Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The game is pretty good, a few too many ads, but otherwise it allows you to play all of its 360 levels without any sort of pay walls or micro transactions blocking access. Thats the main pro of this game, the cons are more with the gameplay. One of our main two cons is how few options of materials there are to build bridges from, with only wood, steel, rope, cable and hydraulics, (and roads but those we dont count) with wood being the main one due to the others being way too expensive to use in most cases. Our other con is with the way that nodes that are meant to disconnect and reconnect again (we.e. A drawbridge) and how one side will sometimes move slightly faster or slower than the other, causing on side to land on top of the other side, applying pressure to that side and causing it to break, instead of reconnecting and merging together as intended. This is more of a big we think so we hope the devs could put out a patch to solve this. Overall the games a nice way to enjoy the whole bridge building game experience without having to pay a bunch. (Also if the ads are really annoying then pro tip is to just throw your phone on airplane mode before opening the app, as it works without WiFi. But you didnt hear that from us, we watch the ads to support the devs!).
The game was, well, ok. Its a classic bridge simulator. Issue is, you get full screen adds along with it.
Really really good but we need more levels.
Im rating this three stars well mostly because theres way to many ads like we get an ad before we start a level we get an ad when Im in the middle of building a bridge or even finishing it we even get an ad after we complete a level also can yall add more levels it was easy to beat in three hours maybe more idk but Id like to see this game get an update.
This game is really good but extremely hard and its physics are very very unrealistic.
Good game but level 14 is broken. The cars go over the bridge just fine but at the end of the road they just fall into the void. Fix this.
Good game, ads are not a problem if you turn your wi-fi off.
The levels of the game are phenomenal! We love the way you have made a custom levels option where you can build your own! There are quite a bit of ads, so we do hope you guys work on a little less ads inbetween levels. Glad such a great game is free to play, though.
We like this game, but its a Poly Bridge ripoff, because it has some levels from the original game. And you dont have many choices in the sandbox.
Ads, ads, and did we mention ads.
Our kid loves this game but when there are violent adds popping up we cant have him playing it. Just offer a subscription option so we can get rid of the gross advertisements. PS. You shouldnt have a 4+ rating when you cant guarantee the content of the ads.
Bad's an understatement.. Game is awful.
The game is AMAZING read other reviews for better understanding, there one thing that drives us insane, not sure if it happens for other people. We load the game play for 30 second and we start hearing a kick sound every second it annoys us and bothers us theres no way we can turn it off, even in adverts we hear the kicking.
Why does the iOS version contain ads that we cannot get rid of while Android does not.
This game is a challenge you have many levels to pass by and they are hard. You have to be very creative with your bridges to make them work but sometimes its to hard and you have to spend a lot of time and focus on it but in the end the game is really fun and good.
So first off its a really good game and its fun. We did see reviews saying the ads are a problem and we got a solution. We play on mobile so it might not work for all, on the ad click the x then when it says ads by Google say stop seeing this ad . No more ads after that.
Very great game, and very solidly executed. Our favorite part is its free, but the devs dont shove cash offers in your face for in-game currency or stuff like that. The ads are perfectly placed, never too numerous, and they have a function to increase the budget on a level for watching an ad! Which is pretty fair in our opinion. Big thank you to the devs for making this game! Very refreshing.
We swear, this is the best free bridge builder Ive ever got. Theres a Level Editor after you beat the first 15 levels, (which are admittedly challenging at times, but serves as a tutorial.) Gonna jump into the editor rn.
This game is very distracting. Our friend Lowell plays this game instead of playing trombone and it is annoying. Do NOT recommend.
So we just got this game today and we really think it is good.we completed the first chapter of the game and we tried to do the level maker and its not letting us build.Can you please fix this.
We gave this around half the stars cause we wanted to play sandbox but we could make the level and do every thing but play the level like whats the point for sandbox with out being able to properly use it we gave it half because this is like half the game and you cant use it we dont know if this is a bug but please fix it.
Cool but gave it three stars for too many ads.
Game was pretty fun until a recent update where the ads will start running in the middle of building, got about 5 ads in 5 mins of building. They used to be between attempts and less frequent. Now this is unplayable.
In the middle of playing tutorial, and Apples new alert letting you know when something is being pasted, pops up. Id been using Firefox browser earlier and had copied a link to share with friends. While playing we see the alert says Pasted from Firefox. Isnt his what got Tik Tok in trouble when it was Chinese-owned.
We love making a bridge it is so fun we cant stop playing this game and we have a walking dead bridge game its so fun to and well Ive had a lot of bridge games we played them and it makes us want to make a real bridge so we love this game we play this game all day so thanks for making this game. We love this game so much we cant stop playing it and we love this game.
Ive played a LOT of bridge games on mobile and most of the free ones require you to pay for more levels. This is probably the best one Ive played so far! The tutorial teaches everything really well and how to use your tools.
And when a level is too hard it means youll be trapped in that level forever unable to access the hundred levels beyond it. We love the Bzier curve tool. That tool alone takes the game from ordinary to extraordinary.
This is the certified best free bridge building game Ive tried every game we could find and we found that this one was the best overall.
We really enjoy this game, it uses a little brain power but instead of making you mad it makes you laugh when your bridge collapses.
Amazing game we love a lot of levels and is very fun.
Its really fun to play when you want to use your creativity and not your money for other bridge games. This game is simple and doesnt have the bad low quality backgrounds. Physics are great and accurate. The only problem was there were some difficult levels that required outside the box thinking that a casual builder wouldnt know. Right now, Im just wishing there were more levels but the set of 120 was able to hold us over for a month. Overall 5/5 stars would recommend.
This is the best building game we have ever seen but the secret world either isn't very secret, or doesnt exist. Still THE BEST FREE BRIDGE GAME THERE IS.
The game is very entertaining but the bug in level 34 is preventing us from playing more. The first truck crossing the bridge dont stop at the flag and keeps driving forever and fell down at the end of the map.
Its a poly bridge ripoff and impossible to play and the amount of ads.
Its good quality game but it copys the idea of poly bridge but keep the hydroelectrics we still gave it 5 stars still.
We saw in a video of our YouTuber Jelly who loves this is a great game.
Not sure how long the game goes on.
It gets a lot more frustrating and boring later in the campaign as you need to more technical things but a good game still.
