About This Game
Fruit Ninja is a swipe-to-slice arcade game where fruits are tossed into the air and you must slash them before they fall. Swipe across the screen to slice fruits and earn points. Slice multiple fruits in a single swipe for combo bonuses. Watch out for bombs — slicing one ends the game instantly. You have 3 lives and lose one each time a fruit falls without being sliced. As your score grows, fruits fly faster, come in larger batches, and bombs appear more frequently.
Controls
Swipe across fruits with your finger on mobile or click-and-drag with your mouse on desktop. P to pause.
Tips & Strategy
Focus on swiping through groups of fruits for combo bonuses. Avoid quick, short swipes near bombs — use long, sweeping motions instead. Watch the bottom of the screen for incoming fruits and time your swipes. Let bombs pass without swiping near them. As difficulty increases, prioritize not missing fruits over getting combos. Save your lives for later rounds when the game gets harder.

How Scoring Works
Each sliced fruit earns 1 point. Slicing 3 or more fruits in a single swipe awards bonus points equal to the number of fruits sliced. Missing a fruit costs 1 life. Slicing a bomb ends the game immediately. Your best score is saved locally.
