About Rotate Cups: Rotation Physics Puzzle with Balls and Cups

Rotate Cups is a rotation physics puzzle game where the goal is to guide balls into specific cups by controlling the angle of each cup on screen. The clear cups act as ramps, and tilting them correctly sends balls rolling downward toward the blue target cups at the bottom. Several scenes show a light blue cup resting on a small orange rectangular base near the bottom of the frame. A small tan sphere is visible inside various blue cups across different scenes.

Every blue cup must receive at least one ball — larger blue cups can hold more than one, while multiple smaller blue cups each require their own ball. Levels are not timed, and rotating or pausing as many times as needed is always allowed. One scene shows an orange rectangular plank angled diagonally between an upper and lower cup.

How to Play Rotate Cups

The core task is rotating the clear cups so they form ramps that channel each ball down into the blue cups lower on the screen. Larger blue cups accept more than one ball, and every smaller blue cup must receive at least one.

Skipping intermediary cups is permitted — bumping a ball off the outside of a cup or bypassing one entirely causes no penalty, as long as all balls eventually land in the blue cups. On levels with a long reach, a somewhat rapid cup spin toward the destination can be enough, but in some cases that rapid spin must serve as the starting point, followed by a slight quick spin back just as the ball is leaving to give it a bit more lift.
