### 5/5 — Extreme Demolition

*2016-11-26, version 1.302*

I really love this game. But I have a new iPhone and a thing pops up and says that this app may slow down my iPhone because the game needs to be updated by the creator. And it does get slow. So, If they don't I can't play the game. If they do I will still play. Just a warning to anyone who plans to get this app.

### 4/5 — Pretty good but......

*2015-10-27, version 1.302*

You need to have more levels or add more stages because I just finished the game and I'm gonna delete it ADD MORE LEVELS  but anyway this game had a lot of potential but you just threw it away just make sure your game is really fleshed out before you release it

### 4/5 — The game that must be played!!!!!

*2015-08-08, version 1.302*

It is a game that that every action and demolition packed player must try, although the graphics needs a little improvement but if you ignore the glitchs and bugs you will enjoy it. It would get 5 stars if the glitchs and bugs would be fixed

### 5/5 — Some things could be added

*2015-06-19, version 1.302*

-fix all the obstacles and junk in the arenas 
-add maybe a couple new cars
-make it to where it's not just lan multiplayer. And maybe add online tournaments 
-fix the issue where last car is right on your back no matter what

### 4/5 — Good but needs more levels

*2015-05-24, version 1.302*

I passed the game already and I can't buy and more levels so when the update comes hopefully there is more levels. The game is fun but little issues

### 4/5 — Fun game.

*2015-05-08, version 1.302*

This game is a lot of fun. My friends and I play this a lot in the multiplayer. The graphics are very good and I like the controls. The physics engine is also well made. A few problems: sometimes when you pause, the NPC cars continue to drive around and blow you up. Also, they are relentless I when you are driving around in circles. They just circle behind when you want to hit them, making it impossible to do anything. Otherwise a good game.

### 4/5 — Great game.

*2015-03-23, version 1.302*

It's a great game. I love the physics and the gameplay. I like how there is other mechanics added to the levels each time you unlock it. One thing I didn't like is the difficulty. Listen, when the game starts, it's easy, and it's the difficulty it should be. But when all of the CPU's are eliminated except for one, the CPU is relentless. It's too difficult to destroy the last bot. But other then that, it's a great game.

### 4/5 — Last Car!!!!!!!

*2015-02-10, version 1.302*

I'm so frustrated that the last car will follow u around relentlessly. At least make it to were u can get him off ur arse. Also would be nice if they would not push u from here to china. Or china from here

### 5/5 — BRST GAME EVER!!!!

*2015-01-31, version 1.302*

This is a great game but in the cannon level you glitch through the cannon and fall into a void then you die/explode but I like it and fix the A.I cause they spin around sometimes and add more levels I rate this 5 STARS ;)

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2015-01-25, version 1.302*

Literally obsessed with this game I can not put down I just thing that the graphics could be better though but overall great game definatly suggest this game!!!!

### 4/5 — Almost there

*2015-01-03, version 1.302*

As others have said, final competitor will tail you relentlessly making it take longer to complete a map. You can tell the AI logic favors 1 vs 1 if you watch when there's multiple vehicles on track. Best of the couple decent demolition games for now.

### 5/5 — Fan of this game!

*2015-01-02, version 1.302*

I love it!😎.It is so fun!I rated it five stars because it was my dream  to drive a car and crash into people! When I got it I thought I would love it and I did!My uncle loved it to!

### 4/5 — Takes my money

*2015-01-01, version 1.302*

So I was about to buy a new map which makes no sence why you have to buy the new map and I push to buy it and it takes all 3,000 of money and then doesn't give me the map...

### 4/5 — Overall good, but...

*2014-10-29, version 1.302*

...there is one glitch that needs to be patched. The car will glitch out in the garage, not allowing you to change colors, and most importantly, CARS. It is very annoying being stuck with one car with the first paint FOREVER, and after going from the garage to the area select, the car stays as the foreground, blocking that section of the screen. This STILL needs fixing. Otherwise, this game would definitely deserve 5-stars. This glitch is just way to important. Love everything else!

### 4/5 — Plz!!!

*2014-10-27, version 1.302*

I love the game!! Very fun. Would give 5 stars if there could be a update on the multiplayer. Me and my friends want to play with each other but it will not let us connect to each others created games. Please fix!!!!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Complete and utter garbage

*2015-03-08, version 1.302*

The idea is terrific. But the game is without a doubt the most poorly programmed game I have ever experienced. 

Where to start: the physics are laughable. You can be going extremely slowly, and you hit a hill, and suddenly you're airborne. 

Most of the maps have litter and obstacles EVERYWHERE and you are constantly hitting them and becoming stuck, forcing you to reverse out. 

Steering sometimes sluggish, other times just doesn't work period. I have had times when the only way to turn was to come to a complete stop, then turn while standing completely still!

Playing two players on a local wireless network sitting right next to each other and the wifi signal - players frequently get "rubberbanded" or just skip a few feet ahead or behind, making any attempt to collide just futile. 

Acceleration, brake, and reverse often just stop working for a few seconds. 

If you barely tap an obstacle your car goes flying into the air and somersaults. 

In conclusion: it's a terrific idea, executed in the most atrocious programming I have ever seen.

### 1/5 — A game that could be good, but it's not.

*2014-09-08, version 1.302*

This game could be an awesome game.  What are its flaws?  For starters there is too much debris in the games.  And even worse than that skill doesn't matter. Especially in multiplayer.  Most of the time good well timed hits either give no money, or the person I hit gets the money.  I like to financially support free apps that are of good quality. , but I will never financially support this app.  The creator of this game took a good idea with decent graphics and decent control and flushed the whole thing down the toilet.

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2014-07-25, version 1.302*

It seems like it could be a cool game but when you get to the last AI car all they do is follow you right on your bumper and there is no way to hit them. It is extremely annoying. I played for a few minutes and I am deleting before I throw my phone at something.

### 3/5 — Great game but needs more

*2015-05-20, version 1.302*

You need to add more vehicles and some plain maps without so many obstacles and you Gould add game modes like team play with the other computer controlled cars and so people can change how many cars they are going against. Then it will be worthy of 5 stars

### 3/5 — Potential wasted

*2014-05-03, version 1.302*

All the makings of a great game somehow lost in translation.  This game is reminiscent of the demolition derby games for ps1, far more than anything yet. 
Than the downfalls..When you are in the top two there is little way to win. The AI will always follow you as close as possible making any attack extremely difficult. If that's not enough, it seems I don't get credit for my hits on a lot of occasions. In fact, I feel as though I'm taking the damage most times and they don't. Even when they are stationary and I ram them full speed I often don't get the pay out of a "successful" hit many times. 
Worst of all, I can not tell you just how many times my controls seem to become unresponsive for a moment. So many times I've had a great chance to take someone out or avoid an attack when suddenly I can't turn or my gas pedal won't work. I'm better off repeatedly tapping the buttons than relying on a solid press. 
This all being said, the graphics are fluid and everything I haven't mentioned above is pretty well spot on with this game. It could be a top game IMO if it were only, shall I say, more user friendly.

### 3/5 — Eh...

*2014-04-27, version 1.302*

First, get rid of the stuff in the middle of the map, it's annoying. And please fix when you are in the top 2 that the AI doesn't constantly follow you, this is what makes it impossible to win. Finally, please make things cheaper or at least give you more money during a race because it takes forever to get them which makes it almost impossible to progress. Overall, I was disappointed with this game, but I guess it is a good time killer. Oh and add more maps and cars please.

### 3/5 — Way too hard

*2014-02-04, version 1.302*

It is impossible, every car goes for YOU first, the jeep never gets off of you. Waaaaay to expensive to upgrade, almost impossible too! Been stuck on first map ever since I got it... Needs a lot more work. Would never pay for this game.

### 4/5 — Needs fixing

*2016-03-04, version 1.302*

I like the car crashing physics but the game doesn't have a story or objective in it so I think you should fix that along with the types of cars and the paint jobs. 😄

### 4/5 — Awesome…but levels?

*2015-12-31, version 1.302*

The game is awesome in all, but just one thing. After you finish the "hard" level it saids you're unlocked hard difficulty and I can't find that level. I think it's a bug. Please fix it, so I can continue playing the game.

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2015-12-28, version 1.302*

Just needs real derby cars! Headers, bumpers, no jeeps. Also if I make a big hit it doesn't give me any points. I think it's well said about being in the top 2 and the other car follows you around. But it was the best derby game I could find out there! Please make different cars with headers and such

### 5/5 — Are you there?

*2022-03-17, version 1.302*

Hi, devs. If you see this, can you please update the game to be compatible with new devices/iOS. I miss this game, quite simple and not obnoxious like nearly all games left. Just perfect the way things were.

### 5/5 — I wish I could download this again :(

*2022-01-12, version 1.302*

This was one of my favorite games I used to play on mobile, it had a different feel than all the other demolition games. This one was pretty much perfect to me. I really hope they make it eligible to download again some day. Maybe even make a new one.. or possibly make it for pc too?

### 5/5 — Needs to be updated for the new IOS update
