Clunky and unbalanced
Intro
In the Bridge Constructor games you use wooden planks, steel girders, cables, etc. to build... bridges. This TWD version spices things up a little by having you kill zombies.

Intro
In the Bridge Constructor games you use wooden planks, steel girders, cables, etc. to build... bridges. This TWD version spices things up a little by having you kill zombies.
The Good
- Squashing zombies with big falling things is fun.
- Half of the time it's fun to figure out the puzzle.
The Bad
- The other half of the time you have no idea what to do or it is overly tedious.
- You can't access the settings menu during a level (the sound is pretty loud by default).
- Clunky controls. Seriously guys, you're supposed to speed up dialogue with Space, not with Enter.
- The dialogue is annoying, especially Eugene's.
- The balance is bizarre. One level i had to look up the solution on Youtube, the next i solved using only 3200 of the 4000 resources allowed to gain a medal. Huh?
The Ugly
In the building mode the game does not indicate weak points in red, it only does that when you hit play. You'd think they would have changed this after making a bunch of these games. Especially larger bridges are a pain to construct as a consequence.
Conclusion
It's fun for an hour or so, but i wouldn't recommend actually spending money on this.
