Cut the Rope Celebrates Its Massive 15th Anniversary

• Collectible cards showcasing Om Nom's journey are being released
• A billion downloads later, the adventure continues

Ah, Cut the Rope—what a nostalgic trip. If you recall frantically swiping at ropes to deliver candy to that adorable green monster, congratulations: you’ve been around long enough to consider Om Nom an old friend. And if you’re part of Gen Alpha, this series is likely as old as you are.

Fifteen years after its initial launch, ZeptoLab is honoring the Cut the Rope legacy with a limited-time anniversary event that blends nostalgia with fresh puzzle challenges. This update introduces a new card collection system featuring Om Nom’s most iconic transformations throughout the franchise’s history, from his humble beginnings in 2010 to his magical evolutions and time-traveling escapades.

You can now earn collectible cards highlighting special moments from Om Nom’s long and surprisingly emotional journey by completing levels. Keep solving puzzles to unlock more cards, earning milestone rewards if you stick around to complete the set. These cards are only available during the anniversary window, so don’t miss out if you’re a longtime fan!

I don’t need to prove Cut the Rope’s popularity; since its debut, it has been downloaded over a billion times, spawning sequels, spin-offs, and even a hit animated series. Through every iteration—from Experiments and Magic to Cut the Rope 3—the core remains unchanged: simple physics, clever design, and a candy-loving creature who somehow stays hungry after all these years.

If you want to dive deeper into Om Nom’s legacy, Stephen’s feature covers 15 years of the Cut the Rope series and includes an interview with ZeptoLab’s Efim Voinov about the studio’s journey and how it adapted from premium to free-to-play. Plus, this list of top physics games on iOS is great if you're looking for something new.
