Balance It

Controls

Mouse on a computer, touch on a phone or tablet. Some games also take the arrow keys or the letter keys, and the game will say so when it starts.

Each level hands you a small toolkit — dynamite to clear a blocked path, rope to bridge a gap, a propeller to carry something through the air — and an object that needs to get from one side of the screen to the other. Physics decides whether your placement actually works, so a rope tied at the wrong angle or a propeller aimed a few degrees off sends things the wrong way. It rewards testing an idea and adjusting rather than solving the whole level in your head first.
