  • A Somewhat Bland 3rd Entry

    Although Cut the Rope 3 sticks true to the original Cut the Rope formula, there are some major problems with it. I have every achievement in the game currently, so here are my major problems with the game that I think should be addressed.

    Despite there being 4 different worlds, every level in the game feels the same, besides a few tricky levels at random points. Adding on to that point, the game barely has any difficulty curve, a level near the start of the game feels similar in difficulty to a level near the end of the game. Despite the number of Nommies collected going up, it doesn’t feel like I’m making any true progress through the game, besides the occasional introduction of mechanics from the start to the middle of the game. If someone didn’t care about getting 3 stars in each level, the levels are all stupidly easy to beat. Putting all of the bad aside, the game still has some interesting puzzles when going for 3 star completion and I liked the design of some of the Nommies.

    Overall, I would suggest adding more levels with a higher difficulty near the end of the game, or potentially adding some sort of section or area just for harder levels.
  • Finished game/achievments

    I've really enjoyed playing Cut the Rope again like I used to on my iPhone many many years ago. The game is fun, mainly "easy" but a few levels require a little more thought. I also like the 3D decor and the depth compared to a regular 2D screen.

    However I'm not sure why there is a score (in addition to stars) as it not visible other than once a level is completed. I don't understand why there a Nommies either to collect: it doesn't bring anything to the gameplay.

    Game duration is quite good, especially for a 'free' game in Apple Arcade.

    Hopefully in the future we could see a true "Cut the Rope 3D" instead of an improved version of the existing 2D version.
    A game where the character could evolve in 3D-space (and might require us to either rotate the environment or walk around it while wearing AVP).
  • Perfect Sequel

    I was looking at Apple Arcade for some new games a while back and came across this and thought about the original from years ago. Decided to give it a try and I enjoyed all of it. In the past, I thought there were some levels that were ruthlessly difficult to the point where you couldn’t get 3 stars without a walkthrough showing you everything. This sequel is accessible to anyone, which isn’t to say that all of these puzzles are interesting. I appreciate the new whip mechanic that is in most of the levels which allows you to create some unexpected results. (Just be careful because the cog whip hook that pulls you in has a very slim chance to lock you in place, but is very uncommon, and worst comes to worst you can restart the level which doesn’t take very long). Overall, nothing bad to say. I was a bit disheartened with its length, but seeing as they still regularly update it (at first the cap was 360, then ~432, now it’s 531, and I anticipate it expanding a bit more in the near future). That being my only real complaint they’re already addressing, 5 stars. If you have the Apple Arcade already, then there’s no reason NOT to get this.
  • Solid gameplay, some annoyances

    Classic cut the rope, if you've played the others you know what to expect. Somewhat bland level design but overall serviceable gameplay.

    The HUGE annoyance is every 4 levels you have to watch the same unskippable 15 second cutscene, then get booted out to the main menu, press play, watch another 10 second unskippable cutscene and then you can play again. AND THEY'RE ALL THE SAME. Ridiculously annoying to the point I don't plan on finishing this game. Who thought these were a good idea???
  • Good, not great

    So I like that I could get 3 stars on all levels, but, 1) too many kid cute animations…some games used to let you skip animations by tapping on them, give us a way to go forward or speed up or delete slow silly, repetitive animations that add nothing to the game. 2) you supposedly added 18 levels but I can find no way to get to them, also there is a random factor, too random, don’t know what will be next and can be a level I’ve already completed, needs more organization to it.
  • Not fun or funny at all…

    Fine, tell me you LOVE it. But I don’t. It is not my thing. Look, I know everybody loves it, and including my brother but not including me. Because I hate it. I like moving around characters and making stories. Not doing anything like this game. I hate doing puzzles and trying to get specific items and finding secrets. So I think I gave you all my information about how I think about this game. And P.S I am a kid who is 9 years old.😡👋🤨😝😤🙄🥱🤐
  • Awesome

    This is a really cute game! I think the little ones would just love 💕 it! I know I do.
    You get tired of the typical running or shoot ‘em up games. Terrific for coordination and timing. The critters are adorable. The artwork is quite attractive. Download this sweet little game.
  • Quite sad to see what’s become of Cut the Rope…

    I’ve been playing this series since the very beginning, and loved it for its creativity and challenging puzzles. Very little of that can be seen here. The best part of the game is probably the nommies designs, the levels are way too short and easy and all feel about the same. The game just feels very small and repetitive and the cutscenes are incredibly annoying. If you like cut the rope to replay the original and experiments / time travel, or even cut the rope 2 is a better experience than this.
  • Need more!

    Love the game and your hard work to make it happen! Just wondering whe I can expect the update for more levels? You made the levels a little too easy and and was done in 8hours:(
    I need more levels and a little more challenge please and thank you:)
    Thanks to the whole team behind this amazing sequel!!
  • Amount of content

    I would rate this game 5 stars its very fun and the art style is good but you could easily complete this game in 1 or 2 days like me, and only a few levels I had some difficulty. The amount of levels is my main issue I know there are 120 levels that may sound like a lot but the levels don’t take that long to beat.
