About

Welcome to Dumbville’s least reputable construction company! Safety violations are likely, survival is optional, and your co-workers are the real occupational hazard. Dumb Ways to Build is a chaotic physics-based cooperative game filled with deadly construction Jobs that no sane crew would touch. Rally your friends, and put their building skills (and friendships) to the ultimate test, facing both intentional and unintentional sabotage along the way. Players wield construction tools to build, panic and improvise their way out of chaotic, and often fatal, situations. Whether tackling the perilous jobsite with friends in up to four-player online cooperative play, or braving it alone in Solo Play, there really are so many Dumb Ways to Die.
