I am obsessed with games or toys that replicate chaos or spreading disasters, like fire spreading in Far Cry 2 or water flooding in Cities: Skylines or collapsing buildings in the newer Battlefield games. I wish there were more games with unscripted chaos.

Have you played any of the games from the Red Faction franchise?

I recommend you get Noita on Steam. It's a falling sand style game where you are a little wizard whose wands are built from a little Programmingesque component system.

Noita is a great game, I've been playing it recently. The Chaos is pretty slow-burn (Ah ha!) though.

Teardown is probably the state of the art in unscripted destruction. Frankly, there hasn't been a lot of innovation in deep environmental interaction in AAA games for some time. Far Cry 2 still remains a highlight 12 years later.

Teardown is amazing, I for sure thought it would be another tech demo that never released but they made a fully playable game with gameplay loops and story out of it.
