We’re assuming all Cut the Rope fans and players are interested in traveling through different periods of time, yes? No? But if you are addicted to the hugely popular puzzle game, then you’d have no choice but to immerse yourself in history with their adventure game called, what else, Cut the Rope: Time Travel. Om Nom, the cute little protagonist of the original game is back and he’s still guzzling candy like crazy, but this time, he also traces his ancestry throughout the ages.
Apparently, there’s a reason why he’s addicted to candy and that becomes evident as you meet his monster predecessors, who need to be fed with sweets as well. You will get to play through the beginning of time with the stone age, travel to Medieval times, the Renaissance period, visit the ancient civilizations of Egypt, Greece and the Asian dynasty, dance through the Disco era, chase cowboys in the Wild West, and ride with pirates as well (is that even an era?). You also get to travel to the space age with a futuristic looking age. The latest update also adds the Industrial Revolution as Om Nom takes on the persona of inventor Nikola Tesla.
Aside from the fancy period costumes and the themed backgrounds, it is still the same old physics-based game, that is oftentimes difficult but extremely fun. Well, it is fun for those who like and are good at that sort of thing and frustrating for those who do not understand puzzle games.
Cut the Rope: Time Travel can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store. There are several in-app purchases so you need to make sure your settings are correct if you don’t want to spend on candy-devouring monsters.
