Rope Chef

Rope Chef is a charming physics puzzle set in the kitchen. Ingredients dangle on ropes above a cooking pot, and you cut them loose so they swing, bounce or float in – but always in the order shown on the recipe card. Get the order wrong and Nibbs, the little steamed-bun chef, faints on the spot.

There are 50 short levels spread over 14 cuisines, from a Singapore hawker stall to Peru. Each world brings a twist such as bounce pads, poppable bubbles, fans, portals, conveyor belts, wind, burning ropes, ice or a rival chef's decoy pot. Earn up to 3 stars by serving the dish, grabbing the spice and beating par time. A ghost line previews swings, and you can skip a dish if you are stuck.

Click or drag across a rope with the mouse to cut it; on touch screens, swipe.

Tap bubbles to pop them.

Check the recipe card at the top and drop ingredients into the pot in that order.
