Bridge Constructor Portal
I write this review as someone who had played Portal, but who had never played any of the Bridge Constructor titles. (I knew that games like it were out there, but I was unaware that this wasn’t the first ‘Bridge Constructor’ title released.) As such, the bridge constructor game concept was new to me. It was the Portal tie-in that piqued my interest. If this is you, then this review will be more relevant.
I’ve always enjoyed titles like this that challenge the intellect, without a ‘timer’ on it. I want something that my mind can chew on for a while. Much like chess, you need to think many ‘moves’ ahead to develop your strategy. Furthermore, the game does rely on a knowledge of basic physics. You don’t need a PhD in physics to play, although it wouldn’t hurt… lol Seriously though, they do offer some basic physics tips to help understand how and why certain designs work better than others.

PolyBridge skills don’t fail me now
Oh the fun time building bridges so people can safely continue their travels. The trial and error it takes as you continue to test which parts work and which parts break under the pressure. Does each element work out for the better or will it cause people to die? And more importantly, will these vehicles be able to go through these portals?
When looking for a puzzle game that will test your mind constantly, you can’t go wrong with bridge construction games. With Bridge Construction Portal, this does not deviate with testing the mind. With the levels starting out easy to get the hang of things, each bridge jumps in difficulty throughout all 60 levels. The only difference between this and other bridge building games is the inclusion of Portal as instead of building a bridge that looks like everyday people would use when they travel, you’re in testing chambers. And instead of empty vehicles…well there may be people on them.
