App Name: Bridge Constructor/Cost: $ 1.99
Bridge Constructor lets players build increasingly challenging bridges over deep valleys, canals
and rivers. Stress tests reveal whether the bridge kids build can withstand continual use from cars,
trucks, and more recently, super-heavy tank trucks. Players can choose from among a range of bridge-
building materials such as wood, steel, cables or concrete pillars ( 混凝土柱 ). Each bridge also has
a budget, and there are numerous ways to successfully complete each challenge.
App Name: Pyramids 3D/Cost: $ 13.99
The interface ( 界面 ) allows users to fl y around the plateau where the pyramids and the Sphinx
are located at Giza near Cairo. Interactive, three-dimensional maps let students wander around the
labyrinthine ( 迷宫般的 ) tombs and passageways. Users can examine wall paintings in detail, or view
royal statues and objects with a 360-degree feature. To help explain the world of the ancient Egyptians,
the app offers an accompanying interactive book, specially written by world-renowned Egyptologist
Zahi Hawass.
