You Break It, You Profit: Difference between revisions

 

A subtrope of [[Rewarding Vandalism]], where when you break something in a [[Video Game]] you ''receive'' a sum of money equal to the total cost of the damage you've caused. May take the form of a "mayhem mission" for games with a [[Sociopathic Hero]] or [[Villain Protagonist]].

* [[Trope Codifier]] is the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' series of games: you get money when you run over pedestrians, for example. The more you get in a row, the more cash you get for the next in a chain.

* The ''[[Burnout]]'' series has this in most of the games with its "Crash" events (like ''Burnout Paradise'''s "Showtime").
