NumberGames brings you two original logic puzzle games in one app. No timers, no pressure: just you and the puzzle. BALANCE The beam is out of balance because of the bolted weights. Hang the right weights on the hooks: each one counts value times distance from the pivot. Bring the needle back to zero and find perfect balance. Solve it in your head with a bit of arithmetic, or by eye, watching the beam tilt in real time. Expert levels add broken hooks, useless weights and the mandatory golden weight. CONDUIT A number leaves the source and must reach the exit with the right value. Place tiles that add, subtract, multiply or divide, rotate their arrows and build the path. Start the flow and watch the number travel through your circuit. Expert levels add mod and square tiles for real brain teasers. FEATURES - Hundreds of levels for each game, generated with increasing difficulty - Three separate modes: Easy, Normal and Expert, each with its own progress - Game Center leaderboards: compare your best level with players worldwide - Interactive tutorials with animated examples - Stuck? Watch a short ad to get a hint that always leads to the solution - Workshop-style visuals, sound effects and haptic feedback - Free to play Perfect for a quick brain workout on the go or a long puzzle session on the couch.
