A retro city smash 'em up with satisfying destruction physics. Play as a Giant Monster unleashing terror upon mankind in this modern arcade experience with the action turned up to eleven.
The game's diverse mechanics allow for immensely satisfying destruction. Players can punch, kick, and slam buildings, watching them realistically collapse and crumble due to the physics-based engine. Kicking a car into a skyscraper, toppling it into neighboring structures, and sending terrified civilians flying through the air creates an explosive chain reaction. Beyond the core attacks, each playable monster boasts a unique "ultimate" ability that can be charged and unleashed - such as a earth-shaking roar or energy blast. Further, players can interact creatively with the environment, grabbing humans to throw into helicopter blades or eating them to regain health. Reviewers consistently praise this physics-driven mayhem as the game's highlight, describing the destruction as "satisfying," "explosive," and "insanely fun."
While an open-ended sandbox, the story mode levels present varied objectives to keep gameplay fresh. One level may task players with kicking a certain number of people into helicopter blades, while another requires carefully destroying blue skyscrapers without damaging the red ones. These constraints introduce new mechanics and challenges, in contrast to the more repetitive nature of classic "Rampage" games. An "Endless Mode" also allows for free-form destruction, with additional modifiers and settings unlocked through progression.
Reviewers particularly emphasize the chaotic, hilarious nature of the game's 4-player local co-op. Working together (or against each other) to achieve destruction on an even grander scale adds immensely to the replayability and entertainment value.
