Bridge Building Game is a game where you build bridges.
The name of the game is pretty suggestive. Basically you need to build bridges in order to pass the levels. This is not that easy as it sounds because some levels can be pretty difficult.
The provided maps provide you an area with a water course. You need to build a bridge over it on order to support the mass (weight) of a given train. You have a limited budget. The bridge segments are also limited.
You need to start your bridge from an anchor point. You need to build strong bridges in order to be able to pass the level. The game allows you infinite tries.
You can see where your bridge is weak as you can use the 'Stress' function. You can also sense where are the trouble elements which can jeopardize the entire bridge.
The graphics of this game are not very good. However it's pretty addictive while you try to find out the proper solution for a certain level.
Bridge Builder Game is a beta release. It is not under active development, so the found bugs won't be corrected. For example you can't modify the track angle, so you can't finish the last level from the first set of maps, or a level from the second set of maps that encounters the same issue.
Pluses: it is addictive, it requires some brainpower in order to solve certain levels.
Drawbacks / flaws: it has some annoying bugs, the interface is quite old.
In conclusion: this is one of the games that might take countless hours from your life in order to solve specific levels of this game.
