Blast Corps
Frantic action-puzzler satisfies that primal need to break stuff in a way yet to be matched even by the most advanced, Havok-enhanced demolition simulators. A runaway tractor with a leaking nuclear payload is on an unstoppable collision course. Armed with an array of unusual, often difficult to control demolition vehicles, you must level the numerous settlements in its path before it collides into any standing buildings and causes untold miles of devastation. Stages are littered with complex terrain and various vehicles and equipment, making each a uniquely designed challenge. The critical path to ground zero is short, but dozens of unlockable side levels offer races, destruction stages, stunt tracks, and many other timed challenges. For 100% completion the main stages can be replayed, time limit free, to rescue survivors, activate radiation dispersal units, destroy any remaining buildings (why? who cares?), and locate hidden vehicles and other secrets. Stages become quite difficult, and the ultimate goal of collecting platinum medals is nearly impossible.
