What the Buck?! inverts the typical idle game by making destruction rather than accumulation your goal. Smash currency stacks while upgrading your demolition capacity and automating withdrawals, then trigger bankruptcies to reset and multiply your destructive output. It's designed for players who enjoy incremental progression loops but want the absurdist appeal of watching financial systems collapse rather than build.
