Poisoned Rope: Logic Puzzle

Some ropes are lying to you. A cut that looks perfectly safe can silently kill the level — and you may not find out until it's far too late. Think first. Then cut. 🕊️ THE SETUP A rope-cutting logic puzzle: small blue birds hang from a tree branch, tied by ropes — and hungry hawks hang right beside them. Cut the right ropes in the right order to free every bird. Free a hawk by mistake and it attacks the nearest bird. Level over. ☠️ POISONED CUTS The signature twist. Some cuts don't punish you now — they punish you later. A harmless-looking snip can quietly close off every path to victory, and some traps only reveal the damage several cuts down the line. If you're not planning ahead, you're already losing. ⚖️ RUTHLESS, BUT FAIR • The moment a level becomes unsolvable, the game detects it and tells you instantly — no time wasted on a dead position. • Every level is guaranteed solvable by construction. If you lost, the flaw was in your plan, not the puzzle. • No timers. No speed pressure. No luck. Pure deduction and planning. 🪤 THE TRAPS EVOLVE New elements unlock as you climb: • Chained traps — hawks that share lifelines; a wrong cut early in the level shows its consequence at the very end. • Iron chains that cannot be cut, welding towers together. • Twin ropes — cut one, and its twin snaps too, wherever it is. • The balloon hawk — the only hawk that is safe to release. If you notice it. • Golden levels — a limited scissors budget in exchange for double points. ⭐ CHASE THE PERFECT SOLUTION • 3 stars per level, scored against the optimal solution. • Points and a win-streak system reward mastery and speed of thought. • Past level 100: an extreme challenge tier built for puzzle geniuses. ♾️ INFINITE LEVELS Levels are procedurally generated on your device — they never repeat, and the difficulty keeps climbing. There is no final level. There is only how far your logic can take you. 💡 STUCK? NO SHAME IN A HINT Optionally watch a short ad for a hint that lights up the correct rope — or to undo your last cut, even after losing. Never required. 🎟️ FREE — WITH RESPECTFUL ADS Poisoned Rope is free and ad-supported, on clear terms: • No banner ads.
