About Keep the Balance

Keep the Balance! is a fast-paced puzzle game requiring basic math skills.

An evil joker has invaded our world and tries to disturb The Magic Scales that balance our world, in order to unleash the forces of Chaos. Each level has a monkey standing on top of the scales. You have to keep the equilibrium by launching objects, passing below on a conveyor, onto the scales. All locations have unique sets of objects to which weight, shown as a number, has been assigned. As the objects appear from both sides of the screen at the same time, you move the cursor below an object and press a key to launch it. At the top of each scale, the current weight is shown. If there is a big gap in weight, the monkey will slowly slide to the heaviest side.

When it falls down, the game is over...

This a sad non recommendation for me. When I was growing up I used to use my dads computer everyday to play this, I absolutely loved it growing up, but not anymore. It doesn't run well on a new computer but I guess it makes sense with the age of the game. Do not spend your money on this.

Built around a colorful and whimsical presentation, it challenges players to maintain equilibrium on a giant scale while dealing with an ever-growing collection of unusual items and unexpected disruptions. The heart of the game revolves around a balance scale that must be kept stable as various objects arrive from both sides. Every item possesses a specific weight, requiring players to think carefully before deciding where it should be placed. Success depends on maintaining a delicate equilibrium while continuously adapting to new situations. The game's mechanics are easy to understand, making it accessible to newcomers, yet the increasing speed and complexity of later stages provide enough challenge to keep puzzle enthusiasts invested. What begins as a simple…

-If you have a multi-monitor setup, you will either have to unplug your extra monitors or disable them using Windows+P. -The in-game music doesn't seem to be functional. -For some reason you have to use Right-Shift to type certain capital letters in the name entry. I'm probably forgetting some things but those are the main issues of this game that stick out to me.
