    Cut the Rope 2 Walkthrough

    By

    Cut the Rope 2 is a physics-based puzzle game created by ZeptoLab. Cut the Rope 2 is a follow-up to Cut the Rope, and like its predecessor, it challenges players to "cut" virtual ropes and drop pieces of candy into the waiting mouth of the monster named Om Nom. This time, however, Om Nom can also enlist the help of other monsters called "Nommies" to help him reach candy. Gamezebo's quick start strategy guide will provide you with detailed images, tips, information, and hints on how to feed the hungry Om Nom."

    Cut the Rope 2 Review

    By

    Monsters are infamous for having voracious appetites that cannot be sated, hence why they prowl the countryside and gobble up reams of sheep. Not little Om Nom, though. The star of the hugely popular Cut the Rope physics puzzler is content to nap in his box, surrounded by his stash of beloved hard candy.Sadly, when said stash gets stolen by spiders Om Nom's stubby little hand is forced, and he goes out into the wide world to take back what's rightfully his. Oh, Om Nom. Are we born monsters, or do we become monsters in order to survive life's cruelties?Cut the Rope 2 doesn't waste time with weighty philosophical questions. It simply wants to give you more good times with bits of candy swinging from the end of a rope. Thus, the premise for Cut the Rope 2 is identical to its predecessor: You "cut" ropes holding up candy in hopes that the tasty morsel will fall into Om Nom's waiting maw.

    The Room Two Review

    By

    Moody, atmospheric lighting; overly intricate locks on hidden compartments; creepy whispers in the dark - this is The Room, all right. Actually, it's The Room Two, but you'd be forgiven for mistaking them. There's not much to differentiate Fireproof Games' latest from its 2012 debut. That's not entirely a bad thing, though. The Room was - and remains - one of the best mobile/tablet games of all time.In that game and its sequel, you find yourself locked in a titular room. The original game was the world's premier Hellraiser-puzzle-box simulator, and gave you a series of boxes with overly intricate puzzles to break your brain using the touch and gyroscope features mostly unique to smartphones and tablets."The Room Two approaches its moniker with more single-minded earnestness. Now, each room (broken up between six chapters) is its own, entire puzzle. That desk lamp in the corner might hold the secret transforming key to unlock that cabinet's secret compartment. That compartment, meanwhile, only reveals itself after the player's futzing with a series of mirrors set on tables throughout the room. That compartment holds the object that opens the trunk that etcetera, etcetera.As adorable as the literalness is, I do miss the sense of manic obsession that came with the puzzle boxes. I was the master of my precious little object, exploring every nook, cranny, and sundry crevice to poke and prod until terrible secrets blossomed into endless puzzle after puzzle. There was no end, there was no final solution (at least it seemed) - only another step in my own, gloriously unhealthy fascination.

    Burn the Rope 3D Review

    By

    Burn the Rope 3D pretty much delivers what its title promises: A puzzle game that plays very similarly to Big Blue Bubble's popular Burn the Rope, but with the inclusion of a third dimension. It's a small change on paper, but it still adds significant depth to the rope-burning puzzles that made the initial game so popular in the first place.Like its predecessor, Burn the Rope 3D stars an everlasting flame sprite that's pretty eager to spread its fire across a series of ropes (fire in general takes propagation very seriously). When you're ready to burn, you touch a match to some on-screen ropes and watch the flames eat 'em up. Ideally, you want to burn everything, but you're allowed to pass the level if you clear at least 60% of your target."You might think, "Gee, how hard is it to burn everything to the ground?" Turns out it's harder than you think. Flames only stay alive as long as they're travelling upwards in Burn the Rope 3D. If they remain upside-down for too long, they sputter and die. In the original Burn the Rope, you fuel the fire by constantly turning your mobile device so that the flame continuously takes an upward path. In Burn the Rope 3D, you rotate the puzzle itself in order to keep the fires stoked.Bugs and colored ropes also return to fill the same roles they play in Burn the Rope. The different-colored ropes that appear in most stages can only be burned by a flame of the same color. If you roast a colored ant crawling along the ropes (can you hear the tiny screams?), the flame changes to match the bug's hue. With a careful combination of foresight and reckless burning, you should be able to reduce each puzzle into piles of hemp ash.

    Numerity Review

    By

    It's funny how much money some companies will spend making complex video games when so often, simplicity is best. Then again, making something simple that's also sophisticated and entertaining isn't exactly easy. Zedarus Games' new number-based search game Numerity is a prime example of sophisticated minimalism—part math drill and part hidden object game, it spins an amazing amount of fun from some very basic elements.The main idea in Numerity is to find specific numbers hidden within a complex jumble of them. To begin with, the game assigns these to you and you simply locate and tap them. Tapping makes every instance of the number, wherever it's located within the numerical medley, appear highlighted in black. You continue doing this as an on-screen counter tracks your progress all the way to 100%, and then you watch in delight as the camera moves back and reveals the image you've been building. It's kind of ridiculous how satisfying that is, reminiscent in a way to finally seeing the image appear in those infuriating stereogram things."Anyway, at first the images are of famous faces like Audrey Hepburn and John Lennon; then they move on to animals, famous landmarks (like the Eiffel Tower), lifestyle imagery, and gadgets. Each category has ten levels (that's fifty levels total) and the game changes and becomes more difficult from one category to the next. Where at first you're merely given numbers, you're then asked to do simple math problems to arrive at them before being able to search. Before you math-o-phobes out there run away screaming, the problems here are no harder than 29 + 10, 91-17 or 3 x 5, a setup that's accessible to players of basically all ages.

    Kiwi & Me Review

    By

    It's early spring and you're out for your first walk of the season. As you trot along, something catches your eye: an egg, one quite unlike any egg you've ever seen before. You hatch it and guess what pops out? The adorable Kiwi with eyes as big as bowls of milk! Your new little friend needs help moving through the forest, so it's your job to clear tiles out of the way one match at a time.Kiwi & Me takes place on a map with a path that leads from puzzle stage to puzzle stage. Simply tap to enter a level, and then let the tile swapping begin! Each level has a goal you must meet in order to proceed. Usually these are simple things like score a certain amount of points or clear all the crystals out of the way. Your moves are limited, so you have to conserve swaps and use them only when you're sure it's a good idea."Matching four tiles creates a power tile, a colored orb that will unleash a powerful tile-clearing move when matched that's unique for every color. Blue power tiles, for example, clear a horizontal path, while green tiles clear a localized area in all directions. By creating bigger matches you can produce leveled-up power tiles that are even more effective, and if you swap a pair of power tiles, be ready for nice things to happen! Naturally, you'll want to unleash these bad boys as often as you can.Special items are also part of the Kiwi & Me experience. Each level has a hidden item that can appear for Kiwi to unwrap, but it isn't guaranteed to appear, which means you'll want to replay stages as often as you can. Drop the item to the bottom of the screen and complete the level to see what item Kiwi gets to play with. These items have practical uses, too, such as the soccer ball you find early on that lets you clear roadblocks on the map screen.
