Design a bridge and then destroy it. Powered by a sophisticated physics engine, BridgeBasher realistically simulates your bridge reacting to destructive forces in real-time. Create bridges in seconds through the bridge editor. If you make a mistake, simply tap the Undo button. Zoom in and out by pinching the screen and pan the view using a two finger drag.

BridgeBasher lets you destroy your bridge in a variety of ways: - Ball Stack: Stack gigantic balls onto your bridge until it collapses so that you can quickly determine how much weight your bridge can support. - Word Test: Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will destroy your bridge. The word test lets you sit back and watch as a series of weighty word-trains cross over your bridge. The word-trains become increasingly heavier, so only the strongest bridges will survive.

- Joint Weights: The joint weights test gives you the opportunity to apply destructive forces with pinpoint accuracy. Hang them from your bridge's joints and see how many joint weights it takes to bring your bridge down. While testing, you can see how the strain is distributed across your bridge. Areas that are under immense strain are colored bright red, while other areas are colored green. This allows you to find and fix problem areas in your bridge.

Show your friends how awesome your bridge is or laugh at your dumb your friends' bridges are. BridgeBasher gives you the option to easily e-mail your bridge to whomever you wish.

It has potential if bug fixes are made

Possibly not impossible...
     
by Javamama7 · June 5, 2013

So I've been playing this game for a while now and I have created a bridge that can withstand the impossibly heavy. However when impossibly heavy got to the end, the game crashed. So yes they did make it "impossible."

NEEDS UPDATE
     
by cstrjer · March 22, 2018

Please update this app to work with iOS 11

Okay

Great game, but a bit buggy. It crashes often, and when I try to save a design, no text appears and I can't enter in the name. The keyboard looks old and clunky, and it doesn't orient to my phone. Because of this, it covers the save button and the text bar, so I'm unable to save.

Endless fun

I have had this game several months and I keep coming back to it. The color indicating stress is helpfull
