Game overview

Dummy Speed Bridger is a fast reaction game where you drop bridge pieces to keep a running ragdoll dummy moving across gaps at speed. Timing is everything: place a plank too short or too long and the dummy tumbles into the void. It's a simple loop that gets tense as the pace and gap sizes ramp up.

This title is best suited to players who like quick one-button timing challenges.

How to play Dummy Speed Bridger

  1. Watch the dummy run toward the next gap.
  2. Hold the input to extend a bridge piece.
  3. Release it so the plank lands across the gap.
  4. Time the length so the dummy crosses cleanly.
  5. Keep the rhythm going as the speed increases.
  6. Cross as many gaps as you can before falling.
