I’m so interested in how expectation affects our experience of games. Whether it’s from over-ambitious promotional materials, peculiarly unhelpful reviews, or completely misreading the game’s description before buying it, what we’re hoping for before we start really colours how we receive the game. I was convinced that Poly Bridge 2 was a goofy physics puzzler, something somewhere between Totally Accurate Battle Simulator and Crayon Physics Deluxe. Poly Bridge 2 is nothing like that. It is – despite the apparent levity in the screenshots you see either side of these words – a proper grown up game for proper serious bridge building enthusiasts.
