Stick Bridge Hero

Goal of the game

In Stick Bridge Hero you play with your hand in front of the camera. Your hero stands on a pillar. make a FIST ✊ and HOLD to grow a stick upward, then LET GO to drop it across the gap. If it lands on the next pillar the hero runs across and you score — hit the glowing red centre for a PERFECT bonus.

Too short or too long and the hero falls (lose a life). A grumpy crow sometimes sits on a pillar: grab it to scare it off. Power-ups float above the gaps — run through them: Shield, Double Points and Slow-Mo.
