Cut the Rope Level 400 — Fruit Box Walkthrough (3 Stars)
Level 400★★★★★
Guide by LevelWalks
Level 400 lands in Cut the Rope's brutal 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 — Fruit Box, Level 25
**Box:** Fruit Box | **Level:** 400 (Fruit Box #25)
## Walkthrough
This level uses teleportation, time reversals, electric sparks, rocket boosters and ropes. 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 teleportation** 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 time reversals 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 teleportation.
- Star 3: The hardest one — you need to time the ropes perfectly before the candy falls past it.
## Tips for This Level
The Fruit Box introduces teleportation 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 are designed to be completed, even when they feel impossible. The developers playtested every star path, so there's always a solution. If you've been stuck for a while, try a completely different order of operations — sometimes the first cut isn't the obvious one.
## Common Mistakes
Players frequently make these errors on Level 400:
- Cutting the nearest rope first without considering the candy's full path to all three stars and Om Nom.
- Ignoring momentum — the candy continues moving after a rope is cut, and timing the cut at the swing's peak gives maximum distance.
- Not replaying the level to observe star positions before attempting a three-star run.
Tips
- Cut ropes in order from top to bottom for the most control over candy movement.
- In the Fruit Box, teleportation are key — learn their timing patterns.
- You don't need all 3 stars to progress, but replay levels later for a perfect score.
