    Perhaps the best part is that this game isn't even complete. A whole new game mode is expected to be released sometime in the near future, so you're in fact investing in the game, which already costs practically nothing.

    Fruit Ninja is a really fun and immediate "sword simulator", with two game modes and lots of fruits to cut in mid-air. Due to a very repetitive gameplay, however, you could get bored soon.

    It's stupidly moreish, and we're kind of recommending it, despite the fact that there's not really much of a game here. [Aug 2010, p.100]

    Unfortunately, there's only one mode, making Fruit Ninja a one-trick pony. But considering the price of the game and those advanced online features, we'll let it slide. Clearly, the best type of app is the one you can't resist playing and/or can easily play any time, and that being said, this game is worth every penny.

    As simple and fun as Fruit Ninja evidently is, it feels like a Wario Ware game isolated for a single release.

    "Fruit Ninja" is very fun and enjoyable....for a brief period of time; it gets too repetitive like "Angry Birds".

    It's an addicting game, very fun on mobile. However, there are a lot of in-app purchases preventing me from giving it a 8.5/10. It's at most, an 8/10.

    Nice little mobile game. I miss good little high score games like this. They should put this on Switch.
