You drag your finger around to “draw" where your bridge components go, move things around by tapping and holding, and of course you can zoom in to place construction materials more precisely.

The controls work well, and are just as intuitive as other bridge building games on the App Store. There’s even switches, companion cubes, switches that need to be held down with companion cubes, and practically every other thing from Portal. Much like Portal proper, it won’t take long before you’re solving puzzles that involve using gravity to pick up speed and fall through portals, launching yourself, and tons of other similar mechanics. As if Bridge Constructor wasn’t difficult enough, Bridge Constructor Portal adds all sorts of Portal-y elements into the mix. I hope you paid attention in physics class when you built bridges out of toothpicks, as these games get tricky. Just like Bridge Constructor, you do this using a variety of building tools to build bridges from a select few attachment points in ever level, err, test chamber. You play the role of Chief Custodian for the Aperture Science Vehicular Hurdling Initiative, or, in other words, you’ll be building bridges to get the little black silhouette guys featured in the the Portal trailer and their fork lifts from one side of the screen to the other. The problem is, Bridge Constructor Portal isn’t a Portal game as much as it’s a Portal-themed version of Bridge Constructor ($1.99). A new Portal game! It’s what I’ve been wanting for years.

When I was watching the progress indicator of the original app install, I couldn’t have possibly been more excited. I’ve since been playing through the game for the last week or so, and I really can’t believe how torn I am on this whole thing. So, when we got emailed the announcement of Bridge Constructor Portal ($4.99), to say I did a double-take was an understatement. Portal 2 was released in 2011 and built upon the groundwork laid in the original, with loads more world-building and a few new mechanics.Īs anyone who follows Valve IP knows, the suggestion of a Half-Life 3 or a Portal 3 getting released has stopped being a realistic thing to expect and has basically just become a meme. If you haven’t played Portal, please, please do. It would’ve been a great puzzle game by itself, but the addition of the ever-present AI frenemy GLaDOS elevates the entire experience to an entirely new level.

The mechanic that powers Portal, if you somehow haven’t played it by now, involves using a portal gun to fire blue and orange portals around a series of “test chambers." When you go in a blue portal, you come out of an orange portal and vice versa.
