About Scales

Scales is a logic puzzle about weight. You read a few comparisons, like the star is heavier than the ring, and work out which shape is heaviest or lightest.

The comparisons are not in order and some are worded the other way round, so you have to build the ranking yourself. Later rounds add a comparison you do not need, as noise.

Tips for a higher score

  • Build a line from heaviest to lightest as you read.
  • Turn every "lighter than" into "heavier than" so they read the same way.
  • Check the question: heaviest or lightest.
