Hemisphere is a free arcade game you can play right here in your browser. It leans on physics, so expect a steady difficulty curve. Everything runs client-side, so it starts fast even on a modest connection.

About Hemisphere

Train both brain hemispheres with the game Hemisphere. The left side of the brain is focused on logical tasks and is responsible for controlling the right side of the body. On the other hand, the right hemisphere is focused on creativity and coordinates the left side of the body. Hemisphere is a simple but not easy game in which you control two rings with both hands. That way you will use both sides of the brain and keep them in balance. Sounds easy? Let's try!

How to play Hemisphere
