Objectives of The Bridge to Nowhere
1. Move the handcar
To move the handcar hold down the button as Arthur pushes the bar down and release as he raises it. Not releasing in time will cause you to lose speed.
When you pass the ladder leading to the bottom level of the bridge then you'll stop the handcar.
2. Get the first (second) dynamite crate / Lower the crate down the side of the bridge
Grab the first crate of dynamite off the handcar, walk with it to the railing just to the right of the ladder and lower the crate down to John. Then return to the handcar and do the same with the second crate of dynamite.
4. Pick up some dynamite / Plant dynamite on the pillars
If you want to get the gold medal then you have 1 minute and 35 seconds to plant the dynamite on three pillars. Take some dynamite from the crate and plant it on the nearest pillar. Go back for another bundle of dynamite and plant it on the pillar that is a little further away. Come back for another bundle of dynamite again and place it on the pillar that is furthest away.
5. Return to the handcar / Flee the oncoming train
Run back to the ladder, climb back to the top of the bridge and run to the handcar. As soon as you're near it, get on it and press the button at the right time to make the car go as fast as possible. If you want to get the gold medal, it can take no more than 19 seconds to drive.
You and John will automatically jump off the handcar once it will be possible.
After completing The Bridge to Nowhere you will get or will be able to get My Last Boy (1 of 2).
