Bridge Constructor Portal

Having said that, however, the game’s 60 levels will likely take you many hours to complete, and is a thoroughly fun experience well worth the $14.99 price tag. As a certain song and this section title goes, it’s hard to overstate my satisfaction. This game is sure to please almost everyone in its target audience and I highly recommend it.

Bridge Constructor Portal is a fantastically challenging puzzle game that is dressed in $10 looks. You will not be awestruck by anything the game does, but the challenge will have you wanting more, the humor will keep you smiling, and the silly horn at the end of the level will be enough to know you "did it."

It might not be as funny as Portal but the puzzles are almost as inventive, in this contrived but entertaining crossover.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Bridge Constructor Portal as a rich, challenging puzzler with plenty of brain-twisters in store across its 60 levels. The pacing and methodical iteration it encourages meant it only ever taxed my mind, not my nerves. As a Portal fan’s nostalgia piece, it’s really not much better than a kitschy, amusement park gift shop recreation of the world many of us know and love – but the little nods serve well enough to enhance an already enjoyable puzzle game.

The Bridge Constructor series gets a lot out of being combined with Portal, resulting in a quirky and engaging new twist on this physics-based puzzler. It could have gone further, whether upping the challenge you can aim for or actually giving you the portals to play with, but what’s here is pleasingly inventive and has more than few tricky brain teasers.

We’re never getting another true Portal sequel. The series’ creators and writers have all moved on, and Valve no longer seems particularly interested in making the kind of puzzle-driven, story-heavy games they were once lauded for. Ah, but Aperture Laboratories haven’t shut their doors just yet – unexpected crossover Bridge Constructor Portal is here to fill your holidays with physics-based fun!

Solve dozens of fun physics puzzles by building bridges, using portals, and even employing a few companion cubes.

It's always cool when two video game franchises come together to make an interesting crossover. Bridge Constructor Portal is a fantastic blend of Bridge Constructor gameplay with Portal elements so let's head to the test chambers.

A cool, well-executed Portal spin-off/mash-up, Bridge Constructor Portal takes one of Valve's dormant franchises and neatly transposes it into an appealing and enjoyable puzzle game. Next up, Bridge Constructor Half-Life? Play it. For science.

Even if the game doesn’t bring anything wholly new to the table for Portal fans and it leans on some filler toward the end, on the whole, I had a darn good time with this spin-off.
