What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
The lowest price on record is $14.99, set in June 2024. Its cuts run 50 percent off as a rule. There have been 40 in the 6 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 5 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 6 weeks. It becomes a BANGER at $18.37, a level the record has reached 34 times.
On value it sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Turbo Dismount™ ($9.99, scores 91) beats it on value, while it beats Medieval Engineers ($9.99, scores 2).
80 from critics against 96 percent from players, and the player number comes from people who own the game.
Steam's global achievement data says about 8 percent of players ever finish it. On a 13.4-hour game, that is a lot of paid-for hours most people never see. Of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 27 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2026 to September 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 78 percent of the 6,625 reviews written there were positive, against 96 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it.
13.4 hours to finish it, 33 to exhaust it. The completionist tail is 2.5 times the campaign.
It came out 4 years ago and 2.0K were still playing it at the last check.
It carries Valve's Deck Verified rating and runs 13.4 hours, about as long as a handheld game wants to be.

What players say
Planning the ultimate demolition heist never gets old, especially when you get to carve your own custom escape routes through fully destructible environments. The physics-based sandbox chaos is an absolute blast, though the rigid mission timers can occasionally cramp your creative style. Still, if you've ever wanted to bulldoze a building just to steal a safe, this is your game.
If Leonardo da Vinci made a game this would be it. I've waiting for a quarter of my life to play this masterpiece and the wait for it was worth it.
this game is so fun best sandbox game i ever play i love that it has ez modding to make better game play lots of good mods gives my computer and heart attack very well made

Teardown scores 76/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/1167630/teardownThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Sep 12, price as of Sep 24.
