    The Bridge feels right on the Switch hardware, specifically in handheld mode. The atmospheric music, mind-boggling physics mechanics and abstract visual style all amalgamate together to produce one of the best Puzzle games currently available on the platform. With the games' improbable extra challenges and post-game levels, It's sure to keep you going back for quite some time. Providing you don't go insane first.

    The Bridge is a solid puzzle game that encourages you to look at the world from a new perspective. Though the game was easily completed in a couple of sittings, the difficulty increase and length felt right. A sequel would be welcome.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. I'm really angry with the maker of this game. What's the most important thing for a good puzzle game? The rules are clear and understandable. This game changes its rules mid-game. You died many times in the earlier levels by getting sucket into the vortex? Guess what, later the vortex will not kill you, but you need to get sucked into it to progress. You turn the world with L and R and move with the d-pad. Guess again. Later the control scheme does not apply anymore, now your character moves on its own. Objects in the foreground seem to be solid right? Wrong. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't and you can only know by trying. The challenges are unfair because the rules keep secretly changing. Maybe for that reason, the puzzles are not satisfying either, it is lots of trial and error and thinking will not help much. The result: the game is just not fun. Best avoid it.… Full Review »

There are a lot of better games with better design, music and story. This is just not great. The controls are super slow and are a pain. The funny thing is that the puzzles are not rewarding in any way so there is no reason to keep coming back and playing it.

    My suggestion, there are better puzzlers out there. Period.    … Full Review »
