple. The drums fit the military theme.
Overall Score: 41
