Snip String

Swipe to cut the ropes at the right moment so the swinging sweet drops into the green mouth, grabbing stars on the way.

How to play

  1. The red sweet hangs from one or more ropes. Swipe your finger or mouse across a rope to cut it, or tap the Rope buttons.
  2. Once a rope is cut the sweet swings on whatever ropes are left, then flies free when the last one goes.
  3. Time your cuts so the sweet lands in the green mouth. Keep it away from the red spikes.
  4. Collect the gold stars on the way. You earn one star for finishing, plus one for each gold star you catch. Six levels in all.

Tips and strategy

  • Cut one rope first and let the sweet swing. The later you cut the last rope, the further it flies sideways.
  • Cutting every rope at once just drops the sweet straight down, which only works on the first level.
  • Watch where the swing is heading and cut a moment early. The sweet keeps its speed after the cut.
  • Stuck? Show a way replays one working set of cuts so you can see the timing.

FAQ

Why does the sweet fly sideways?
When a rope is cut mid swing, the sweet keeps the speed it had. Cut early or late to change where it lands.
Do the Show a way plays count for stars?
No. A level you win with the demo does not save stars. Replay it yourself to earn them.
Is my progress saved?
The stars you earn on each level are kept on this device in your browser only.
