Destroy the Wall

Destroy the Wall is an action game set in a desolate world of caverns, windswept plains and ruined forests. Your character follows the cursor, but the two must not touch: they share a health pool, and contact damages you. You push through rooms and the Wall’s ramparts and towers, uncover forgotten memories, gain ancient powers and hear messages from the Wall’s master.

Movement and combat

Running into a wall also causes damage. Monsters roam the world and attack in distinct ways, either by hitting your cursor directly or using ranged attacks to damage it, with one exception that is redacted in the game’s description. Striking an enemy with your character damages it and knocks your character backward; as you progress, you can learn other ways to harm monsters.

When you die, you respawn at the start of the current room, only seconds back. Killing monsters grants EXP, which can increase attributes such as health, damage and acceleration. The game offers difficulty settings ranging from “Painkiller” to “Everything hurts.”

Explore the world

The game contains over 400 levels across twelve areas with distinct mechanics and visuals. You can find fragments of the past scattered throughout the world and internalize them to gain powers and open new paths. The description also mentions discovering redacted content associated with a redacted name.

Enemies and bosses

More than 40 monsters have unique attack patterns. They include giant swords that swing at you, pollution organs that fill the area with clouds of smoke, and friendly hearts whose gift of love takes the form of a deadly laser. The game also has 13 boss fights.

Art and soundtrack

Sprites and levels use hand-drawn art with a deliberately janky aesthetic. The soundtrack shifts between brooding and epic as you travel through the world.

Key features

• 40 levels that grant benefits as you progress; you start at level 1, so the description notes that only 39 can be gained.
• Over 200 cosmetic collectibles, with the description stating they can be obtained through a slot machine loot box system by winning 10 battle royale games or spending money.
