Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift App Reviews
Featured Review
“Cut the rope is a truly hilarious game from start to finish, just the starting sequence on it's own is hilarious. The aim of cut the rope, the original, is to collect as many stars as you can while guiding a piece of candy from string to string; or rope to rope. In order to get the candy to the "thing" you have to negotiate obstacles and avoid either allowing the candy to rise out of the box or to drop out of the bottom. This Christmas version, however, has a few additions such as stockings that teleport the candy to another part of the box. I have completed the game now but this does seem to be the gift that keeps on giving because, not only can you go back and get better scores on each of the levels, but you can make your own levels as well! This is a truly brilliant game and best of all, it's free! Go out and download it from the app store now. You won't regret it.”

How can you make your own levels?? I've beat all the levels with three stars & would love to be able to do something else instead of just deleting it.

“Super fun and festive, I wish the kinda was candy can though lol.”
“It's very fun. It's so addicting. Ireally reccomend this!”
“Fun puzzle game. Basically you cut ropes which have candy on it and feed to a cute little critter. For added fun you have to collect 3 stars on each level. Did I mention it's free? No. Well... it is.”
“It's free. This little monster is cute. The game naturally kicks ass. Buy it!
Oh wait...It's free :D”

“First off, it’s hard to not appreciate the team at Zeptolab and Chillingo for putting out these additional 25 levels for free. The earlier update to Cut the Rope that added 25 new levels and a gravity-flipping gameplay mechanic proved their commitment to ongoing free content, but there’s no questioning that this Christmas edition could have just as easily been included as one of those free updates to the paid version to net themselves some more sales. Offering this as a free standalone product is a commendable move, especially for a top-selling app that doesn’t need to be handing out freebies to draw in the crowd.
For those who still haven’t tried the original (and shame on you if you haven’t!), Cut the Rope is a physics puzzler about a hungry little green guy in a box whose appetite can only be satiated by candy. Players need to cut the rope holding the candy in a particular manner so as to get it to land directly into little Om Nom’s mouth. It’s both as simple and as tremendously difficult as that.
The visuals in Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift have received the appropriate seasonal makeover, and while not over the top, the tweaks have been done tastefully enough to give you a grin without chucking a snowball in your face. The rope, previously a piece of string, has been replaced with a strand of Christmas lights. The background shows a paper crafted folding of a Christmas tree. Every now and then, Om Nom will slip on a pair of reindeer ears for a second. But the biggest item? That would be the stockings.
More than just decorative, stockings introduce a brand new gameplay mechanic to the Cut the Rope formula. Much like the popular PC and console game Portal, stockings act as some sort of matter transport device. Drop the candy in one red stocking and it will pop out of another one, wherever it happens to be on the board. It makes for a neat twist on the puzzling, and much to our delight, developer Zeptolab included some fairly significant physics to the whole process. The greater the height the candy is dropped from before landing in a stocking, for example, the higher it will shoot out of the other one. It’s a great touch, and one that has the potential to offer some tremendously challenging puzzles.
Going hand in hand with its free nature, however, is the fact that these 25 levels have been kept accessible to everyone. If you’ve already earned every coveted star in the full version and are eagerly awaiting the next major challenge, you’re not going to find it here. The puzzles are still a blast to play through, but the level of difficulty here is entry level at best. If you’re a veteran of the original Cut the Rope, don’t expect to spend more than half an hour before netting all 75 stars in Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift.
Even if it is over relatively fast, as a free holiday-themed offering Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift is a great download that doubles as a thank you to the fans. With 25 fun new puzzles, a great new gameplay mechanic, and a charming Christmas makeover, Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift continues the tradition of satisfying Om Nom gameplay. We can’t wait to see what other tricks Zeptolab has up their sleeves for our little green friend.”

“FUN!!! If you like Cut the Rope, get this one. Very creative "holiday" stuff, too.”
“This app is a great free gift from Chillingo especially modified for the Christmas season. There are some nice little touches within the game which help make it christmasy such as the portals being stockings.
Overall the app comes with 25 brand new free levels and also adds game centre support to help you rack up some more acheivmemts. If you love the previous 'cut the rope' title and also angry birds then you will love this.
What can you say, it's FREE :D”

“love this game..its a great little addition...and hopefully there will be a sequel because they fixed almost every problem with the normal game”
“This game is a definite MUST HAVE! The game is full of good challenging puzzle to attempt to feed the cute little green guy his candy and the christmas theme is a definite plus. Now I do remind you that this is a free game so you only get 25 levels but if you love the game i definitely recommend you buy the full version for hours of fun and plus the full version is only $0.99 so it's definitely a good bang for your buck.”
“This game is pretty addicting, the purpose is to cut the strings with the candy on it and get it into the little monsters mouth, but its not as easy as it seems sometimes.”

‘Tis the season to be jolly, and if you’re the developer behind Cut the Rope, you’ve had a lot to be jolly about this year.
