Balance

Place nine numbers. Match every sum. Find the perfect balance.

How to play Balance

Nine numbers. Find the balance.

Example

Place 3 to make 9. A full line turns green with a check when its total matches.

Use each number from 1 to 9 exactly once.
Make each row and column add up to the total beside it. When all three cells are filled, a matching total turns green with a check; a wrong total turns red with an X.
Choose a number, then a cell, or drag to place it. Moving onto another number swaps the tiles. Each placement, swap, or removal counts as one move.
Locked numbers stay put. A hint places and locks one correct tile, adding one hint and one move.
