Balance is a free puzzle game for iPhone that revolves around the concept of electricity and power grids. The objective of the game is to ensure that there are no blackouts, that the power grids are functioning properly, and that the right amount of power is always being produced.

The game presents players with various challenges that they may not have considered before. For instance, did you know that the amount of power produced changes throughout the day and night to match our usage? Or that there is a limit to how much power can be transmitted through a single power line without overloading it? Additionally, an effectively designed power grid can have any one line disconnected without causing blackouts.

Despite the complex subject matter, Balance does not require any prior knowledge about electricity or power grids. It is accessible to all players, allowing them to enjoy the game without feeling overwhelmed.

Developed by Statnett, the system operator in the Norwegian energy system, Balance is based on real challenges that they face on a daily basis. This adds an element of authenticity to the game, making it an interesting and educational experience for players.
