There’s no denying it: Instruments Of Destruction looks similar toBesiege, another physics-based building game where you construct medieval siege engines. But this looks like it has an even explodier sandbox. The way these buildings shatter is glorious.

Instruments Of Destruction is due to arriveon Steam Early Accessin late 2021. Radiangames say that the early access period will last for “at least a year”, with “multiple years a possibility”. They plan to use that time to add more levels, objectives, and vehicle parts, while editors for levels, structures, and islands are also “on the wishlist for features”.
