Ikl can build a bridge…
Yep, it’s true. What’s more… so can everyone else! I came across this fun bridge building simulator whilst at work today. You can either go with a given design and modify it, or build something from scratch. Once you’ve built your bridge, you test it by running a lorry over it! Great fun!!!
If the members are red, that denotes varying levels of compression; if they’re blue the members are in tension. If any members are curved then they’ve failed.
The best bit is to try and design for a catastrophic failure of the members so the lorry ends up in the river 
Great fun. The program is a 3.3Mb download but well worth it…

have a look at http://www.armadillorun.com/demo/
its described as
“Armadillo Run is a physics-based puzzle game. You have to build structures with the purpose of getting an armadillo to a certain point in space. There is a selection of building materials, each with different properties, which can be combined to form almost anything. The realistic physics simulation gives you the freedom to solve each level in many different ways.”
