Fruit Ninja

Hundreds of thousands of people all over the world love playing Fruit Ninja online and on their phones! Do you?

Fruit Ninja is a wildly popular game that is known around the world for its simplicity and its addicting nature. When playing the game, you get to slice fruit as they fly onto the screen from all directions. If you’re playing on a smartphone, you use your finger to slice the fruit. You could also play on an Android tablet device or even on Xbox Kinect!

When you use your finger to slice the fruit in half, you get some points. You get even more points when you slice 3 or more fruit in one swipe. The more fruit you cut in one swipe, the more points you get. These swipes are called combos. When you get a few combos in a short period of time, you go on a Combo Blitz, which gives you even more points for every combo you achieve. There are various levels of Combo Blitz, the highest of which is called Unbelievable Blitz.

The point of the game, aside from having fun and watching juice splatter from the fruit you slice, is to get as many points as you can. After all, you want to show your friends that you’re a better Fruit Ninja than them, right? The more fruit you slice and the more combos you get, the more points you will have. But there’s more to it:

Fruit Ninja’s Bonus Bananas

Fruit Ninja Online

When you play Fruit Ninja online or on your phone, you will see all kinds of fruit. From coconuts and pineapples to a kiwi fruit and even watermelons. But one of the most important fruits in the game is the banana. Bananas come in 3 varieties: the Frenzy Banana, the Freeze Banana and the Double Banana. Each one gives you an opportunity to earn a lot more points!

The Frenzy Banana creates a fruit frenzy on your screen. When you slice it, a whole bunch of fruit will come flying out from all sides of your screen for a few seconds. This is a great chance to get some awesome combos. It’s even possible to get an 11 fruit combo when there are so many fruits on the screen at once!

The Freeze Banana makes time freeze and it slows everything down so that you could slice your fruit more easily. During the Freeze mode, you get the time to plan your slices carefully to get the most points possible from the fruit you have available to you on your screen.

The Double Banana gives you double points for every fruit you slice. When you get combos or Criticals, you get double points too. This is great when you’re on a roll and in the middle of a blitz, because you’re already getting extra points and now they will be doubled.

Sometimes, when you’re lucky in Fruit Ninja, you will get 2 bananas in a short period of time. The powers of the bananas combine to make a great situation in which you have Freeze mode and double points at the same time, or a Frenzy with double points. Of course, the absolute best thing that could happen is when you get all 3 bananas at once. Then, you have a frenzy of fruit all over your screen, moving slowly so that you could get an amazing combo and you’ll get double points for all of it! This doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it’s the best way to rack up those points!

Fruit Ninja High Scores

No one really knows what the highest score you can get in Fruit Ninja really is. That’s why it’s so fun to share your scores with your friends and compete for being known as the ultimate Fruit Ninja! The best thing about the game is that you can play Fruit Ninja online or on your Xbox or even on your phone, so no matter where you are, you could be playing this fun game. If you’re not sure that you could beat 1,000 points, keep trying. My personal best is just over 1,000 but I have a friend who has gotten over 1,300! I know there are other who have gotten even higher scores in Fruit Ninja!

Fruit Ninja Tips

If you want to get the highest scores possible, you’re going to need some Fruit Ninja tips to get you there!

There are several things you may want to try if you want to get a higher score and slice more fruit. There are different things that work best with different devices as well. For example, if you’re playing on a phone, you will do better on a phone with a smaller screen. That’s because you have to slide your finger for a shorter distance so your slices are more effective. With a smaller screen, the fruit are closer together and it’s easier to hit them. Now, that’s a Fruit Ninja tip that you may not be able to follow since you might not have another phone to play with, but it’s worth a thought.

When looking for Fruit Ninja tips, you’ll also find that several people recommend playing the game upside down. That’s right – just flip your phone upside down! What this accomplishes is that your hand will no longer be in the way when you’re getting ready to swipe. I know it often happens to me that my hand gets in the way and keeps me from seeing some more fruit that have come up, or even a bomb. That keeps me from getting all the points possible, so flipping the game upside down can really help get those extra combos. Another thing this does is helps you avoid bombs because they won’t be popping out of the bottom of the screen anymore, and it helps you get bananas because your fingers will already be near that part of the screen.

I’ve also read that on the iPhone 4, pressing the volume button will cause the fruit to slow down a little while they’re moving, so that gives you a little more time to swipe them and get combos. I haven’t tried this since I don’t play Fruit Ninja on iPhone, but you might as well give it a try if you have that kind of phone.

Of course, the most important tips are about actually playing better. One of the most important things you want to do is get the most and the biggest combos that you can. That will get you extra points once you go into Blitz mode and you’ll get even more when you’re on a Blitz and you get a Double Banana! That is the key, so keep that in mind. Instead of slicing all the fruit as they come up, wait for more fruit to come and see if you can connect them with a swipe to get a combo. Sometimes, it really pays off to wait until the last moment when the fruit are getting to the bottom of the screen and swipe only then. That way, you may get some fruit that are just coming up from the bottom of the screen too. This can be dangerous because there might be a bomb coming up in there, but more often than not it pays off in the form of a bigger combo.

Now that you have some Fruit Ninja tips to try out, go ahead and see if you can get a higher score! And of course, post some of your own tips in the comments section – after all, we’re here to help each other out!
