  • story12 mentions

    The story aspect of the game is generally viewed as lacking depth, with many players finding the missions overly challenging and frustrating, often feeling that they are designed to push for in-game purchases. While some appreciate the cute graphics and fun missions, the excessive ads and slow progression detract from the overall experience, leading to mixed feelings about the narrative engagement.

    • β€œI like that there is plenty to do by going back for the missions.”
    • β€œReminds me of some other good bridge games. I also like the fact that you can complete a bridge to unlock extra missions for that same mission, which gives the game far more challenge.”
    • β€œVery good game because it has physics and logic. All games have a story, but this one tells us about gravity.”
    • β€œThanks for making this game, but it sucks sometimes. Your mission is impossible to complete with three stars. For my mission to build a bridge, I have to use only 4500 money or less. How can I build a bridge so long when the budget is too small? Please don't download this; it really sucks.”
    • β€œJust garbage, there are too many ads and then you need an excessive amount of coins because they give you the hard missions early on.”
    • β€œGame not good, basically all missions are almost impossible so they can get you to buy easy mode. You shouldn't have to pay money for easy mode; don't play this game, the developers are greedy.”
