Rampage is a 1986 action video game developed and published by Bally Midway for arcades. Inspired by monster films, players control a trio of monsters: George, Lizzie, and Ralph, humans transformed into creatures due to various experimental mishaps. The goal is to destroy cities and combat military forces while staying alive. The game is set across 128 days in cities throughout North America, with each cycle repeating five times. Gameplay includes destroying buildings, eating humans, and avoiding damage.

Rampage spawned ports to various home consoles and computers, as well as five sequels and a 2018 film adaptation. Warner Bros. owns all rights to the property via their purchase of Midway Games.
