"Demolish & Build 3: Excavator Playground" is is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Demolish & Build 3". Demolish & Build 3 is a poor cousin to Construction Simulator, and even the previous games in the Demolish & Build series, basically it's a badly done job simulator full of bugs, lacking polish, and apparently already abandoned by the developer. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Demolish & Build 3, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Demolish & Build 3: Excavator Playground" too. The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out a whopping $20 USD on buying Demolish & Build 3, and I don't recommend you do that either. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. As an advertise…

I am a grown adult, but the second you put me in the cockpit of a giant excavator on a tiny test track Demolish Games. My brain turns into a 4-year-old shouting "BIG TRUCK SMASH WALL!" The demolition physics are incredibly satisfying. The tracks actually bend over obstacles Steam Community. My inner child is healed.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
