New computer game captures look of demolition equipment, but not the action.
You’ve spent that 12 hours in the office planning your next contract. Or perhaps you have been on site all day, surrounded by the noise and dust that is the backdrop to demolition works the world over. You just want to relax, kick back…chill.
So why not reach for the ol’ joystick and play at what you do for a living from the comfort of your own armchair?
Demolition Company from Giants Software has certainly captured the realism of the demolition equipment. You can control everything from a hand-held breaker through high reach excavators and even a crane and wrecking ball.
Sadly, judging by the video of the game (below) that’s about where the realism ends. Based upon this footage, no demolition contract in the world would last more than an afternoon as even a gentle nudge with a hand-held breaker sends the concrete tumbling in huge blocks. That said, I guess a game that showed demolition in real-time would lack a certain appeal.
