Cut the Rope

Game Rules:

1. Feed Om Nom: Your primary objective is to get the piece of candy into the mouth of the little green creature, Om Nom. The candy is usually suspended by one or more ropes.
2. Cut the Ropes: Carefully plan which ropes to cut and in what order. Cutting a rope will cause the candy to swing or drop based on physics.
3. Collect Stars (Optional but recommended): Throughout each level, there are three gold stars. Try to have the candy touch these stars before it reaches Om Nom. Collecting stars unlocks new levels and boxes.
4. Utilize Objects: Use various objects in the environment to your advantage. Bubbles make the candy float up, air cushions blow the candy in a certain direction, and spiders try to steal the candy if it's on a rope for too long.
5. Avoid Obstacles: Keep the candy away from spikes, electricity, and the edges of the screen. If the candy falls off-screen or gets destroyed, you'll need to restart the level.

Controls:

1. Cut Rope: Click and drag (or swipe) across a rope to cut it.
2. Pop Bubble: Click (or tap) on a bubble that contains the candy to pop it.
3. Use Air Cushion: Click (or tap) on an air cushion to squeeze it and release a puff of air.

FAQ:

1. Q: I'm stuck on a level! What should I do?



Sometimes you need to cut ropes quickly in succession, or use momentum to swing the candy. Don't be afraid to experiment! Also, pay attention to the timing of moving obstacles or spiders.

2. Q: What happens if a spider gets the candy?



If a spider reaches the candy before Om Nom does, you fail the level and must try again. Cut the rope the spider is crawling on to drop the candy and escape!

3. Q: Do I need to collect all three stars to pass a level?



No, you only need to feed the candy to Om Nom to pass. However, you need a certain number of stars to unlock the next set of levels (the next box).
