Rampage Puzzle Attack is a puzzle game for Game Boy Advance, developed by Finnish development house Ninai Games and published by Midway Games.
The game is a clone of the puzzle game Drop Mania and based on the Rampage characters. At the beginning of the game, the three characters from the original game, George, Lizzie and Ralph, are available, but more characters who appeared in other games of the series can be unlocked through the Rescue mode. The characters appear on screen during the gameplay, climbing the side of the play arena or being caged at the bottom. The game uses password saves to track player progress.
It was the first console game to be developed in Finland.[1]
Gameplay-wise, the game is similar to Ninai's earlier games in the Drop Mania series and Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo.
The basic idea is that the player drops two colored blocks at a time to the playfield. The blocks then merge into contiguous areas. When the player drops a flashing "detoblock" of matching color to touch the area, the entire area is removed and scored. This can lead to chains and combos, and to higher scores.
The game includes a single- and two-player modes. The following modes are available in single-player:
Two-player modes include Rescue mode, Score mode (competition for higher score) and Attack mode.
The game received "average" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.
