Keep The Balance is one of those deceptively simple Game Boy Color games that looks easy until you actually try it. You're stacking weird little objects—think crates, balls, even the occasional rubber duck—on a wobbly platform that tilts with every move. At first, it feels manageable, but then the game starts throwing curveballs: gusts of wind, sudden shakes, or objects that just do not want to stay put.

What I love is how it messes with your instincts. You’ll think you’ve got a perfect stack, lean back for half a second, and then—whoops—everything collapses. The physics are just janky enough to feel unpredictable without being unfair. And the chunky pixel art gives it this weird charm, like you’re playing with virtual junk from a garage sale.

It’s the kind of game you pick up for five minutes and suddenly realize you’ve been muttering at your Game Boy for an hour. If you’ve got a soft spot for old-school, hands-on challenges, this one’s a blast.
