Rolling Cheese Game Review

Rolling Cheese Game Background

Rolling Cheese is a physics-based puzzle game where you must roll a cheese wheel toward the mouth of a hungry mouse. Select the parts of the level to break to create a path for the cheese to roll. Collect strawberries along the way to earn extra points.

This game was developed by CodeThis Labs.

How to Play Rolling Cheese

To select, left click with your mouse or tap on the screen with your fingers. To get started, select the play button on the lower right corner of the welcome screen.

Select each of the breakable items to drop the cheese and create a path for it to roll. Roll the cheese down to the mouse’s mouth to finish the level. If the cheese rolls away from the mouse, you fail the level.

Should the cheese start rolling away or get stuck, select the reset button on the top left corner to restart the level.

Basic Gameplay Advice

There are 24 levels in this game, which are unlocked sequentially. You can replay any of the levels you’ve previously beaten.

There are two types of blocks in this game. Brick blocks are brittle and can be destroyed by selecting them. Stone bricks are harder and can’t be destroyed. Likewise, there are two types of planks in this game. Cracked planks can be destroyed like brick blocks, while intact ones cannot.

Completing each level is worth 100 points. You can increase your score by collecting strawberries. Each strawberry is worth 100 points. Collect all 3 strawberries in the level to get the highest possible score (400) and rating (3 stars). The levels are arranged in such a way that you always collect at least 1 strawberry when taking a path to the mouse’s mouth. The lowest possible score and rating you can get is 200 points and 1 star. You can view your total score on the win screen.

You have a cumulative score based on the number of points you’ve earned from every level. Each time you replay a level, the points you’ve earned from it is also added to your cumulative score.

Advanced Playing Tips & Strategy

Try to figure out the best path by looking at where the apples go. Note that some levels have 5 apples (you only need to collect 3), which indicates that the path can fork in either one of two directions.

Some levels require you to get the cheese rolling by hitting it with a stone wheel. Choose the right time to roll the wheel so that when it hits, the cheese rolls in the desired direction.

Trial and error are your biggest allies in this game. In some levels, you’ll need to play and replay the game to understand where and how the cheese will roll.

Educational Aspects

The game is a physics-based spatial logic puzzle and will challenge a player’s ability to visualize where an object might roll. Players will also need to remove obstacles in the correct sequence to create a path for the cheese to roll.
