About Cut the Rope

Cut the Rope is a physics puzzle with one clear goal: get the candy to Om Nom, the adorable little creature waiting for it. Each level is a small gravity-based challenge built around making that delivery.

The controls are simple swipes and taps. The puzzles themselves are driven by physics, so solving a level means thinking about how the candy will move once you act, and then acting at the right moment.

There is more to open up as you go. You unlock new seasons and new elements along the way, so the puzzles do not stay the same for long. The game is designed for portrait screens, and its charming look makes it an easy one to pick up.

Tips and tricks
