Three snips. One dumpling. Aim for the pot.
Free on iPhone in the Roam app. Android coming soon.
Play free nowA little dumpling sits on a paper plank, a green pot waits below, and you have 3 scissors. Snip Happens is for anyone looking for games like Cut the Rope, and it runs in the Roam app on iPhone. Tap a plank to cut it, let physics drop the dumpling, and try to collect stars on the way down. Each level sits in a papercraft diorama box, and the star rating shows how clean your solution was.
How to solve a level
- Look at the board first: where the dumpling is, where the stars are and where the pot is.
- Tap a paper plank to snip it. Animated scissors show where you can cut.
- Let the dumpling fall and roll through the stars into the green pot.
- Stuck? Tap the bulb for a hint, or restart.
Why it works
- One tap per move, easy to learn on a phone
- A papercraft diorama style
- Star ratings for each level
- Hints and a quick restart when a drop goes wrong
If you like Cut the Rope
Cut the Rope built a whole genre from one gesture: cut, watch the candy swing, hope it lands in Om Nom's mouth. Snip Happens uses the same idea with paper planks instead of ropes.
Planks behave differently from ropes. A cut lets the dumpling fall or roll rather than swing, so the puzzles are more about order: which plank goes first.
Games like Cut the Rope: tips that carry over
Plan the whole drop before the first snip. With 3 scissors you cannot fix a wrong cut, only restart.
Go for the pot first and the stars second. Once you know a safe path, try again and grab every star for the full rating.
Gentle puzzles for any age
Puzzle players who like short levels and a clear goal. Each board fits on one screen, and you can see the whole problem before you touch anything.
It is also gentle. There is a hint button for when you are stuck and a restart for when a drop goes wrong, so it never feels unfair. Good for kids and adults alike.
