 A writer for GamePro called Destruction Derby " the most raucous racing experience of the fall " . He believed that its " graphics are almost all you could want for a game " of this type , but wrote that " nothing here stands out as graphically spectacular " . He complained that the game does not let players customise cars , and he disliked its lack of split @-@ screen multiplayer . He summarised , " Limited options keep Destruction Derby out of the winner 's circuit , but this rowdy stock @-@ car racer still generates a stadium full of thrashin ' fun . " Victor Lucas of The Electric Playground stated that " the beauty of the game " is the strategy involved in making " calculated strikes " against enemy vehicles , and he wrote , " If you go all out and try to make big noise on the track , more than likely you 'll be limping to the scrap yard in seconds . " He believed that the game 's Stock Car racing mode " is no match for the white knuckle inertia of either Wipeout or Ridge Racer " , and that the demolition derbies in The Bowl were " most fun to be had " in the game . He praised the game 's graphics and physics , and concluded , " Destruction Derby is a winner in every capacity . "
