Back in the day, there were a couple of games that I remember playing often, and one of them was bridge-building simulators. Having to put together a bridge that can withstand the weight of whatever needs to be crossed was a bunch of fun, and Poly Bridge 3 takes it to a whole new level. With an open-world campaign, tons of different tools, and user-generated content/mods, this takes it to a whole new level. And with the most recent update, it should be significantly more playable on the Steam Deck.

In the new 1.5.0 update released a couple of days ago, the team has officially added Gamepad support for the Steam Deck! It should be perfectly playable with a controller now, and it includes new features you can customize in the options and snap-to-node functionality to ensure you can easily build the bridges you need to.

The gamepad support is the big highlight of this update, which is massive for anyone playing on Steam Deck or with a controller, but there are a couple of other additions. There is a new Curated Gallery, which consists of replays that are hand-picked by the developers to show appropriate replays to those who want to see them. There are also a lot of small bug fixes and polishing with this update, but no specifics were given in this area.

You can check out the changelog via their Steam Community Post.

Poly Bridge 3 can be purchased on Steam for $19.99 and is rated Steam Deck Verified.
