About

About Critter Scale.

Critter Scale is a relaxed but tricky balancing game for iPhone. Every critter that drops in has to go left or right onto a plank balanced on a spike. Keep the board level to grow your multiplier all the way to ×3, or let a bad critter melt on the spike, at the cost of water rising between the piles. Nibblers eat what they land on, Sippers drink the water back up, and Swells keep on growing, so every run plays out differently. Unlock golden critters, new planks, and new skies with the optional Supporter Pack, and chase your best score on the Game Center leaderboard.

FAQ

Critter Scale questions.

How do you play Critter Scale?

Swipe or tap left or right to send each falling critter onto that pile. Keep the plank level to grow your multiplier, and don't let the water spill over the lower pile.

What happens if I don't choose a side?

The critter falls onto the centre spike and melts. That's a handy way to skip a bad critter, but it adds water to the plank.

What do the special critters do?

Nibblers shrink the critter they land on, Sippers drink water back off the plank, and Swells keep growing after they land until they're heavier than anything else.

Is Critter Scale free?

Yes. The game is free with ads. You can remove ads with a one-time purchase, or get the Supporter Pack, which unlocks every cosmetic look and also removes ads.

Do cosmetics make the game easier?

No. Supporter looks are purely visual and never change scoring, balance, or the leaderboard.

Do I need an account?

No. Scores, settings, and unlocked looks are saved on your device. Leaderboards use your existing Game Center profile if you're signed in.
