Bridge Constructor – Entertainment Game Review
Bridge Constructor is a Entertainment/Simulation/Puzzle game from Headup GmbH, first launched in 23rd May 2012.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 1,104+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Bridge Constructor Stand Out
+++ Over 50 million players worldwide +++
+++ Number 1 in the games charts for iPad & iPhone in 89 countries +++
+++ SlopeMania add-on with 24 brand new levels, sloping roads and an explosive tank truck +++
+++ Trains add-on with 18 new, beautiful levels and two trains as vehicles +++
In Bridge Constructor you have to prove yourself as an accomplished master bridge builder. Play 40 different levels, and build bridges over deep valleys, canals, and rivers. Stress tests reveal whether the bridge you build can withstand the daily stress of continual use from cars, trucks and, more recently, super-heavy tank trucks.
You can choose from a range of materials for each individual bridge, such as wood, steel, cables, or concrete pillars. Use the appropriate materials and stay within budget to build the perfect bridge. The choice of different materials means that there are numerous solutions and approaches and you can build each bridge in any number of ways – your budget is the only limit. The refined grid system allows you to realise your idea of the perfect bridge with even more precision. Let your imagination and creativity run free! And if you happen to run into a dead end, you can pick up valuable tips from the brand new help system!
Awesome Add-Ons: SlopeMania & Trains
In the SlopeMania add-on you find yourself on the Tiltin Islands, home to three brand new islands where you'll even be building your bridges inside colorful grottoes! The 24 tricky, never-before-seen levels will have you using sloping lanes to overcome the massive height differences. The "Crazy Levels" are the real brainteasers and require out-of-the-box thinking and unusual solutions.
Purchase the Trains add-on and get the Choonited Kingdom island group, with a total of 18 new levels across three islands. Build massive bridges that can withstand the enormous weight of the two new vehicles on offer – a commuter train and a heavily loaded freight train. The idyllic and beautifully designed landscapes will make the heart of every railroad fanatic skip a beat.
"Trains" and "SlopeMania" are now available at an affordable price as an in-app purchase!

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This is a fun game if you like building, or relaxing puzzles. Sometimes we cant put it down.
This is a fun game for you builders. It stays challenging as you move along. Even the collapsing bridges are fun, when its back to the drawing stage. A great game if youre stuck somewhere, like an airport, to pass the time. Short enough to do in a quick wait, long enough for a long wait. Enjoy.
We downloaded this over three years ago, and we recently came back to playing it. It is just so fun, but some of the music is depressing. Some of the songs are good, but make the music happier.
This is now literally the only game on our phone. Geniuses built this game.
It is the best game we ever played love it so much fun.
If you think its too hard, you are a noob. Lolz.
We like the budget aspect of this game; makes it challenging. Very amusing when designs fail under their own dead load.
Play this with our grand kids (one at a time) 6-12 year olds. Its a no-rush game different from the crazy action twitcher games they usually play. We have time to talk about solving how to span a space with budget and materials to choose.
Need to add a speed up feature. The vehicles crossing are very slow.
If we had to rate this app we would give it five star as a kid but we originally thought of our friend that moved away to somewhere but we still think about him because of this game we dont feel like anything bad has happened to him because of this amazing and wonderful game.
We kept seeing comedy YouTube channels playing this (well, comically failing at playing it) and thought it looked like fun. It is indeed fun. And we are now convinced the players were intentionally failing, since its not that hard… Ah well, its what drives the clicks… So, to the developers, we must say: your YouTube promotion efforts are working. :P.
Great way to learn structural, ect.
This is probably the oldest app on our phone with the exception of the ones that already came on it. We love this game so much. Its great for when youre bored, or looking to pass the time. Itss also great for when your feeling anxious; its calming enough to relax you but engaging enough to keep your mind occupied. Im really glad that this app not only exists but that its been kept well-updated and running smooth for so many years. Thank you, Bridge Constructor.
We love this game and we're on the fourth level It's so fun to see the funny physics and build bridges that you know will break, but so satisfying to see that you made a bridge that worked, we bought this in the bundle of four games so we'll have to see how fun the other ones are.
This game is awesome we think it is funny and cool to see the bridge fall.and the in app buying is amazing we want everyone to know about this game we told all of our friends and they love it thanks for making this game.
We,m still trying to beat old records.
Play is good. But is hard to stay within budget and rather than just letting you be creative, go over budget and lose points, instead your just stuck. In this way its more a puzzle game. Figure out exactly what they want you to do before moving on.
We bought this because we enjoyed the playground for many weeks. We were disappointed. The absolute budget ceilings prevent you from experimenting and discourage creative or elegant design ideas. You cant design over budget and then go back and improve. The extra-load feature is fun, but again its hard to experiment. As with the playground, the scoring is completely mysterious, with no hint of what your scores are based on. Ive deleted it. We would buy another round of the playground, but none of the further editions like this one.
Its fun till you need to pay for a hint. Then its like a hole in your wallet.
We downloaded this game 2 years ago and bought the levels and recently downloaded it again, now all our levels are gone and its wanting us to buy it again. This is so stupid, just lost a player.
We GET WHAT FEELS LIKE NOTHING we WANT MY MONEY BACK.
You can only play the first map. After that you have to pay if you want to play further.
Im totally disappointed that you have to pay more once you star playing.
The app does not load! It will get stuck at 8% every time we try opening it. Waste of $2.
Very challenging puzzles with a touch of science.
If you love making bridges, this game is THE BEST.
Fun addicting game. Amazing graphics, challenging bridges to build.
Whenever we try to launch the game, it gets stuck at 8% and never loads. Only does this sometimes. Other than that it's an amazing game. Extremely addicting.
There is a glitch where you can't use the last truck to go over your bridges but other then that great game. Easy to just lose yourself in.
Once you choose one material you cannot choose a new one. Meaning it's impossible to pass certain levels. The building needs to be fixed.
It had to use our knowledge of tension and stress. The color changes of the beam help a lot. Fun game for people who like to solve problem. Would love a sandbox mode after beating the levels.
Pretty good time killer warning this game will piss you off but when you get it you will love it.
Yay! They eliminated the ads. Such a great STEM engineering game! Learning bridge materials, strongest shapes, and various different construction styles. Really creative concept and our boys love it (8 and 5).
Fun game and a great way to learn aome physics.
It's fun design lets us play it on the go not taking up too much of our time. We just love the puzzles challenging us to think.
Really fills that need for an analytical and strategic game.
We love this game, and we tried out the lite version, but we were expecting no ads in the full paid for version! This is making us annoyed that we paid for this expecting no ads but they are still there… Please fix/change this so that the full version doesn't have ads.
Way to many adds for a game you have to buy.
After paying for this we have made a huge mistake. This game literally flashes up an add more than any game we have ever played. You will spend more time trying to close ads than you will actually playing guaranteed. Do not buy this ripoff.
Challenging enough to keep it interesting.
Really enjoyable physics puzzle game, and makes you think about the forces at work while building the bridges.
We love this game. Super addictive. The new update was great. We wish they would continue to expand it more. We need a new expansion update bad. It would also be nice if they added a more detailed grid option like their other bridge constructor game.
Fun game. Challenging and addictive.
This is a fun little puzzle game that math and physical science teachers could suggest to students. If they exaggerated things bending and stretching or had a setting that allowed it rather than connections just falling that would be nice. The setting would make pushing and pulling forces supper easy to understand.
We wanna applaud to the great deal of thought and work that's put into this game, awesome job keep up the good work.
This is like mini engineer game.
Best building game we've seen so far.
Unbelievable and interesting but rather easy.
We're an engineering student so it is quite fun to build those structure in the spare time. However, the game is a bit too short; and more creative features could be added in the future games.
Best bridge building game by far. The physics seem to work better than any of its competitors.
