Candy Rope Cut game guide
Goal of the game
In Candy Rope Cut you play with your hand in front of the camera. A big candy swings on a rope above a hungry little monster that waddles left and right. SWIPE your finger FAST across the rope to cut it — the candy falls with its swing. Land it in the monster's mouth to score; hit stars on the way down for bonus points.
Miss and the candy smashes — you lose a life. Watch out: later candies hang from two ropes, cut both! Power-ups: Slow-Mo, Triple and Double Points.

Tips and strategy
- Stay near the centre in Candy Rope Cut; it gives you the most room to dodge in either direction.
- Don't chase every pickup in Candy Rope Cut — grab only the ones on your safe path.
- Rhythm matters in Candy Rope Cut: watch one full cycle before you act, then act on the beat.
- Save your focus for the moment a Freeze or Slow-Mo starts — that is when Candy Rope Cut gives you free points.
- Good, even lighting from the front makes tracking in Candy Rope Cut far more reliable than a bright window behind you.
- Replay Candy Rope Cut a few times: each run teaches you the patterns, and scores usually double after the first five games.
