How to play

One finger, one jar, a lot of pasta.

  1. Drop

    Tap to aim or swipe to slide the dispenser, then let go. Every ingredient rolls, bounces and stacks with real physics.

  2. Merge

    Two identical ingredients merge into the next one up the recipe. Every merge scores points and gives you back a second.

  3. Serve

    Complete the level’s objectives before the timer runs out. Finish fast to earn all three stars.

  • Mind the red line

    If an ingredient stays above it for 3 seconds, the jar overflows and the level is lost.

  • Chain your combos

    Merge three times in quick succession and the chef cheers you on: “Mamma Mia!”, “Delizioso!”, “Perfetto!”

The recipe, in ten merges

Each pair moves one step up. The dispenser only serves the first six ingredients: everything after that, you cook yourself.

  5. FarfalleBow-tie shaped

Tricks up your sleeve

Four action bonuses get you out of a sticky jar. You start with three of each, and can restock them with coins.

  • Water drop

    Put a rank-up drop on the dispenser and choose exactly where it lands.

  • Merge

    Freeze the board and merge up to three matching pairs already in play.

  • Olive oil

    Make everything slippery for 4 seconds so the pile slumps down.

  • Shake

    Throw the whole pile into the air to unstick a badly settled stack.

Watch out for thieves

Birds, ants and geckos sneak in to steal the very ingredient you need. Drop something on their head before they get away.

Frequently asked questions

Is Pasta Drop free?

Yes. All 60 levels are free to play. Coins can be earned by playing, by watching optional ads, or bought in optional packs.

Do I have to watch ads?

No. An ad only plays when you tap the “ADS +5” button to earn 5 coins. There are no banners and no ads between levels.

Can I remove ads?

There are no forced ads to remove, so there is no “remove ads” purchase. Ads only ever play when you ask for one.

Do coins unlock levels?

No. Coins only buy extra action bonuses (water drop, merge, olive oil and shake). Levels unlock one by one as you beat them.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up and no login. Your progress, stars and coins are saved on your device.

I changed phones. Where are my coins and progress?

Progress is saved on your device only, so it does not carry over to a new phone or a reinstall. There is no cloud save yet.

A purchase didn’t give me my coins. What can I do?

Send us a message from the contact page with your store receipt, and we will add the coins for you.
