About ZeptoLab
ZeptoLab is a global interactive-entertainment company focused on mobile games and character-driven intellectual property. Best known as the creator of the physics-puzzle franchise Cut the Rope and its mascot, Om Nom, the company develops and publishes games for mobile audiences.
The original Cut the Rope launched in 2010 and grew into a wider series that includes Cut the Rope: Experiments, Cut the Rope: Time Travel, Cut the Rope 2, Cut the Rope: Magic, Cut the Rope Remastered, Cut the Rope Daily, and Cut the Rope 3. The studio's catalogue also includes original titles spanning puzzle, strategy, racing, simulation, and action-oriented play.
Games and publishing
ZeptoLab's work combines casual and mid-core mobile-game development with publishing and live-operations support. Its portfolio includes:
- Pudding Monsters
- King of Thieves
- C.A.T.S.: Crash Arena Turbo Stars
- Bullet Echo
- Evo Pop
- Om Nom: Run
- Downhill Smash
- Overcrowded: Tycoon
The company works across physics-based puzzle design, PvP multiplayer systems, real-time combat, character development, and mobile publishing. It also supports third-party distribution alongside internally developed projects.
Beyond games
ZeptoLab has extended the Cut the Rope universe into animation, licensing, and merchandise. The episodic animated series Om Nom Stories adapts the franchise's central character for screen entertainment and has been distributed through platforms including Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube.
Its broader entertainment activity brings together game development and publishing with character licensing, animation production, and transmedia merchandising.
