Cut the Rope Level 167 — Toy Box Walkthrough (3 Stars)
Level 167★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
When I ran through Cut the Rope myself, Level 167 was one of the puzzles where I had to put the phone down and think for longer than I wanted to admit. The walkthrough below is what I worked out, plus the reason the trick works.
## Cut the Rope — Toy Box, Level 17
**Box:** Toy Box | **Level:** 167 (Toy Box #17)
## Walkthrough
This level uses magic hats, air cushions, anti-gravity, electric sparks and bubbles. 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 popping the bubble at the right moment.
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 use the bubble to float up before the candy falls past it.
## Tips for This Level
The Toy 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 167:
- Using teleporters without first checking where the exit teleporter is positioned relative to stars.
- Not accounting for gravity switches that reverse the candy's fall direction mid-level.
- Attempting to collect stars in visual order (left to right) when the physics require a different sequence.
Tips
- Cut ropes in order from top to bottom for the most control over candy movement.
- In the Toy 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.
