While the types and number of races are randomized in each event, the gameplay consists of driving to an event, completing a few races, and then repeating this process at the next event. However, the mode may not always be enjoyable. The career mode in Eve of Destruction offers 25 different race events and various side races for players to participate in, providing a good amount of gameplay. What about any inherent campaign mode in the game? Overall, it is clear that Eve of Destruction is fond of the sport of demolition derbies. The goal is to be the last car standing by, smashing into other vehicles. That includes chain races and traditional demolition derbies.

In addition to the diverse selection of cars, the game also boasts a variety of race types. The game features many vehicles, including compact cars, sedans, muscle cars, and even school buses and ambulances.

In action mode, players can participate in single- or multiplayer races using available arenas, cars, and race types. The main menu offers two options: action and career. Upon starting Test Drive: Eve of Destruction, it becomes clear that the game's developers prioritized its core features over aesthetics.
