A stunning, beautiful world awaits as you take on the challenge of bridging the chasm. Can you solve the puzzles and avert disaster?
Set in the picturesque surroundings of sparse deserts and dense forests it is your task to strategically design and construct an engineering masterpiece. Watch in eager anticipation as unsuspecting motorists, heavy freight trains and tourist riverboats approach. Will your solution stand up to the test or will tons of mangled steel be sent plummeting into the river below?
Bridge It shows off the very latest in cinematic gaming. Based on Chronic Logic's award winning Bridge Construction Set (Pontifex II) and using the Auran Jet 3D engine running on NVIDIA's latest GeForceFX hardware it offers a host of real time effects that surpass many pre-rendered scenes.
From the FAQ: Why does Bridge It only run on NVIDIA video cards? Bridge It is a collaboration of three companies - NVIDIA, Auran and Chronic Logic. As much fun as Bridge It is to play, it was also developed as a great technology showcase for NVIDIA and Auran. Bridge It was designed to utilize NVIDIA hardware and the Auran Jet software to achieve its outstanding visual quality. We would like Bridge It to work on all cards (obviously), but Bridge It was specifically designed as graphics demo to show off NVIDIA graphics cards.
