Release Date: 1988
"Rampage" is a classic arcade-style video game that was released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1988, originally developed by Bally Midway for arcades in 1986. The game's premise revolves around three mutated monsters: George (a gigantic ape), Lizzie (a massive lizard), and Ralph (a huge werewolf). Players take control of these monsters with the goal of causing havoc across numerous cities in the United States. The gameplay involves demolishing buildings, eating people, and destroying vehicles to accumulate points, all while avoiding attacks from military forces trying to stop the monstrous rampage.
The game stood out during its time for the cooperative multiplayer mode, allowing players to join forces in destruction or even compete to see who could cause more damage. The NES version of "Rampage" embraced the essence of the original arcade game, including its graphics and level design, albeit with some necessary adaptations due to the limitations of the home console at the time. It also featured the ability to recover health by eating certain items and marked an early example of a game with destructible environments. Despite its simplicity by modern standards, "Rampage" has remained a beloved classic, cementing itself as a cultural icon in the video gaming community due to its unique concept and engaging gameplay.
