I want to say the name of this game was castles...but I am pretty certain I am wrong. Anyway, it was a simple game in the 80's where ou had to defend your castle from siege by repairing the walls and destroying ships in the water (I think)

Jog any memories?.

I'm afraid I have no idea, although you may have some luck if you try asking at www.whatwasthatgame.com as well. ^^; It's quite a useful resource for questions like that.

You remember if it was for some spesific computer platform, or console or was it arcade?

Some vague memories are stirring...

[EDIT] I was thinking about Rampart, which itai195 suggested above. Here's a screenshot.

It was available for SNES and Amiga, atleast.

Also Lynx and I think there was a Gameboy Color version, though I remember it getting bad reviews for some reason.

Rampart! I am 90% sure that was it. I remember they turned into a arcade game. I think I originally played it on the C64 (Showing my age)

Thanks
