The most gratifying sandbox creation games, I find, are those with a “nuke everything” option. It’s simple catharsis. There’s an endgame feature in the original Sim City, for instance, that allows you to summon a natural or unnatural disaster – a forest fire, a tornado, Godzilla – to pick your bustling, carefully balanced metropolis apart, street by street. All things must perish, after all, and why let the Grim Reaper hog the fun when you can wield the scythe yourself?
