Without electricity there is chaos. Balance is a free puzzle game about electricity and power grids. Your goal is to make sure there are no blackouts, that the power grids are functional, and that you always produce the right amount of power. The game offers many challenges you probably never thought about: - Did you know that the amount of power produced is changed all day and night to match the amount we use? - Did you know that there is a limit on how much power you can transmit through a single power line without it getting overloaded? - Did you know that an well-built power grid could have any one line disconnected without causing blackouts? You do not need any knowledge about electricity or power grids in order to enjoy this game. Balance is developed by Statnett, the system operator in the Norwegian energy system, and is based on real challenges they work with every day.
Questionable privacy behavior
Immediately on launch, the game accessed my clipboard. It then proceeded to tell me some of the ways my data was going to be analyzed including by Facebook. I guess I should be grateful it at least told me up front, but that’s unnecessary. Especially accessing the clipboard.
Too many ads, can’t pay to remove the
:(
I was excited to play but…
I played the first two levels and instantly got a 30 second unskippable ad. No thank you, NEXT. Terrible game.
Seems decent
The game seems decent, but it pasted my clipboard right when I loaded the game, which is a bit odd.
To those that think advertisements are annoying (they are)
Just turn off wi fi. Simple.
Unskippable ads
Not a terrible game, kinda fun. Sadly, it forces you to watch ads, a LOT, and there is NO WAY to stop the ads, no purchase to remove them. Sigh.
Super sketchy app
Constantly tries to reinstall itself after I delete it. Do not download!
Fixed some game breaking bugs, and added support for new iPhone screens.
