Melon Sandbox

You can create chaotic physics-based scenes using explosives, vehicles, and funny melon people. The vehicle builder lets you combine parts like tank treads and jet engines, while the terrain editor allows you to carve ramps and half-pipes for destructive stunts.

Yes, it has a robust vehicle builder where you can attach parts like spinning blades, jet engines, and tank treads to create custom contraptions. You can then test them against ramps or other objects to see how quickly they fall apart.

The touch controls can be imprecise, especially when trying to rotate or position small items on a phone screen. A common workaround is to zoom in closely before placing objects and use the undo button if you accidentally knock something over.

The physics engine can get overwhelmed by too many simultaneous explosions or complex structures. Try saving your scene and restarting the app, or reduce the number of active objects by deleting some before detonating everything.

Both are physics sandboxes, but Melon Sandbox is more casual and mobile-friendly, with lighter graphics and a focus on silly melon characters. People Playground offers more detailed gore and complex mechanics, but Melon Sandbox is easier to pick up for quick, mindless fun.
