The Fulcrum

The Fulcrum is a physics-based puzzle game about balance. Place weighted stones on a beam and keep it level — but position matters as much as weight. A heavy stone near the center barely tips the scales. That same stone at the edge? Leverage changes everything.

GAMEPLAY Each puzzle gives you a set of numbered stones. Place them on the beam, then watch physics take over. Hold the balance for 3 seconds and you win. Fail to balance, and the beam tips — try again with a new strategy.

As you progress, the puzzles grow richer: • Slot Mode — stones snap to fixed positions, demanding precise placement • Free Physics Mode — stones drop with gravity and can collide and merge mid-fall • Balloon Stones — negative-value stones float upward, adding upward lift to counter heavy sides • Pivot Shifting — the fulcrum moves mid-simulation on advanced levels, forcing you to adapt • Distractor Stones — not every stone belongs in the solution; figure out which ones to use

150 HANDCRAFTED LEVELS From a gentle introduction to beam physics, to complex multi-stone arrangements with shifting pivots and balloon counters — every level is hand-designed with a specific solution and escalating challenge.
