Gameplay
Gameplay
• Illustration — A screenshot from the game. The objective of Poly Bridge 2 is to build a bridge that can take vehicles from place A to place B with materials provided within a limited budget. In addition to the materials that were already featured in Poly Bridge, a new material, the spring, is introduced. The game offers eight different worlds which consist of 16 levels each, along with six "challenge worlds" consisting of harder versions of the levels contained in the first six worlds, adding up to a total of 224 levels. The addition of a feature similar to the Steam Workshop allows players to make and upload their own levels for other players to enjoy. This workshop service is hosted on Dry Cactus's servers, making the game compatible with other launchers such as the Epic Games Store, whereas Poly Bridge 's workshop was hosted on the Steam Workshop and was thus restricted to the Steam launcher.
