Discover Om Nom’s seven clever helpers in Cut the Rope 2. Each Nommie brings a unique power that helps Canadian players and families glide over gaps, launch candy, burn obstacles, and grab every last star.
Use this friendly guide to learn what each Nommie does, when to call them in, and how to combine their abilities for genius physics-based solutions.
Instead of repeating the same rope-cutting tricks, Nommies turn each level into a fresh mini-adventure. They add moving platforms, surprise jumps, flaming shortcuts, and airlifts that invite you to experiment and replay.
Each helper has an ability, ideal puzzle situations, common beginner mistakes, and smart combos with other Nommies.
Roto glides along a set path while holding Om Nom or objects. Think of Roto as a slow, steady helicopter that you can park exactly where you need it.
Use Roto when stars or candy sit in awkward mid-air positions or when the floor is covered in hazards.
Pair Roto with Lick or Blue to move between air routes and bridges or stacks.
Strategy example: Let Roto lift Om Nom above a row of stars, then cut a side rope so the candy swings across and bumps into Om Nom while Roto hovers.
Lick uses a long, sticky tongue to form a firm platform. Candy can roll along it, and Om Nom can rest on it just like a wooden plank.
Use Lick when the level has big open gaps or when candy keeps rolling off the stage.
Combine Lick with Toss: throw candy onto the tongue bridge and let it roll gently into Om Nom.
Tap Blue to multiply. Each new Blue adds another layer to a living elevator that can push Om Nom, candy, or objects upward.
Reach for Blue when your goals are clearly above you and simple rope swings are not enough.
Stack Blue under a candy held by ropes, then cut the rope when the height lines up with a row of stars or a Lick bridge.
Strategy example: Use Blue to push Om Nom right under a fruit, then let Boo scare him sideways into the candy.
Toss uses a powerful flick to launch candy or items into the air. The throw follows a curved arc, which is perfect for tricky angles.
Use Toss in levels where the shortest path is blocked and you need a trick shot to win.
Time Toss throws with Lick bridges, letting candy land on a tongue and roll safely toward Om Nom or another star.
Strategy example: Toss the candy upward, let it bounce off a wall, land on Blue’s stack, then drift down a Lick bridge into Om Nom.
Boo gives Om Nom a playful scare, making him jump or move quickly in a new direction. This short burst of motion can change how he catches candy.
Use Boo when everything seems almost right, but you need a small, precise adjustment in timing or position.
Use Boo right after cutting a rope so Om Nom hops into the exact position where the candy will pass.
Strategy example: Roto carries Om Nom slowly, then Boo scares him forward as the candy swings in, catching both candy and final star at once.
Snailbrow travels along walls and ceilings, pushing candy or objects as it goes. Its sticky shell keeps things from falling while it crawls.
Use Snailbrow when stars sit near walls or when you see paths sketched along ceilings.
Use Snailbrow to deliver candy over a gap, then let it drop safely onto a Lick bridge or a Blue stack.
Ginger unleashes a short burst of fire that destroys specific obstacles like wooden blocks and barriers, clearing new routes for candy and Om Nom.
Turn to Ginger in levels where the correct path looks blocked or covered by wooden shapes.
Burn a blocking piece with Ginger, then immediately use Toss or Roto to guide the now-free candy along a star-filled route.
Strategy example: Ginger clears a wood wall, Blue lifts the candy into the air, then Lick builds a final tongue bridge leading straight to Om Nom.
The real magic in Cut the Rope 2 appears when you chain abilities together. Treat each level like a mini puzzle lab where you test different helper orders.
Look for levels that show multiple helper icons or have routes that feel too complex for a single Nommie. These are perfect places to test long chains of actions.
Many players try to use every Nommie at once. Instead, ask: “Which helper should act first, and which one finishes the move?” Planning the order is often the real solution.
Use this quick-reference board while you play. It is especially helpful for families sharing one device and talking through options together.
Use these patterns as inspiration, then explore more in our full Puzzle Lab strategies section.
Many Canadian players chase the candy first and ignore fruit. Flip that habit: plan a fruit route using Nommies, then finish with a clean candy catch.
When the clock matters, Nommies help you skip slow sections and reach the goal quickly.
To earn medals, you usually need all stars plus extra goals like fruit or time limits. Nommies keep each run efficient.
