Community Insight:

Our kids love it and we like to build stuff and it keeps them busy and theres no ads. Its just the best to get it.


But build a bridge stole your ads.


We exist in a world of tin. The tin chewy snacks are like tinny timmy tim toms. This game is a work of modern fart, and we're glad we played it. Even the rats in our cupboard enjoyed eating uranium and building bridges made of materials. "Don't postpone joy." Indeed a classic with our Dwayne The Rock Johnson Jr plushie. Love the smell of our armpits after playing this for 12 hours. Horse. Hours. Fun. John Wick read this yesterday. Great game.


Updated for iphone x. We are currently using iphone 13. Its june 18, 2024.


We watched this game so much as a kid it looked so fun and playing it now was the best.


Im the worlds best bridgebuilder and yeah.


A very fun and challenging game to build bridges and not go over budget, and we love playing it.


We got to throw a family of five off of a bridge good game.


Some Levels are little tricky but some are easy.


Flying cars lol they are supposed to be real in 2026 but to late its already here lol.


Five out of five would build many bridges again.


This is a awesome game we love to build the bridges its a really fun game and we like it.


We think its a fun game and very well made, although some levels can get hard, but we pass them eventually. We think you should get poly bridge 2 first though. It saves money and has more features.


Just the best physics, graphics and user interface out there.


We instantly got hooked and am going to be playing to at least an houre.


Worth the money if you willing to put in the time to become a bridge and engineer.


Dont need to play past the third level, this game is awesome.


To make it happen you press the button in the bottom right corner but before you have to have your play us and you is it to the Tropical paradise and having it at the last one can you go to the menu press the button in the bottom right corner go back and get some secrets another one is if you do that thing and then achievement the trophy button then go back theres a few more.


We think this game is amazing, because it challenges your engineering skills while still being fun AND having good graphics. 5/5 would recommend.


Its amazing we downloaded it and entered and thought wow its amazing but how do we make a suspension bridge.


Simply put, an iPhone screen is not big enough for the intricate placement of building materials needed to construct these complex bridges which may lead to frustration at points, but this is no fault of the game. However, an iPad screen is perfectly sized for this game. Also the real world physics of the game require a lot of computing power and therefore battery, which is another reason iPad is better suited with its larger battery. Other than that, this game is a lot of fun and its clear the developer put real time into it. Totally worth it.


Omg we saw that comment and we disagree with the guy with hating the controls. The game is the best u just need auto build we tried the game for ourselves and its worth every penny.


It is good but get poly bridge 2 instead.


Finally an App our son and we can enjoy together for hours while LEARNING real engineering concepts! He doesnt even know its happening (the learning) but hes pointing out trusses all over the place in real life now, and commenting on how they could maybe be improved on. Great stuff.


This. Game. Is. Awesome. The developers are genius. Really fun if you want to mess around or try to show your creative skills! 10/10 people. Play it.


Th game is the most fun Ive had in years.


We have spent hours playing this game. We recommend this to all online teachers who teach 2-5th grade to show your kids these games. Reminds us when we were in elementary. We were tasked to make bridged out of straws and see how much weight it could handle. Fun times.


So Im looking for poly bridge 2 and we cant fined it pl do somthing about that for Ipads.


We just got a new car and we have to go get our car and then we will be home we have a couple of days to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and we have to go to the movies and.


Its just straight up challenging and thats the best part.


This game is a timeless masterpiece constructed with fun challenges and great critical thinking puzzles, definitely worth checking out, garentiee you will love it.


The sandbox mode is not working but the story mode is amazing.


We had beeten the game and the app froze on us. We delete it with a backup and it wouldnt load. The phisics changed and now our designs dont work.


This Game is great, we play it both in our iPhone when Im on the go, and in our iPad for an even better experience.


We owned it on PC for quite a while and couldn't help ourselves when we saw it on iOS.


The only thing we dont like is the controls. Theyre kinda wack on mobile.


Ive played this game for a little while. On level 5-5, we are under budget and no breaks but when the vehicle crosses, it gives us 1 star and says over-budget. Also, we have finished the all levels up to 5-8, but nothing is showing up on the map. We got 3 stars on 5-5, 5-6, 5-7, and 5-8, but all of them show a grey circle with 0 stars on the map. We need help with this.


We cant even rave because of the wonderful acoustic guitar in the background. And Im so relaxed playing it. Instant 5 stars.


Very fun challenging game to play whenever.


Puts fun in physics, as it applies to stress and distribution. Totally recommended. Excellent sandbox.


Im loving this game so far however there seems to be a bugh on level 2-3 Eye Eye that we only spent 16,000 out of the 20,000 given and it says over budget and gave us one star… It also started us with a bridge already partially competed it was a bit confusing… Otherwise its incredibly fun.


The game is fun but it feels like it is missing something but we know poly bridge 2 will be better.


Dry Cactus did a great job making their PC game into an enjoyable mobile experience. Definitely worth the five bucks.


Ive watched a couple people play this game before and it looked pretty fun. Ive only seen people play on computers so we were pleased to see they have mobile versions. You get the same building options and functionality (campaign/sandbox) however you cannot get custom content (at least we havent found out how yet if you can.) Love the graphics and challenges they give you, very creative. Definitely worth it.


This game bangs nah jp its hella chill.


So worth the money. We cannot say enough about this game.


This game is so fun we play it all day every time we can BEST GAME EVER.


Every time we try to put on supports it wont let us and it wont let us finish a bridge.


Im very impressed with this game. The physics feel nearly perfected, and the high difficulty gives us a fun challenge. The sandbox mode is also fun, and it allows us to freely test out our ideas. If you are into engineering and puzzles like we are, then you will definitely get a kick out of this game.


This game is nice and fun. BUT, there should be a hint button to give you help on a level that you are stuck on. Maybe if you are stuck on that level for a certain amount of time it will appear. Or after a certain number of times you fail it will appear.
