The game's story revolves around completing various demolition missions, which players find to be straightforward but often repetitive, with a total playtime of around 5-9 hours. While some missions are engaging, particularly those involving explosives, others can feel tedious, especially those requiring rubble transport. Overall, the missions offer decent replay value, but many players express a desire for more content and diversity in future installments.
- “Unlocking missions through the campaign mode allows you to play them over again in whatever order you choose, so you can get several more hours out of this depending on how you complete the missions on the second go-round.”
- “I think my favorite mission was the clock tower; if you pack the explosives just right, most of the structure goes skyward and then it rains bricks for a while afterward.”
- “There is a variety of missions with different structures and different tool sets and objectives.”
- “The only complaint is that there's a bit too little content making the game repetitive after a while and collecting rubble using some of the vehicles to deliver them to shredding in some missions can be quite annoying and really make you turn away from the game - it's also in part due to these missions why I never finished the game fully, either on Steam or on my old copy.”
- “This game is easy to get into and fun to play but it only took me 6 hours of play to do all the areas and extra missions, so not a very long-lasting game.”
- “Full of minor bugs, a few glitches and only about 5-7 hours worth of missions before you're done.”

grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat tedious, particularly in the early stages and during scrap collection, which can become monotonous as the maps expand. While the destruction physics add enjoyment, the initial grind and occasional confusion over broken debris can detract from the overall experience. Despite these issues, many reviewers express a desire for a sequel that could enhance gameplay and expand on the concept.
- “The game is short and is a bit grindy in the beginning, but the destruction physics make up for it.”
- “My only real faults thus far are that it can be hard to tell when the game has decided pieces of debris are broken, causing the player to waste time drilling pieces that don't need it, and that the scrap collection, while a fun diversion at first, becomes very tedious as the maps get bigger (the scrap is not mandatory, however).”
- “Cons: slightly boring at first and the airport missions can be tedious.”
