About the game
You run a demolition business that takes increasingly questionable jobs. Before a heist, you inspect the site and prepare a route between the things you need to steal. You can knock holes through walls, shift vehicles and lay planks to save time. Taking the first target often starts an alarm, so preparation gives way to a hurried escape.
Up to twelve players can tackle the base campaign together online. Your group uses the host’s unlocked missions, and campaign progress stays with that host. You can help clear routes and collect targets, or leave the jobs behind for Sandbox mode. There you get unlimited resources to experiment with destruction and spawn objects. The campaign rewards planning, while the sandbox leaves room to make a mess together.
