About Wrecking Crane

Wrecking Crane puts you in the cab of a tower crane on a demolition site at golden hour. Turn the jib, run the trolley in or out, pull the heavy wrecking ball back and let it fly into buildings made of real stacked blocks. Every brick, beam, pane and slab is simulated, so walls topple, towers fold and floors pancake the way they would on a real site. Across 100 levels in 10 worlds you knock buildings below the line, smash glass, work around heavy steel, drop red blocks while sparing blue ones, topple buildings into a canal, set off TNT barrels, fight the wind and hit buildings riding on rail cars. Earn up to three stars by using fewer swings, or demolish an endless city block in Arcade mode.

Play Wrecking Crane

How to play

  1. Drag left and right to turn the crane, and up and down to move the trolley along the jib. On a keyboard, use Left/Right to turn and Up/Down to move the trolley.
  2. The yellow dots show the path of the swing and the red ring shows where the ball will first hit. Moving the trolley further out makes the ball hit higher up a building; pulling it in hits lower and harder.
  3. Press and hold the SWING button (or Space) to pull the ball back. The longer you hold, the bigger the swing. Let go to release it.
  4. Each level gives you a few swings. Most goals ask you to knock a share of the building below the yellow line. Blocks that start above the line count, and they are down once they fall below it or break.
  5. Stars: ★ for reaching the goal, ★★ and ★★★ for doing it in fewer swings. The swing counts for each star are shown at the bottom left.
  6. Materials behave differently: wood is light and flies, glass shatters when hit hard, steel is heavy and never breaks, and TNT barrels explode when struck and set each other off.
  7. Some levels add a canal to topple buildings into, red blocks to drop while keeping the blue ones standing, wind that pushes the ball sideways and buildings riding on moving rail cars.

Arcade mode

Endless city block. Knock down 70% of each building to earn more swings. The run ends when you are out of swings.

You start with 5 swings. Each building you bring down (70% below the line) gives you 2 more swings, or 3 if you flatten it completely, and the next building appears. Every block knocked down scores 10 points, glass and TNT add bonuses, and each cleared building adds a bonus that grows as the buildings get bigger.

100 levels in 10 worlds

Levels unlock one after another. Clear a level to earn up to three stars, and come back later to collect any you missed.

  1. Demolition Day

    World 1 · Levels 1–10

    Brick walls and towers. Learn to aim the crane and knock them below the line.

  2. Timber Yard

    World 2 · Levels 11–20

    Light wooden cabins and crate stacks that fly apart when the ball hits.

  3. Glass Works

    World 3 · Levels 21–30

    Glass panes and blocks shatter when they are hit hard. Every pane counts.

  4. Red & Blue

    World 4 · Levels 31–40

    Precision demolition: knock the red blocks down and leave the blue ones standing.

  5. Steel Works

    World 5 · Levels 41–50

    Heavy, unbreakable steel legs, shields and frames. Swing over or around them.

  6. Canal Side

    World 6 · Levels 51–60

    Buildings on the canal bank. Topple them outward into the water.

  7. Blast Zone

    World 7 · Levels 61–70

    TNT barrels explode when struck and set each other off. Use the blast.

  8. Windy Ridge

    World 8 · Levels 71–80

    Wind pushes the swinging ball sideways. Aim into it.

  9. Rail Yard

    World 9 · Levels 81–90

    Buildings ride on sliding rail cars. Time your swing to meet them.

  10. Skyline Finale

    World 10 · Levels 91–100

    Everything at once: glass, steel, TNT, wind, water and moving cars.

Tips

  • Watch the red ring. If it sits low on the building, the ball hits at full speed near the base; slide the trolley out to hit higher and topple tall towers.
  • A full swing is not always best. On precision levels, a gentler swing knocks the red blocks without sending debris into the blue ones.
  • Hit TNT barrels to start chain reactions. A barrel inside a tower can bring the whole thing down.
  • Wind pushes the ball sideways during its swing. Turn the crane a little into the wind.
  • On rail yards the buildings keep moving. Release a moment early so the building arrives as the ball does.
  • To topple a building into the canal, hit it low on the side facing the crane so it falls away from you.
  • Missed a star? Cleared levels stay unlocked, so come back later and try with fewer swings.

Questions

How many levels are there?

100 levels in 10 worlds of 10. Each level unlocks after you clear the one before it, and each world adds a new material or idea.

How do stars work?

Reach the goal for one star. Do it within the swing count shown for two stars, and within the lower count for three stars. Your best stars are kept for each level.

Is every level possible?

Yes. Every level is checked by a computer bot that plays the game's own physics. It proves the goal and three stars can be reached, and that every building stands still on its own until you hit it.

Is the physics real?

Yes. Every block is its own rigid body with mass and friction, so buildings collapse differently depending on where and how hard you hit them.

How does Arcade mode work?

Arcade is an endless city block. You start with five swings and earn more by bringing each building down. The run ends when you run out of swings.

Can I play with a keyboard?

Yes. Left and Right turn the crane, Up and Down move the trolley, and holding Space pulls the ball back. Let go to swing. Press P or Esc to pause.
