The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay, often appearing after every level or failed attempt. Many players express frustration over the lack of an option to purchase an ad-free experience, with some noting that the game feels like a cash grab, especially when in-app purchases are required to unlock additional content or features. While some users acknowledge the need for ads in free games, the overwhelming frequency and length of these ads have led to a largely negative reception, with many stating that it detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.
βGood bridge builders are hard to find, and this is one of them. Good graphics, in-app purchases for cool stuff, and easy to play!β
βLove this game! Works amazing, great graphics, runs perfectly, doesn't need internet, great time killer, and little to no ads.β
βGreat graphics, no ads, and it's very amusing.β
βI expected to get a quality game, but got a poorly made cash grab instead.β
βThe amount of ads within this game is ridiculous, and completely spoils the fun in it; everything you do you have to endure watching 30-second ads.β
βYou spend more time waiting for ads to finish than playing the levels.β

βThe graphics are the best I've seen in my lifetime.β
βThe graphics and game mechanics are simply amazing and offer hours of fun gameplay!β
βThis game is amazing, the graphics are insane.β
βGame did not adjust to the screen ratio and was very slow and laggy even though my phone has 3GB of RAM and can run heavier 3D games than this on high graphics.β
βGlitchy bad graphics... just a free knockoff version of the original bridge building game; it's a waste of time.β
βThe game is good but graphics are so bad.β

The gameplay is generally praised for being fun and engaging, with smooth mechanics and enjoyable physics, though many users express frustration over intrusive ads that significantly disrupt the experience. Some players note similarities to other games, particularly "Poly Bridge," and call for improvements in mechanics and optimization.

βFluid mechanics.β
βThe graphics and game mechanics are simply amazing and offer hours of fun gameplay!β
βAwesome gameplay with amazing graphics and controls.β
βThis game is fun but it is a complete rip-off of a game called Poly Bridge in every way; the art style is ripped off, the gameplay, and the physics aren't even that accurate.β
β-1 star because the ads are too intrusive; every other restart of a level I get a minimum of 15 seconds of ads, and that, my friends, isn't gameplay, it's adsplay.β
βDull and boring gameplay, adverts constantly.β

βThis app has the best in-app music ever! πΆπβ
βAds after every attempt, can't mute the ads initially so they pause your music or podcast every time.β

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.
βI like that there is plenty to do by going back for the missions.β
βReminds 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
βVery good game because it has physics and logic. All games have a story, but this one tells us about gravity.β
βThanks 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
βJust 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
βGame 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.β

βAwful, slow, and an overall poor performance.β
βHorrible optimization; lags like mad on Snapdragon 625.β
βSlow performance.β
