Bridge breaker
Draw the road, snap supports into its joints, then let an increasingly unreasonable sequence of trucks question your engineering.
- 1Build the roadConnect the two yellow anchors.
- 2Add supportsBrace road joints with triangles.
- 3Run the trucksSee where the bridge gives way.
0 efficiency points
Step 1: draw a road from one yellow anchor to the other.
Draw the dark road first, then switch to supports and snap braces into its joints. Trucks only follow the road, so supports can cross around it. Connected triangles strengthen the local span. Once testing starts, trucks arrive automatically and keep getting heavier. Use less material to earn more efficiency points before the bridge gives way.
Built to be played with. These are small prototypes with room to grow.
