What is it about?
Bongo Balance teaches players the fundamentals of balancing equations by having them settle feuds between tribal monkey clans. Players are shown an "equation" of fruit clusters, with one monkey tribe representing the left of the equation and the other tribe representing the right side. Players add and subtract clusters of fruit on each side to bring the amount of fruit into balance, just like with atoms in a chemical equation.
