Destruction Derby is a 1995 vehicular combat game developed by Reflections Interactive and published by Psygnosis. Based on the sport of demolition derby driving, the game tasks the player with racing and destroying cars to score points. The developers kept the tracks small in order to force cars into close proximity, so that more wrecks could occur. Versions of Destruction Derby were released for the PlayStation, MS-DOS, the Sega Saturn and the Nintendo 64, the last of which was developed by Looking Glass Studios. Critics found the game fun and praised its graphics and car damage system, but the Nintendo 64 and Sega Saturn releases received mixed reviews. The game started the Destruction Derby franchise, beginning with its 1996 sequel, Destruction Derby 2.

Famous quotes containing the word destruction:
“I am firmly opposed to the government entering into any business the major purpose of which is competition with our citizens ... for the Federal Government deliberately to go out to build up and expand ... a power and manufacturing business is to break down the initiative and enterprise of the American people; it is the destruction of equality of opportunity amongst our people, it is the negation of the ideals upon which our civilization has been based.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
