  • The game has great graphics and a fun user interface, making it enjoyable to play.
  • It's addictive and provides a good challenge, especially for those who enjoy engineering and construction.
  • The game allows for creative bridge designs without strict budget constraints, enhancing the gameplay experience.
  • The game is misleadingly labeled as free; players can only access a few levels before being prompted to purchase the full version.
  • There are excessive ads that interrupt gameplay, making it frustrating for users.
  • Some badge requirements are unclear or impossible to achieve, leading to confusion and dissatisfaction.
  • monetization122 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has been widely criticized for its excessive use of ads, with players reporting that ads appear after nearly every level and often interrupt gameplay. Many users feel that the game is essentially a demo, as significant portions of content are locked behind a paywall, leading to frustration over the combination of constant ads and the need to purchase additional levels. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as intrusive and detrimental to the gaming experience, prompting many players to uninstall the game.

    • “The in-app purchases are well-balanced and don't feel forced.”
    • “I appreciate that there is a clear choice in the monetization methods available.”
    • “The monetization strategy enhances the gameplay experience without being intrusive.”
    • “It's an okay game, pretty good actually, but if you're a person who hates ads, the ads are 5 seconds long and they're literally every stage you go to advance. There's a game I play that has zero ads and is free. I don't mind a few, but not every time you advance to a stage that could be less than what the ad is.”
    • “After a few bridges, you need to pay to play. After hundreds of ads, they are still asking for money. Whoever built this game loves money and will do anything for it. Be careful, guys. Stay away.”
    • “You can't call a demo free and then put ads in it. It's all ads and very little content.”
