Reception

Poly Bridge 2 received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[7]

Russell Archey of Gaming Nexus rated the game 8.5 out of 10. He felt the game was enjoyable and relaxing, and brought him a lot of happiness every time the bridge he built broke and drivers drove into the water.[9]

Chris O'Connor of Impulse Gamer gave the game an overall 3.6 stars out of 5. He praised the game for being good fun at a pretty reasonable price, but criticised it for not having enough stages.[10]

John Walker of Rock, Paper, Shotgun commented the game is "far more like an expansion pack than a whole new game", and thought it difficult to enjoy if creating on one's own.[5]
