Cut the Rope Level 128 — Cosmic Box Walkthrough (3 Stars)
Level 128★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
Level 128 sits between Cut the Rope's broader checkpoints, the kind of in-between puzzle that only really makes sense after you've solved both neighbors.
## Cut the Rope — Cosmic Box, Level 3
**Box:** Cosmic Box | **Level:** 128 (Cosmic Box #3)
## Walkthrough
This level uses magic hats, rocket boosters, anti-gravity, air cushions and electric sparks. The candy starts through the center and Om Nom is waiting at the bottom.
### Step-by-Step Solution
1. **First, observe the layout.** Look at where the candy hangs and trace a path to Om Nom. Note every rope, bubble, and obstacle.
2. **Cut the first rope** — the one holding the candy closest to the top. This drops the candy toward the first star.
3. **Use the magic hats** to redirect the candy toward the second star. Timing is important here — wait until the candy swings to its peak before activating.
4. **Collect the final star** by using the rocket boosters to swing the candy wide.
5. **Guide the candy to Om Nom.** If you miss a star, the candy should still reach Om Nom — just replay for a perfect score.
### Getting All 3 Stars
- Star 1: Drops naturally when you cut the first rope.
- Star 2: Requires precise timing with the magic hats.
- Star 3: The hardest one — you need to time the electric sparks perfectly before the candy falls past it.
## Tips for This Level
The Cosmic Box introduces magic hats which add a new dimension to your puzzle-solving. Don't rush — watch the candy's momentum and plan two moves ahead.
## Why This Level Is Tricky
Focus on the hardest star first and build your solution around collecting it. The easier stars usually fall into place once you nail the critical timing. If a star requires an air cushion bounce, practice that single interaction before adding rope cuts.
## Common Mistakes
Players frequently make these errors on Level 128:
- Rushing to feed Om Nom and skipping the hardest star — getting 2 stars is easy, but the third requires a specific trick.
- Cutting a rope when the candy is at the bottom of its swing instead of the top, resulting in a shorter arc.
- Ignoring the visual hint lines that some levels display briefly at the start, showing the intended cut order.
Tips
- Cut ropes in order from top to bottom for the most control over candy movement.
- In the Cosmic Box, magic hats are key — learn their timing patterns.
- You don't need all 3 stars to progress, but replay levels later for a perfect score.
