Cut the Rope Level 206 — DJ Box Walkthrough (3 Stars)
Level 206★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
Level 206 lands in Cut the Rope's hard band, and most players who Google it are stuck not because the answer is hard, but because the puzzle frames the question in a way that sends you down the wrong path.
## Cut the Rope — DJ Box, Level 6
**Box:** DJ Box | **Level:** 206 (DJ Box #6)
## Walkthrough
This level uses ropes, air cushions, teleportation, anti-gravity and time reversals. 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 ropes** 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 air cushions 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 ropes.
- Star 3: The hardest one — you need to time the time reversals perfectly before the candy falls past it.
## Tips for This Level
The DJ Box introduces ropes 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
Map the level's mechanic chain: which element feeds into which? Identify the critical path (the sequence of interactions the candy must follow) and lock down each step before adding star collection. Optimize for stars only after the basic path works.
## Common Mistakes
Players frequently make these errors on Level 206:
- Popping bubbles too early or too late — bubbles need precise timing to redirect the candy toward stars.
- Forgetting that air cushions have a fixed direction and strength, so the candy's entry angle matters.
- Cutting multiple ropes in rapid succession when the level requires waiting for the candy to reach a specific position first.
Tips
- Cut ropes in order from top to bottom for the most control over candy movement.
- In the DJ Box, ropes are key — learn their timing patterns.
- You don't need all 3 stars to progress, but replay levels later for a perfect score.
