About the game
Night Bridge is a calm logic puzzle based on an old riddle. A group of animals waits by a wobbly rope bridge in the dark, and there is only one lantern. The bridge holds two at a time, a pair always walks at the slower animal's pace, and nobody steps on the planks without the light, so someone has to carry it back every trip. The lantern's oil is the only clock: each crossing burns as many minutes as the slowest walker needs.
The obvious plan is to let the quick rabbit escort everyone, but that often wastes oil. The secret is sending the two slowest animals together so their long walks overlap, though on some levels that trick costs more, so you have to count. Thirty levels add more animals and, later, a sturdy bridge that holds three. Undo and a hint are always there if you get stuck.
