Demolition Derby

About

Demolition Derby is a 1976 arcade game where players steer a car to collide with two constantly moving drone vehicles. Each impact destroys a drone and earns a point, but the action doesn’t slow down. As wreckage accumulates on screen, avoiding obstacles while hitting new targets becomes more frantic. The game demands quick reflexes and precise timing to maximize your score before the clock runs out. This high-octane game leans into competitive chaos, with every session offering a new challenge due to the unpredictable drone movements. One player has marked the experience as intense, reflecting the game’s unrelenting pace. Originally launched by Exidy in 1975 as Destruction Derby, this Chicago Coin version added slightly more complexity to the formula while keeping the core demolition mechanics intact.
