Ballast: Perfectly Balanced

Pack your barge. Read the weather. Make the crossing. Ballast is a puzzle game about cargo, balance and a river full of surprises. Place each load, inspect the forecast, then commit to your plan and watch clear, repeatable rules play out. If a crossing goes wrong, pause at the mistake, understand what happened and try a different arrangement. Explore 100 handcrafted crossings across five chapters. Harness the wind with empty cartons, guide living cargo, work the quays, navigate changing tides and power a floating workshop. Cargo placement, shelter, water and electricity become parts of the same puzzle. Play the complete first chapter free: 20 crossings, yours to replay. A single in-app purchase unlocks chapters 2–5 and the remaining 80 crossings. No subscription. • Plan around a visible weather forecast • Preview how your current packing will respond • Learn from a freeze at the moment…
