10 Video Games That Let You Destroy The World

4. Goat Simulator

Goat Simulator Earth destroyed
Coffee Stain Studios

Glitch extravaganza Goat Simulator somehow did well enough to receive a handful of DLC expansions, from the zombie-centric GoatZ to the futuristic Waste Of Space.

These were fun themed distractions that brought along new areas to explore and new cosmetics to play with, while also adding some fresh gameplay elements like crafting, test chambers, spaceship-piloting, and the ability to build a colony. Oh, and you can also blow up the Earth, just as a bit of fun on the side.

Licking a battery and dragging it up to a nearby radar dish will play out a short cutscene in which a laser beam is charged up and unleashed upon our lovely little planet, splitting it into several sizeable pieces.

Once the deed is done, the game greets you with the message "Earth is no more. Sadface", and even gives you some money as a reward. Just another day in the life of your average goat.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
