Very epic game Took me 8 trillion years to finish the levels starting from 2 (not the tutorial ones) You can: Make a very terrible bridge and then point and laugh at the vehicles falling Make a terrible bridge and then be amazed that the car actually survived and made it to the other side Rage over the budget Use the absolute maximum of your brain and create a bridge (that actually doesn't fall) with the lowest amount of money possible And some more things that i can't think of while writing this review. I got this game from a 90% discount which makes this game absolutely worth it

It's damn hard! I completed many bridge builder games before Poly Bridge and these gave me a good knowledge start, but the new expandable hydraulic cylinder opens up so much more possibilities with moving bridges, that this game sticks out very different. It took me more than double the time to complete Poly Bridge than any other bridge builder. Pro - The TRACING TOOL! <3<3<3 is so awesome! It helps create a perfect parabolic or rather catenary shape for perfect gravitational force distribution. - The hydraulic cylinder adds so much cool builds and possibilities! - You can get really creative and that's really cool and fun! - Hard challenges! Contra - Two simulations of the same build can have two different outcomes. The simulation is not consistent. - nodes can only be moved with shift+click (two button presses, not one), so you can not play with one hand, but need a second hand on the keyboard. - you can't move several beams or nodes at once. You have to cut and insert the pieces which requires the selected pieces to not still be connected to other beams. So in order to move several beams/nodes you need to delete adjacent beams to cut them off, then cut/copy and paste them. - You can't move two existing nodes to be connected to one another. You have to delete one and then create a new beam to it. - While building a beam: possible connecting nodes are indicated too vague (light gray to white little circle and no dashed line) - While building a beam: can't press a button to connect to all possible connectable nodes (like in Bridge Builder Portal). - You can't build beams in free space. You have to start building from a fix node until you reach the desired area and then cut the connecting pieces. Or copy a beam and paste it mid-air. - You also can't start the tracing tool on blank space, it needs to be started on a node. - Built hydraulic movements can only be tested when the preset timeline reaches the hydraulic part, which often requires the first vehicle wave to pass the bridge. So in order to test something for later on you first need to get all the stuff before running. Anyway, I very much enjoyed Poly Bridge for it's creativity, freedom of solutions and hardcore challenges. This made me think hard!

Goes on sale pretty regularly down to $1.50 AUD which is 1000% worth it no questions asked, extremely satisfying when you create a bridge you have no hope for and see your concoction miraculously somehow work, up until the last moment when 1 single piece breaks and the entire thing comes crashing down infront of your eyes, but somehow it's still satisfying

For someone whose mind isn't wired around engineering, the game becomes difficult rather quickly. However, it is still a very good sandbox.
