Akan Gold-Weight Balance

Measure the gold dust exactly, in the fewest weighings.

About this game

A brass pan balance, a handful of cast weights and a customer's order. Put weights on both pans, even weigh the bag itself, and serve each order in as few weighings as you can. Hints that teach, a Daily Order and Watch and Learn. Portrait or landscape.

How to play

  1. Fill the bag with exactly the amount on the order slip.
  2. Drag weights onto the pans, or tap a weight to send it to a pan.
  3. The dust poured is what the right pan weighs minus the left.
  4. From market day three the bag itself can sit on a pan.
  5. Tap the lamp for a hint: where to look, then why it works.
