This is the world's first bridge-building game to faithfully incorporate both aquatic and aviation simulations. Unfortunately, a bridge expert was unavailable, so that aspect of the game consists of how I imagine bridges are built.

Controls

Simply drag the items from your backpack in the top-right and get building! Should you regret dragging a particular item, you may right-click whilst dragging to put it back (or on mobile, simultaneously press with a second finger).

Keyboard shortcuts:

  • R to restart current level (mobile: four-finger tap)
  • 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9: Load respective level (if unlocked)
  • 0: Load level 10 (if unlocked)
  • Shift + 10: Load levels 11–20 (if unlocked)

Once you have completed all 20 levels (double-click/tap to advance final screen), you may hold spacebar (mobile: three-finger tap) to engage turbo mode.

Solutions (spoiler-free if you don't click anything)

If you are really stuck, you may use the below links to view a possible solution for each level. They open images in a new tab.

  1. Is It About My Cube?
  2. Bill Nye Just Walked In
  3. Snake Pit
  4. Tree Feller
  5. Urban Planner
  6. Oceanic Egypt
  7. Billboard
  8. Boundless Bananas
  9. Brainy Businessman
  10. Bridge? What Bridge?

Solutions are not provided for level 11 and beyond. If you made it that far, you are more than capable of carrying on without guidance!
