Opinion:
Dash of Destruction is a free Indie game published by Doritos, and is an extremely glorified commercial tool.

In Dash of Destruction, there are two modes of gameplay, both occurring on the same city maps. In one mode you play as a Doritos delivery truck. You race around town delivering Doritos. This is achieved by driving over Doritos bags. However, the player is doing this while a Tyrannosaurus Rex is chasing them, attempting to eat the truck. It is a race to see if the player can make a certain number of deliveries before the T-Rex can eat a certain number of trucks. In some levels, there is an additional truck, named the Rogue Delivery Truck, who attempts to steal your deliveries.

In the second mode, the player takes the role of the Tyrannosaurus Rex and must eat a certain number of delivery trucks before the trucks make a certain number of deliveries. In some levels, an additional T-Rex is present on the map that attempts to eat the trucks before the player can eat them.

Overall Dash of Destruction is a decent little game to jump into for a change of pace. As expected it does not do anything special, and the game mechanics are extremely basic.  Its free, so hey, why not check it out? But if you have plenty of other things to play then you wont miss anything by skipping it. I will note that it is extremely easy to get Achievement points in.
