Poly Bridge 3 is a puzzle-design game about building a bridge, then sending cars over it in the hope they hit the end. Played a solid 15.6 hours before putting it down (there's a lot left to play later). Difficulty starts easy then ramps up to 'how am I supposed to do this?" levels later in. Good game for kids and engineers. This game feels like Poly Bridge 2 with better physics and graphics. Fact, if you don't know where to start in this series, start with 3 and call it a day because 2 is almost too much like it. Had a ton of fun solving all the different bridges. In 3 there is an easy to access 'help' mode where you can see how other plays solved it if you get stuck. Early on you can even steal their blueprints. And about halfway through this wont help as much because people rely on techniques that the game doesn't bother describing to you (like the 'rope bridge' technique). Through trial and error, you can sort them out but it takes longer if you don't monkey around figuring out how everyone else did it. A lot of people stop playing at this point. Going by achievements, 1/10 people actually get all the way through the '3 sheep' difficulty levels. If you don't already know them or can't figure out how other people solve certain bridges or how they go about it, the game can drag on with all the trial and error involved. Some lands give you next to nothing on guidance. And the game doesn't do nearly enough to introduce hydraulics, springs, and the ilk. Anchor points are introduced in PB3. They're overly expensive slabs of under-sea concrete and help with really long bridges. There are more landscapes and a little landscape themeing that's unique. There's a sandbox mode, as well as a mode figuring out other people's bridge/land ideas, leading to hours more fun. PolyBridge 3 has mods to dl for it and you're encouraged to do so. Some make the game easier, others make the game look silly. There are achievement. Most you can get by dorking around long enough and getting through the areas. At least one you can't get unless you're really good and start a new game file. This might be irksome to achievement hunters. I liked Poly Bridge 3. Was worth the money and there's a lot left to build, both in the main game and in the sandbox modes.

Incredibly entertaining puzzle game! After seeing RCE and Aliensrock play this on the Youtubes, I had to try it myself. After 120 hours, I'm still having fun trying to finish (and optimize) the basic levels. Level by level, the challenge keeps increasing and just getting to the end requires more and more outlandish bridge constructions. And once you find a good solution, it's always a fun competition to optimize the design and get on the lowest price leader boards. Game is excellently made. Where the previous versions used to have game mechanics that allowed for cheesy solutions, the devs have made great progress in balancing the materials available and the levels. Now even the top score bridges actually look like bridges, instead of physics abuse. If you like puzzles, bridges, and chill guitar music, this is a must-buy.

Great game, feels like its missing mechanics from the other two games, but all together really well built, not for the weak willed though, later levels can get really frustrating. doesn't baby the player, but also isn't imposable, even though some levels may feel like it. Amazing sandbox too, fun and basically no limitations, as long as you can imagine it you can try it.

When I was in junior high I built a wooden bridge in shop class. When the the teacher put my bridge on the hydraulic press i was nervous, but confident in my build. The teacher pressed the button..... it lasted one second before exploding into a million pieces. Now, thanks to polybridge I can heal my childhood trauma
