About

Constructive Destruction

Features
Read full description

An arcade racing game with bulldozers, diggers and other construction machines. Heavy machines. Tiny streets. Make a useful mess. Race bulldozers, excavators, forklifts, street sweepers, combine harvesters, and 26 more working machines through a destructible city. Responsive steering and crashes that carry your momentum keep the race moving as the wreckage flies. START RACING FOR FREE Construction Loop includes unlimited Quick Race, Time Trial, Destruction Sprint, and Tutorial play. Earn gameplay coins to unlock all 31 machines and all six paint finishes. Free play includes banner ads on the main menu only. No ads interrupt racing. There is no subscription, app account, or purchasable coins. ONE OPTIONAL FULL GAME UNLOCK A one-time in-app purchase adds Industrial Jam, Harbor Havoc, Championship (all three cups), and Hard difficulty, and removes all ads. These cities, cups, and difficulty require the purchase. Vehicles and paints remain earned through gameplay; the unlock does not give you coins or skip their progression. Family Sharing is supported, and Restore Purchases is available in Settings and on the unlock screen. WORK MACHINES, ARCADE MAYHEM Tracked machines pivot on the spot, rear-steering machines turn differently, and articulated haulers swing wide. Each machine has a special move inspired by its real job: swing an excavator bucket, lay an asphalt speed strip, vacuum debris, or pull a container trailer with a surge of torque. SMASH. CHARGE. BOOST. Cones, benches, hydrants, scaffolding, market stalls, and empty parked cars are fair game. Racing-speed impacts wreck parked cars in one hit and clear them out of your path. Smashing fills your Wreck Meter; spend a full meter on speed and smashing power. FIVE WAYS TO PLAY • Quick Race — choose your course, machine, laps, and difficulty • Time Trial — solo racing against the clock • Destruction Sprint — smashing adds time as you race to the finish • Tutorial — learn the controls on a guided lap • Championship — race for points and standings across three cups (Full Game Unlock required) MADE FOR PHONES AND TABLETS Landscape touch controls include auto-accelerate, an optional Driving Assist that brakes for tight bends and keeps you on the road, a left-handed layout, adjustable sensitivity, and gamepad support. Camera shake, haptics, text size, and high-contrast options are adjustable. Gameplay works offline and progress stays on your device. Loading prices, purchasing, restoring, and menu ads use an internet connection. Ad privacy choices are available in Settings. There is no progress cloud sync; deleting the app deletes local gameplay progress, while the Apple purchase can be restored.
