Rampart

  • By: Atari
  • Released: 1990
  • Display: Horizontal (upright)
  • Input: 3Player Trackball, or 2Player Joystick
    • Read how I converted an Amiga Mouse to act like a Trackball
    • Read how to build a Trackball to Joystick circuit for arcade machines (for playing games like Cabal, Rampart, Centipede, and Arkanoid)
  • Pinout: JAMMA-ish (very close, but buttons are wrong)
  • CPU: 68000
  • Players: 3 [trackball], or 2 [joystick] (simultaneous / competitive)
  • Identifying Marks: EPROM's marked 136082-XXXX. With PCB held so that JAMMA connector is toward you, RAMPART is written in the top-left of the PCB.
  • This game is one of the most adictive games I've played. Build your castle walls using tetris-like blocks, place cannons inside, then blow your enemies away. The challenge is in doing as much damage as possible to your enemys' walls, then re-building your own castle walls TO COMPLETION before the timer expires.
