Join Om Nom in Cut the Rope 2, the ultimate physics-based puzzle! Cut strings, collect stars, and feed the hungry monster. Play now to test your logic skills!

Following the resounding success of its first installment, Cut the Rope, Cut the Rope 2 expands the experience by taking the candy-loving Om Nom out of his small cardboard box and into a much more dynamic adventure. In the second part, the appearance of the Nommies – companions with unique skills such as flying, bridging, or cloning – adds more depth and variety to the physics-based puzzles.

Cut the Rope 2 Gameplay: What’s Different from Part 1?

In part 1, Om Nom was "fixed." In Cut the Rope 2, he becomes part of the puzzle itself. He can be pushed down a slope, lifted into the air by Roto, or tossed high into the air by Toss. In many levels, you have to guide Om Nom to the candy instead of just doing the opposite.

  • Environmental Physics: You have to utilize gravity, inertia, and levers. Objects such as logs, rocks, and sliders are no longer just obstacles—they often play a key role in solving each puzzle.
  • Direct Interaction: Some new friends require you to touch them directly to use their skills. Timing these interactions correctly can completely change the outcome of a level.

How to Use Nommies Effectively in Cut the Rope 2

You have to calculate the order: Cut the ropes first or activate the Nommies' skills first? In many cases, the order of actions is what determines success or failure. For example, you have to use Lick to stick out your tongue as a bridge to catch the candy, then cut the rope so the candy falls to the correct position.

When playing this game on the Space Waves system, you'll notice incredibly smooth response times, making the following controls more precise than ever:

  • Swipe: To cut the ropes and release the candy.
  • Tap: To burst bubbles or inflate airbags to push the candy.

Tips for easily getting 3 stars in Cut the Rope 2

Conquering 3 stars in the early levels is easy, but later on, you will need the following strategies:

  • Observe the overall picture before acting: Don't rush to cut the ropes. Look at the trajectory the candy will fall and where the Nommies are located.
  • Master Timing: In many levels, the timing of cutting the string is crucial. A slight delay or mistake can cause the candy to fall out of reach or the star to slip away.
  • Prioritize completing side quests: Each level includes additional "Medal" challenges (e.g., don't use Blue, or eat candy without collecting the star). Complete them to hone your puzzle-solving skills.
  • Don't forget power-ups: If you're stuck, use Magnets to attract stars or Hints from fireflies to find the correct string-cutting sequence.

FAQs

What's different about the puzzle game Cut the Rope 2 compared to the first version?

The biggest difference in Cut the Rope 2 is the appearance of the Nommies - seven companions with unique skills to help Om Nom solve puzzles. Additionally, Om Nom is no longer confined to one place but can move, roll, or fly, making the gameplay feel more dynamic and interactive.

What are the specific functions of the Nommies characters in Cut the Rope 2?

Each character in Cut the Rope 2 is a "key" to solving puzzles:

  • Roto lifts everything.
  • Lick creates bridges with his tongue.
  • Blue clones people up.
  • Toss throws objects high into the air.
  • Boo startles Om Nom, making him jump.
  • Snailbrow pushes candy along the wall.
  • Ginger burns obstacles. Combining these skills is core to the gameplay in part 2.

Are there any tips to get 3 stars in Cut the Rope 2 without using hints?

The core strategy is observation and trial-and-error. You should carefully observe the trajectory of the falling candy, calculate the inertia, and especially understand the physics of the Nommies. Sometimes, even a slight change in timing can determine whether you get the final star or not.
