Cut The Rope


Cut the Rope is proof that even a simple game can be fun. Its colorful graphics and clever physics make every level feel satisfying, playful, and charming.

How to Play

Since Cut The Rope is what you'll have to do in order to succeed, the game mainly uses swiping mechanics along with tapping in some scenarios. As such, the game is entirely controlled by the mouse.

Controls

  • (Hold) Left Mouse Button and Moved - Swipe/Cut
  • Left Mouse Button - Tap

The goal is to guide the bright candy suspended away from Om Nom to their mouth through a combination of swiping and tapping. The candy is affected by gravity and will move based on starting position and what elements are affecting it. You need to interact with the elements in such a way that the candy gets safely to Om Nom which completes the level. You can also guide the candy to collect stars scattered around the level for a higher score. You'll fail the level if the candy leaves the box or is destroyed.

Tips and Tricks

Some levels give you plenty of time while others have a ticking clock of sorts so be prepared to react. Take time to access all the elements in play and how they can potentially interact with each other. This will help you create a clear path for the candy.
