One of those games that gives you less the more time you sink into it. The core gameplay loop is solid enough, but by Day 5, you have a feel for the game's controls, and around Day 30, you've taken on about everything the game has to offer. There are 128 Days. Running through in free play, it took me 3 hours, an impossibly long time for an arcade game. Multiplayer probably helps extend that playtime a good deal, but even with three-player, I can't imagine this game has enough content to warrant its long, long runtime. I say this as someone who has a lot of nostalgia for the weirdly mellow vibe you get after a couple dozen singleplayer levels of quietly leveling skyscrapers.

It's a solid enough play if all you want is to run out a couple credits, but don't go for completion. The reward on the final stage isn't worth it.
