Demolish & Build Classic – Review

There’s something mildly satisfying about destruction, maybe I should see a therapist, but being able to virtually rip down walls and buildings is exactly what I need in my life, then like a wrecking ball from the sky, Demolish and Build Classic appears, promising to give me the freedom to knock down wooden huts and brick buildings with various machines in an open world sandbox.

If this sounds a little familiar, you may have also played Demolish and Build back in 2020, created by the same team, it was a continuation of numerous PC titles, and allowed us to… well, knock down wooden huts and brick buildings.
