Elements of Destruction is a strategy game developed by Frozen Codebase, LLC and released in 2008 for PC and Xbox 360. The player takes the role of a disgraced research scientist who constructs a machine capable of manipulating natural forces, then uses it to wage a campaign of revenge against the corporation responsible for his dismissal. Gameplay centers on deploying a variety of environmental catastrophes — including tornadoes, earthquakes, and lightning strikes — across locations around the world. Each setting presents distinct challenges that require the player to apply these forces in targeted ways: earthquakes bring down buildings, tornadoes lift and hurl objects, and lightning takes out aircraft. The emphasis is on causing large-scale destruction strategically, managing which natural weapon suits each objective as the campaign progresses through cities and towns on a global scale.
Dr. Edgar Herbert's employer tried to kill him by dropping him into the Atlantic, far from civilization. Washing up on an island, Edgar found an old nuclear testing facility on it and started planning for a new project. Now able to turn himself into energy, upload to a satellite and go anywhere he has one last goal to complete..... His revenge.
