The guide

Overview

Swipe your screen to cut fruit, but don’t hit bombs, that’s how easy it is to play Fruit Ninja, the hit fruit-slicing mobile game enjoyed by billions of players all over the world. Start your addiction to the delicious fruit carnage with the three original game modes and a wide range of blades and dojos to choose from. Experience the thrill of setting a new high score in the fan-favourite Arcade mode as you dodge bombs and slice massive combos with the help of the special Double Score, Freeze or Frenzy bananas, or relax and slash for stress relief in Zen Mode. Last but not least, slice as many fruit as you can in Classic mode, just don’t drop the fruit and don’t hit the bombs. Make your game even more exciting by equipping the special power-ups: Peachy Time, which gives extra time; Berry Blast, which destroys surrounding fruit when sliced; and Bomb Deflect.

What it's like to play

Timing is everything here. An arcade game strips play down to a reflex and then tests it over and over, each time with slightly less margin. You jump a beat early and fall. You jump on the beat and the run continues. Scores climb, music speeds up, and the screen fills with things to avoid. A session is a stack of short attempts, each one a little better than the last.

How to play

1Press Play and spend the first run just watching how fast things move; do not worry about the score yet.
2Use short, deliberate taps or key presses rather than mashing. Most arcade games punish holding a button too long.
3Watch for a rhythm in the obstacles. Once you hear or see the pattern, your inputs will land on their own.
4Chase one small improvement per run, such as surviving ten seconds longer, rather than a new record every time.
