  • Level 2: There are more solid rocks, including a bigger rock weighing twice as much.
  • Level 3: There are even more solid rocks, and some rocks are initially not on the scale.

If two players are utilized for this microgame, the player that breaks more units of weight receives an effort point upon success. If both players each break the same amount of weight, no effort points are awarded.
