## Cut the Rope — Pillow Box, Level 16
**Box:** Pillow Box | **Level:** 241 (Pillow Box #16)
## Walkthrough
This level uses time reversals, air cushions, anti-gravity, candy transformers and rocket boosters. The candy starts from the right side 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 time reversals** 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 time reversals.
- Star 3: The hardest one — you need to time the rocket boosters perfectly before the candy falls past it.
## Tips for This Level
The Pillow Box introduces time reversals 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
These levels take multiple attempts even for experienced players. Don't reset after every failed attempt — watch how the candy moves when things go wrong. Failed attempts teach you the physics interactions you'll need for the correct solution.
## Common Mistakes
Players frequently make these errors on Level 241:
- 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 Pillow Box, time reversals are key — learn their timing patterns.
- You don't need all 3 stars to progress, but replay levels later for a perfect score.
