Wrecking balls and big bangs: every job a brand-new building
From garden sheds to tower blocks, knock them down with a crawler crane and a wrecking ball, then, with a licence, explosives.
Every job is a different building, made up fresh: sheds and garages first, then bungalows, cottages, shops and terraces, warehouses and chapels, factory chimneys and water towers, and finally office blocks and tower blocks.
Tap the building where you want to hit it and the crawler crane swings its boom over and lowers the ball to that height (it always keeps the boom clear of the building, so on the tall ones you hit the near side). Press SWING!. Knock out what holds something up and it sags, tips over or pancakes, and the big collapses play out in slow motion.
From the third tier you get a blasting licence: stick charges on the walls and FIRE!. Chimneys have to be felled into the orange patch, and the rubble needs to stay inside the hoarding and off the neighbours' cars (car alarms!). Then the clean-up crew rolls in: the bulldozer shovels the rubble in to a heap in the middle of the plot (never out towards the neighbours), the excavator loads it into the trucks, and Wanda Wallop pays out by the stars. Then it is straight on to the next job.
