A fun mindless destruction physics sandbox for gamers who like leaderboards and challenging themselves. Make sure both CPU and GPU exceed recommended spec to run well.

Review

I recommend this game on sale for anyone with full recommended specs who really loved the crash mode from Burnout, or liked it and has friends to play with/against. It was made by some of the same developers as Burnout Revenge. The game is easy to pick up and difficult to master most levels, which didn't start feeling samey until 9 hours in.

Here's what you need to know about the gameplay:
+They made object destruction and environments as pretty as possible. Physics are top notch here.
+Although not endless, the game as it progress does include more and more ways to get crashbreakers, extend play, warp, earn cash, etc.-Although they really try to mix up the items in different environments, they still had a samey feeling to them after 9 hours.
+Seamless switching between keyboard & controller - Truly full controller support.
?Ricochet angles tend to be what I expect after hitting a wall, but there's been a few times where ricochets were janky and one time where the ball clipped through a wall.
-The game has little to no music, as the sound is all about the ricochets, breaking stuff, collisions and explosions.
?Leaderboards definitely extends the single player game for me, but it is only for global, friends, or local boards. No regional boards.
-The game is CPU and GPU intensive, so use only the recommended specs as a guide unless you are good with playing on low quality settings or lower than 1080p resolution. I had near the minimum CPU (i5 3470) but close to recommended GPU (GTX680), and FPS sometimes dips regardless of texture quality during big chaos to 20-30 even at 1366x768 res recommended by NVIDIA.  I upgraded to a GTX 1060 and was able to get 1080p at 60fps most of the time, with only rare dips to 40 fps.
-No online players available for matchmaking.
