I only had to watch the video and a few images of Instruments of Destruction to come to two conclusions. The first is that we face a very intelligent proposition as it appeals to basic instincts, to the desires that mostly remain hidden behind the conventions that allow us to live in society and develop. And of course the second conclusion is that I like it so much that it won’t be long before I buy it and start enjoying its design.

Available on Steam, its title He doesn’t leave much doubt about it.and it doesn’t play distractingly either. Instruments of Destruction puts in our hands different types of vehicles that match their reason for being: destruction, more precisely the destruction of buildings and structures, which, even if they look quite solid in their construction, as if they react like butter to a hot knife, we decide to use the equipment of each of the mentioned vehicles .

Games focused on destruction and mayhem are nothing new, almost everyone remembers the title in which the main premise (or at least the funniest) was also the most devastating. In my case, when I saw it, for example, it reminded me a lot of Destruction Derby, one of the most memorable games of the first generation of PlayStation (although it also came to other platforms). I remember the first time you played it “like crazy” and charged at the rest of the racers in that wild arena. Over time, however, you began to develop certain techniques that covered the destruction with a patina of style, even elegance.

A very interesting aspect of Instruments of Destruction is that it uses a realistic physics model, or at least a reasonably realistic one, although of course this translates into somewhat higher resource consumption than one would initially expect. The recommended configuration therefore requires a minimum from us 16 gigabytes of RAM and a graphics card with at least 4 gigabytes of VRAMin addition to a processor with at least 6 cores at 2.5 GHz or higher.

The degree has more than 50 missions, each with a specific vehicle to wreak havoc on, as well as an epilogue consisting of 25 more missions. However, for those who think the plot doesn’t match what they’re looking for, It also has a sandbox mode and a vehicle editorwhich we can retreat our desire to destroy everything our creativity, even if it is through “destructiveness”.
