I bought this game for $2.49 during a Steam sale. Had I paid the full price of $9.99, I would be very disappointed, because this game is not long at all. It feels like a Flash puzzle game, but with less replayability. Aside from the length of the game, which will take you around six hours to do -everything- (achievements and all), the fact it is a puzzle game that is also physics based makes the game feel unpolished. From the Demolition, Inc. ad: "Demolition, Inc. is 100% physics technology: nothing is predetermined, and nothing is pre-animated. Only you make a determination what you do and what you see! Every time you play will have a unique experience." That's nice, but the problem is, being a puzzle game where you have limited resources and time in which to destroy a city, you will find certain methods work best on certain buildings... but since it is physics based and nothing is predetermined, something may work great one time, mediocre the next time, and not at all another time - I found myself having to restart levels over and over, making sure I tackled the most random elements first, only able to proceed to the challenging parts if the cards had fallen my way. Rampage mode might as well not be there. Your resources in rampage mode are still limited, and the cities you get to destroy are cities you've already destroyed in more inventive ways through the campaign. If I could drop gas tankers in every level, things might be different... This game also bears a leftist anti-establishment green movement message, and I honestly can't tell if it was supposed to be a joke. Demolition, Inc. is a charming puzzle game that is short on content and plays like an unfinished product that preaches to you at the same time. It's amusing enough if you can find it for $2.49.
