Move and slice fraction blocks between two pans until the scale sits perfectly level.
Was this fun?
How to play
A balance has fraction blocks on each pan and spares in a tray. Move blocks between pans and cut them into smaller fractions until both sides weigh exactly the same. The puzzle is solved the instant the two pans are balanced.
Add, remove and slice blocks so the left and right totals match.
Cutting a block splits it into equal fractional parts you can redistribute.
Fewer cuts and faster solves score higher.
An undo step lets you walk back a move if it does not help.
Controls
Desktop: click a block to select it, then click a pan or the cut control to act.
Phone & tablet: tap a block to pick it up, then tap a pan or the slice control.
Game modes
Daily seeded balance or Practice with adjustable difficulty.
Tips & strategy
Convert both pans to a common denominator in your head before you start cutting.
Slice only when you must, every unnecessary cut costs points.
Aim to make the smaller pan heavier by adding the exact missing fraction rather than rebuilding both sides.
