Mass Attack - Today's Time Waster

It's Time Wasters like these that make wasting time really worth it. Mass Attack has a simple concept: you are presented with a scale that has weights on one side. You then create up to three new weights that you can drop on either side, with the goal of getting both sides to balance.As you go up in difficulty level, the smaller the margin of error becomes. The real trick is eyeballing the approximate weight of the, um, weights. Since their "weight" is determined by volume, it's hard to make a weight twice as heavy since it is not going to look twice as big. But with a little bit of practice it gets easier - and nothing feels quite as good as getting perfect balance on the first try.
If this is the kind of game that tickles your fancy, consider yourself warned - it is quite addictive.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
