Match-3 spinoff to the hit puzzle game

Cut the Rope: BLAST is a free-to-play puzzle game that serves as a spinoff to the popular arcade Cut the Rope. Contrary to its predecessors, the entry from SKYWALK follows a format similar to Candy Crush Saga. Follow the cute green monster Om Nom as he travels various lands and meets up with other characters from the beloved franchise.

Aside from the seemingly overused match-three puzzle format, Cut the Rope: BLAST features a familiar reward system and an entirely new gameplay formats–including a cooperative format that allows you to call friends and play together.

A less complex puzzler

The first thing players will find with Cut the Rope: BLAST is that it is much easier and more straightforward compared to other entries in the franchise. Whereas the other puzzle games get increasingly more frustrating with their use of roundabout and creative elements, this one remains easy throughout the game. Players looking to challenge themselves will have to look elsewhere.

Also, fans of the franchise will definitely love the artwork and designs that went into the game. It uses backgrounds from the Om Nom Stories, the official cartoon series that features Om Nom and the rest of the gang. From romantic gardens to magic mansions, the game also features stages neatly patterned against these scenes that create a coherent feel as you play the game.

Lastly, for such an enjoyable and colorful game, the game is virtually ads-free. Unlike other games, it doesn’t make you suffer through unskippable advertisement content. However, it limits gameplay through the use of a stamina system that decreases with every play. If you want to skip this limitation, though, you’ll have to pay through in-app purchases. Unfortunately, not only is it costly but it also only lasts for 24 hours.

A refreshing entry into the franchise

With all its features, Cut the Rope: BLAST is a refreshing entry to the franchise by adding a game that uses a different format but with similar aesthetics. It uses a range of backgrounds and design choices that fans of Om Nom over the years will definitely appreciate. While the game doesn’t really progress much in terms of gameplay difficulty, it rarely features ads. Recommended.
