About the game

Float & Sink is a gravity logic puzzle based on Dosun-Fuwari. The board is divided into rooms by thick lines, with a few solid stones scattered around. Every room must hold exactly one red balloon and one iron ball. Balloons float, so each balloon needs something directly above it: the top of the board, a stone, or another balloon stacked under it. Balls sink, so each ball needs the bottom of the board, a stone, or another ball directly beneath it. Rooms that sit on top of each other start to depend on one another, and that is where the real deductions live.

The twist is a gravity preview. Place a balloon where nothing holds it and it wobbles while a faint copy drifts upward with a red arrow; a loose ball does the same downward. The rule becomes something you watch rather than something you remember. Thirty puzzles grow from tiny 4x4 boards to 8x8 buildings full of stacked rooms, each with exactly one answer. Dots mark cells you know are empty, and hints fix a mistake or place one piece.
