What’s It About?
First choose which level pack you want to play (including the size of the game board), and a board will appear. Connect the colored dots by swiping your finger to make a pipe, but don't cross other colors' pipes or dots unless there are white lines to denote a bridge. Bridges can be crossed by different colors at the same time. Play a timed board, a larger board, more colors, or more difficult configurations to increase the difficulty. After a few free hints, more hints require in-app purchases.
Is It Any Good?
FLOW FREE: BRIDGES is an ideal game for kids who tend to get frustrated with puzzle games that ramp up in difficulty quickly, or where there are no options. The game starts off quite easy and the level of difficulty progresses steadily but not rapidly. The bridges definitely make this version easier than the original Flow Free app. Still, if kids find new levels too difficult, they can change the size of the board, ask for hints, or go back and play an easier board. This app is simply a fun, colorful, and gentle brain workout.

This game may be too easy for some kids until they reach a certain level. Challenge them to play the lower levels in Time Trial mode for an extra mental workout.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
