Poly Bridge

This game is one of my favorites ive played on pc, absolutely love it, but i bought the mobile version to play while at work and i find that the games physics are completely different, and bridge designs that held up perfectly on pc snap like a twig in the mobile version. With this i feel at least 10 of the levels ive played so far are near impossible if not impossible to get 3 stars on in mobile given that the bridge that is meant to be built and work perfectly on said level is bugged in mobile and doesn't work, forcing you to reinforce it past budget. Love this game but would really like to see some optimization on mobile.

Super fun! This game will keep you occupied for longer than steam doing updates. Immensely fun and satisfying to finally complete the level you have been stuck on for the past hour. On top of that, if you had enough of that level, skip it and save it for later when you have more experience. There are no repercussions for skipping the level, other than completeness. I reccomend watching AliensRock on youtube if you still dont know if you want to buy it. Well worth the three or so bucks. 10/10

As a player who has unlock the secret world,(every level 3 star other than area 52) I enjoyed the game soo much. The simulation is amazing, all the levels force you to be creative, and it’s overall great fun! Except for some of the levels, the tedious ones. these levels are the types of levels that force you to keep adjusting you’r creation one tiny bit at a time until you’r bridge doesn’t break. So if you want to unlock the secret world you’ll need to invest many hours.

I really want to like this game more than I do. Unfortunately the controls really irritate me. To scroll around the screen it only takes one finger drag so more often than not I end up scrolling rather than placing a bridge item. An easy solution to this would be to require 2 fingers to navigate the screen. I thought this may be an option in the settings but i didnt see it. I have played quite a few bridge const games and have found myself having the most issues navigating with this one.

The problem is that you you can contract a hydraulic up to 50% (halving), with the opposite of this being expanding 100% (doubling). The game only allows you to expand a hydraulic 50%, meaning that two identical hydraulics starting in opposite configurations at full range of motion are impossible. This means I have to reengineer a second solution for what should be an identical second bridge in level 2-13 Either there needs to be the ability to expand a hydraulic 100%, or you need to be able to set a hydraulic to start in a different simulated state when the level is run. The first solution would work and be much less invasive a change than adding starting states for hydraulics, but that leads to the second design flaw. In order to create something in a different state, you still have to completely redraw it. There really should be a way to move and rotate groups of joints in order to translate existing designs. The lack of this ability means redrawing constantly. 3 stars because the issues mentioned seriously impede on the fun aspects of gameplay

I love this game so much. It’s the perfect challenge puzzle game with realistic physics. The challenge of making your bridges work and stay under budget always has me thinking of ways I can do more with less. However my one and only complaint with the game is how heavy it runs the battery down. Just playing for 5-8 minutes knocks off 10% or more of my battery power. It’s been the top consumer of energy on my phone since downloading. It also causes my phone to get very hot as the demand on the phones performance is increased. If there’s an update that could improve the functionality of this games performance impact on my phone I’d give it 6 stars if I could. Until then due to the high impact on battery life my review will remain a 3.

This is a really awesome, and challenging game. It's not like one of those games with arbitrary criteria for winning. It gives you very detailed information on objectives and precise visualization of stresses. You can change the camera angles and speed up or slow down gameplay to really get granular with how you solve each design challenge. The graph that shows how your design compares to that of other players is a nice touch. I keep trying different designs just to be more economical. The developer gets extra kudos for making a game free of any up-sells. Worth every cent!

I would give it 5 stars, no problem, except for one major playability issue that could be fixed easily. As a matter of fact, I will make it 5 stars of the developers add one customization option: Resizeable buttons on the top/bottom of the play screen. The materials, tools and various other control buttons are EXTREMELY difficult to touch on my Pixel 6 Pro, I think they would be on any smart phone, maybe not tablets, but I can't press the buttons easily, sometimes at all. Makes it hard to play.

Really good game !! I was looking for good bridge building game for a while now. This one seems to be the best so far. Only it complaint and thus 4 stars. If I get a successful run, change a couple of things which breaks it and revert those couple of changes, it doesn't always give the original results. A bug? Do the calculations have some memory from last run?

great game, but one thing i don't know is whether beams have weight or only the cars have weight. the game also does not explain the various features very well. for example, i went through half of the game before realizing hydraulics could work in compression as well as tenson... i also didn't know that hydraulics could be turned on or off for steps. without this knowledge, some levels are impossible. also, the numbering is backwards if you split a joint which is fixed to an anchor point.
